Time for some changes

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!

The holiday starts HERE!

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 pics - I miss the 911/DeLorean combo. What a 2-car garage! Think I might head back that way actually - 911 first and then the DeLorean when time/space and money allow. It's an aim - so what if it takes me years? :D

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? :P

So - 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 starts and finishes the car-show season for me (Billing and Festival of Speed). Next week I'm in Newquay and then it's business as usual!

I'll be [i]right back[/i]!

Moved!

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 saw the budget? (not the actual thing, obviously). I'm glad that the government thinks it can stop under-age and binge drinking via the 3p increase in tax on Cider. Oh yes. Watch out you drinkers.

And what the hell is this? As if tax bands A through G wasn't hard enough to work out - now there are 13 of the ruddy things! And adding "gas guzzler" taxes (like the US) doesn't exactly help either. The message being "don't buy new" rather than "don't buy a big-dirty-engined-car". Ho hum, I guess they're still living in la-la land.

Typing that makes me think - must take some house pics.

A New Year...

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 - so far only taking four lousy months. The Camaro should appear in production form (the prototype is looking damned close to the concept) and now the Calibra is gone, a year of shows with either the Monaro - or nothing at all (and me just spectating). Who knows. Could be interesting.

Is HD DVD dead? Hmm - not sure myself. That's not because I just got a player either. I think it's still very early on and the real adoption hasn't happened - but I will admit that it's down to distribution and without the big players, it's hard to see how it'll fare.

Probably a good movie year as well, what with Cloverfield, Indy 4 and a raft of other big films on the way. Better than 2007? Well, what was your favourite movie last year? I can hardly remember...

If you've not seen JC's new DVD - borrow it. It's worth it just to see some rather expensive metal being thrown around. I particularly liked the little Gallardo. :P

See ya.
