Sudoku Champion
Here’s the evidence: BlogExplosion.com have apparently recorded my fastest time of 51 seconds on a fiendishly difficult game of Sudoku! This is more than enough to prove my genius-ness and my skillful Sudoku solving skills. (The screenshot was not edited in any way! Okay, the 22:22 is the real time I solved it in, which, … Continue reading
Typing Skills
Got £5 to spare? Well, I don’t really, but felt like it was a bit of fun to spend it on getting certified typing skills! As you can see from the picture, I’ve appeared for the typing skills certification. My results: Gross: 71 wpm, Net (including errors): 68 wpm at 95% accuracy. Something good to … Continue reading
Google AdSense
For those observant readers amongst you (yes, there are a few), you will have noticed a slight addition on the right hand side of my website. That would be the Google AdSense advert thingie-majig. Ever since I started my proper websites – proper meaning something more than “Website under construction” + many moving gif’s + … Continue reading
Spam war
Well, one week back in the UK so let’s see what I’ve achieved. I’m temporarily back in my own room now that my brother and his girlfriend are on their holiday somewhere on an island in Spain. It really does seem that we have overgrown this little house of ours. I suppose now that all … Continue reading
So long desktop
I arrived back home with little trouble last night. It was another nice flight from flyniki.com – in-flight drinks and sandwiches included with the flight, light entertainment from Mr Bean and Goofy and a choice of magazines and newspapers, all for only 39€. You can hardly complain with that – which is exactly why I … Continue reading

SEF = Search Engine Friendly
Well I’ve been working on my site again…this was after I managed to get VPN working to my college so I could access journals and papers so I could do some research, without leaving the comfort of my room, for my project. It turned out that the firewall on my Linksys WAG54G adsl router was … Continue reading
Guestbook fixed!!
I had only just realised it wasn’t possible to sign my guestbook :/. Now it’s fixed. I think I traced the problem to Xaneon Extensions (beta2) which controls the output of the URLs in the address bar. For those experiencing the same problem with Mambo 4.5.2 and Akobook 3.42 what I did was set Components>Extensions>Features>”Enforce … Continue reading
Going home..
I’m going home for the weekend…to get proper food!! Been a bit lazy with cooking since exams have finished. I would have thought it’d be the other way round?!?Anyway, I’ll be away for a while and currently waiting for adsl to be activated at home, so no internet connection. Still a few things to fix … Continue reading
Revision again
So I finally got into revision now. Currently trying to get my head around four-vectors and tensors. Crazy stuff for Advanced Classical Physics. What fun. Still got lots to do. Read notes, problem sheets, past papers and the dreaded comprehensive papers. Getting a little distracted these days. Last week, we (brothers and myself) managed to … Continue reading
