Bet it costs a fortune to heat.

Freebies

I’m not a pheasant plucker, I’m a pheasant plucker’s son
I’m only plucking pheasants ’till the pheasant plucker comes.

Creature

January 15th, 2013

Cute animal thing I met in the woods. Possibly a baby fox? Blodgett’s creature identification chart ambiguous between this and a carrot.

Forgot

January 15th, 2013

Here are some photos from December that I forgot to post. From the waterlogged wastelands north of Slough.

Go Go Hastings United

January 5th, 2013

In the most significant event to occur in my home town for nearly 1000 years, this afternoon Hastings United, currently playing in the prestigious Ryman stationary league, will play Middlesbrough in the 3rd round of the FA cup.

UPDATE: they lost

Fishy

December 23rd, 2012

My brother works at the local aquarium and as it was quiet this weekend he let us in for free. Lot’s of fishy things in tanks to take photos of. The jelly fish took endless amounts of fiddling but I’m super pleased with the results.

Updated Lunar Lander

December 16th, 2012

I’ve released a minor update to my Lunar Lander clone. Version 0.6.3 0.6.4 fixes a build error when using recent versions of Boost that a couple of people have noticed. There’s also a new Dutch translation:

Download it here: lander-0.6.4.tar.gz

UPDATE: apparently some configure script changes I made cause breakage on FreeBSD so I’ve released another update, 0.6.4. Rapid Innovationtm mantra of the day: deployment is testing.

Autumnal

November 27th, 2012

Went for a wander on Sunday the weekend before last from Wallingford to Swyncombe Down and then to Henley. Really nice day for taking photos: today’s theme is trees.
