Yeah, I haven't got around to updating the front page. I'm writing a little program that'll deal with my photos but it's coming on really slowly, mainly because I'm busy. But that's why there's a picture of Devon there anyway. Ha ha, oh yeah. Yeah, I haven’t got around to updating the front page.

The ultimate 'best of'' link is on craigslist. I used to spend hours reading it while i was working notice on my old job. I like reading this blog as it reminds me of misbehaving in London http://scarlet-west.livejournal.com Beyond hers and yours i haven't really found any i like that much. not enough late night wine-equipped surfing i expect.

Can you imagine getting through a date sucessfully with a talking bollock?

Might I suggest that the problem lay with your slovenly desire to remain in bed and not with our waking hours and healthy appetite for contact with the world - although your desire to go back to sleep apparently dissappeared once replaced with the sadistic proceeds of your little game. The fact you could have been electrocuted only makes it worse. Dissapointed, Your Father Mark,

Their room is also next to mine, except I have the added problem of them being practically deaf! My Father also insists that upon this radio being turned on, he will take it in the shower, where he needs to turn it on even louder because of the added noise of the water. Later when he goes down for breakfast he turns the even bigger, louder and frankly more annoying radio on in the kitchen, yet he still leaves the one upstairs on! ARGH! But now dearest Mr Kenny I will be insearch of one of these magic lamps, can you tell me where I can find one please? My parents also do this, and have done since I can remember.

I found it quite comforting though... then again, their room was not bang next door to mine, it was down a corridor with my brother's in between... he was probably the one who would want to borrow your bedside light.
