It’s a disgrace!

I haven’t posted for five days and, as a result, the nelefa.org home page was empty! I should be ashamed of myself. Except I’m not cos I’ve been too busy playing Halo 2 🙂

What’s the Elephant in Yak Attack all about?

Fnar. I’ve just been looking at my web stats and notice I’m getting a lot of hits from people googling for YAK ATTACK ELEPHANT. So, can I assume that there’s a bit of debate over how to get rid of the elephant in Yak Attack? Heehee 🙂 Should I tell? It’s quite an old game

Old postings ahoy!

As you can see by glancing at the rapidly expanding archive section on the right, I’ve started importing our old uJournal entries into MoveableType. It’s really good to see them again – there were some splendid adventures in 2002/2003. There were some really crap things as well – house burning down, being made redundant while

Bouncy children

Yikes! We were round at a friends halloween party last night. The house was stuffed full of about a million kids, all of whom were strung out on pepsi, sweeties and god knows what other dubious edibles. By the time we got them home, the kids were absolutely manic – wee darting eyes. Needless to

Iiiiiiiiiiiit’s Osama!

Well, who would have thought it. Three days ’til the U.S. Elections, Bush and Kerry are neck and neck, and whaddaya know – that Bin Laden chap pops up again to give any wavering voters a good ol’ chill down the spine, just in case they were swithering about which way to vote. The cynic
