Another day, another lurgi

Poor wee Tristan has it now. Fortunately, it had the good grace to wait for his birthday to pass before descending on him from a great height. So, they’re all off school again. It’ll be nice once we move – being right across from the school will make things a good deal more convenient than

Wohlendet, das ewigen werk!

Well, I’ve finally managed to find the time to add what pictures I can scrounge together to the old journal entries. Quite a traumatic thing to do, really – particularly for the August and September 2003 entries. I haven’t looked at those photos in quite a long time. Anyhoo, today was Tristan’s birthday. He was

Torus Trooper

Now this is the coolest thing ever 🙂 It’s kinda like a precursor to Jeff Minter’s forthcoming Unity, in a way. It’s a zippy zappy zoomy type thing and more than worthy of a look. What’s more, it doesn’t cost anything. Torus Trooper: http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~cs8k-cyu/windows/tt_e.html

Old postings

Well, as many ujournal entries as could be recovered are now in situ. There appears to have been a slight hiccup in the recovery process caused by me inadvertently removing older entries while the import for still in progress. As a result, a couple of entries from Feb/March 2003 have gone awol. As I recall,

Import madness

Well, the aboutmylife.net import seems to have finished. A couple of articles have been scarfed – the dates seem to be wrong – but they’re mostly intact. I’ve already added the entries from 2004 to this blog and I’ll be adding the rest tonight. Not really looking forward to it – 2003 was incredibly crap.

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
