And it’s, like, the coolest TV experience ever.

The Pace Twin is to Freeview what Sky+ is to Sky. I’ll post more on it later, but basically you can pause live TV, record one digital channel and watch another and record to an inbuilt 20GB hard drive with 10 hours recording time and the opportunity to archive onto standard VHS tapes as well. Now all they need to sort out is that lack of any quality programmes in the weekend to watch in the first place!

Um, that’s it! That’s all I wanted to say!

I don’t care about your fancy ‘interfaces’ – QBASIC rocks and always will do. I love my multiple choice QBASIC tests. All hail QBASIC!

For more madness, watch BBC FOUR tonight at 11pm for The Prisoner, for episodes 3 and 4. It’s almost as good as QBASIC, you know.

It’s also my birthday tomorrow!

Be seeing you!

Disturbing news, people. I’ve just been informed that, apparently, some members of management at school may be reading this blog! Yeah, I know what you’re thinking – at least some people can be bothered to! But seriously, if anyone from my school is reading this, I didn’t mean anything bad I’ve ever said about the school, or the amount of coursework, or the colour some idiot (um, I mean ‘creative) decided to re-paint the Maths department doors with, or anything! Honest…

But I’ve realised, boy do I need to watch what I write here! Sorry, but principles are fine as long as you don’t have to get detention for them

Still on the subject of school, Nic Parkes’ local news website has been kind (some would say foolish) enough to publish a column I’ve written on secondary schools. Check it out here, especially those from senior management who aren’t considering a job in a private or selective school anytime soon. (But hey, guys, I’ve tried to promote Value Added as much as possible.)

According to Google blogs should be short so let’s wrap it up now… at Parent’s Evening tonight I was told I could be ‘a marketing director for Coca Cola.’ Disturbing news indeed.

… Windows XP rocks.

It’s stable, colourful, friendly and oh so brilliant! All the bad stuff about Windows pretty much disappears with XP.

To all Linux lovers… nah, you’re still pretty cool.

Oh, and to deviate completely, if anyone under 20 is reading this you’ll definitely know someone who always writes with ‘wot’ ‘wiv’ and’ ‘bi’

They’ll probably also write ‘Your sad’ and other grammar sins.

This is beginning to irritate me a lot now. Hey, I can’t spell very well. I have no idea why you should fragment a sentence to avoid a double something-or-other. I even say ‘Bob and me’ instead of ‘Bob and I.’ But really, please learn to write just a little bit. It’s less painful to read.
