Time for some changes

2009-05-28T15:42:00.002+01:00

Yeah - I don't have time to maintain this site so I think I might change it - with the uplift in toys like Twitter (@willisit) which is just SO easy, I think I need to get that and this in line. Coming (soon I hope)....

Hec-tic!

What a few weeks it's been! I changed job (hinted at in my last post in July) and have been on holiday - not to mention away with work as I'm now a consultant... :)Still, something funny for you here at Clarkson island.Also, here with Will Ferrell answering questions :)Lastly - I had the Monaro on the rollers and she made 440hp at the flywheel. Heh.

Things change

As of the 15th August 2008, I will no longer be in the employ of Fat Face. :(Still, I am moving on to a new company and a new role. Virtualisation Consultant. Cool eh? More detail soon!

You can see how out of touch I am with the blog because below I used [i] tags for an italic font and got nothing.. ah well, at least I remember the correct way to do it!I'm on holiday from today. Yes, holiday. I'm off to Newquay so my new found blogging love will have to wait a week (yeah yeah, six months).Might have some cool news on my return as well. :)Just looking at my old library of car

It's me!

March? MARCH?Good god man, what the hell have I been doing?!Well I'll say that I don't really have the time to blog these days and that's pretty obvious but I reckon I might take this back to basics and start again with a new theme. I mean, I'm here now aren't I? :PSo - I'm all moved with Gemma (have been for a few months) and things are all good. Life is hectic as usual and this week kinda

Moved!

2008-03-13T08:18:00.002Z

Silence is golden. So I'm told. And, coming from me it must be true. :)Anyway, after a long and sometimes painful time, Gemma and I have moved. We've gone from a cozy 1 bedroom house to a 3 bedroom house. I've literally only just gotten the internet up (was without that for ages.. and it was awful!) so I might even blog a bit more. I'm certainly back in WoW for those that care (Hellfire).So, you

A New Year...

2008-01-08T08:24:00.000Z

Hopefully this year will see more blogging; or an admittance I don't have the time and I'll kill it. Or start again. Or just redesign it and get the archives working. Or.Anyway; it's 2008. I'll be 29 + 365 days old this year and that's probably quite something. I don't personally believe it and if I'm lucky, no one will notice.It should be an exciting year all round though. A house move for me -

I wouldn't usually post about films I've seen, but this one is the exception. The reviews are probably spot on but blimey, it made me jump!Worth a watch on DVD (less scary I suspect) but I really enjoyed it. :D

Cool driving!

What a hectic few months! Yes, I suck at blogging. I used to be rather good.So what's new?Well - I've been working hard on two jobs, getting my VMWare qualification (done!), selling my house (done!) and generally running around like a blue arsed fly.I even managed a holiday.So what else? Um. Halo? Yes, Halo. It rules. You should go play it... oh, you already have? And completed it? K... Um....

Well, DMC will already build you a car from New Old Stock - but this sounds more a like they'll manufacture the parts themselves. Doable, but costly I suspect.I wonder if it'll have the updated parts (new dash, wheels etc)?I look forward to seeing this... clipped from www.engadget.comDeLorean being brought back to
