I just had my last day of school uniform (yay) although I suppose now I will have to choose what to wear each day (hmm) which could mean I’ll have to get up earlier (noo)
In other news – Internet Explorer 7 will have tabs – a fantastic new innovation from Microsoft there 
Seriously, I’m pleased. I still have a soft spot for IE, partly because it opens when I click it, not half an hour later in 3 windows. But as always with IE7 – we’ll see…
Shout out to Sanna, who is like a female Nic when it comes to grammar.
Update – I’m not sure how I forgot (!) but last Friday I also had my last compulsory PE lesson EVER! YAY!
Lord Pingu (long may he be blessed with igloos and things) has fixed the comment form so that email addresses are now remembered along with your name and website. Hooray!
I’ve been watching clips of the brilliant Daily Show for ages now, but today MediaGuardian reports that More4 have secured the UK rights:
“Other acquired programming will include US comedian Jon Stewart’s much lauded satirical Comedy Central programme The Daily Show and More4 will also take over broadcasting The West Wing from E4.”
This is great news – it will be must see TV for me, and I’m really looking forward to the launch of More4 after all the waiting! Freeview – you now have your ‘killer app’
Just got back from my second Hat Trick recording – Room 101. Was expecting it to be good since it’s hosted by Paul Merton, someone I’ve loved for ages. And then he announced the guest – Alan Sugar! Fucking hell! Paul Merton and Alan Sugar sitting together chatting, and I was 3 rows away from the front… that was just spectacular. Agreed with all his choices as well, he makes a great impression as someone who really speaks his mind and doesn’t act up for the cameras. He was also very honourable – not mentioning people by name when slagging them off. An all round decent bloke is the feeling I got.
I repeat – WOW!
(Oh, and no, I’m not after a job Sir Alan – he did put schmoozers in after all!)
My room’s been completely cleared out by now, including the PC, which is why I’m composing this blog entry from the middle of the hall at the top of the stairs. Tasha finds it hilarious, since now she can look over my shoulder as I type.
Katie (the younger one) is going off to the Gordon Brown Centre tomorrow, following a rite of passage which continues with the Isle of White next year. She’s still awake – but probably only because I’ve got the radio on. In the middle of the hallway.
Using a wonderful ‘Grade Calculator’ our ICT teacher gave us, I’ve worked out that given my coursework grades, I only need 46% on the final paper to get an A* GCSE. Needless to say, it’s not at the top of my revision timetable.
