Nudist Trampolining

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

No really.
Trampolining seems to be the in thing in this part of the world, where every back garden (except ours) boasts one, so in this lovely warm summer (sarcasm off) what could be better than flapping your bits and pieces in the air?
Hmm, OK, so try this nudist trampolining game anyway. I managed 1157 on [...]

Read What You’re Signing

Monday, July 30th, 2007

Do you make informed decisions before signing things?
Before forming opinions?
Before adopting a point of view you call your own?
If so, you’re probably unlike 99% of the human race, as this short video shows - ban diHydrogen Monoxide!

I like Penn & Tellers Bullshit show, and while sure, they’re as unbiased as the rest of the [...]

Unfortunately you have to go all the way to South Africa, but I think it’d be worth it. Best to pack some rubber underwear though. With elasticated leg cuffs for the benefit of those below…..

The Best Way To Borrow Money [P]

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

Is probably not to borrow it at all, but that isn’t really a realistic proposition for most of us, so when you do have to take out a loan, for whatever purpose, the next best thing you can do is to shop around for the best deal.
Having recently returned from holiday, where the natural tendency [...]

Frisbee Trick

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

We picked up a frisbee to mess about with at the campsite, and the thing was deadly. It’s actually just a circle of plastic, with the middle cut out (so not a frisbee then, which is actually a trade name-what else do you call them?) and you can throw it a couple of hundred yards [...]

The Last Word On Intelligent Design

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

Moderator: We’re here today to debate the hot new topic, evolution versus Intelligent Des—
(Scientist pulls out baseball bat.)
Moderator: Hey, what are you doing?
(Scientist breaks Intelligent Design advocate’s kneecap.)
Intelligent Design advocate: YEAAARRRRGGGHHHH! YOU BROKE MY KNEECAP!
Scientist: Perhaps it only appears that I broke your kneecap. Certainly, all the evidence points to the hypothesis I broke [...]

Fancy A Flickr?

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

As some of you may know, I also run a photoblog by the name of Autofocused, where I generally put up a shot a day from my travels.
I had been using Divshare for the hosting of these photos, but as they now seem to be going offline on a daily basis, taking my photos with [...]

Yorkshire Snaps

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

For the second week of our holiday, we drove the 300 miles from Oban to the excellent Vale of Pickering campsite in Yorkshire. Everything a campsite should be, upon seeing the playground, Patrick remarked that ‘it was just like Heaven’….

We weren’t far from Scarborough which we visited on the Monday, and the first thing we [...]

Astrosaurs - Away!

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

One of the highlights of the holiday was the boy’s discovery of the excellent Astrosaurs books by Steve Cole. We had wandered into a bookshop in Oban which had a special offer on 3 for 2 so we all got a book each, and the boys were taken in by the picture of space-suit clad [...]
