La Quinta. A & B courses, my favourites. Weather perfect.

Just seen a picture of the new pavilion at Headingley. It's...erm...distinctive.

Flicking through newspapers at the airport, thinking "I read this yesterday".

Is James Tredwell (http://bit.ly/aroQNM) next in the firing line or is he extrovert enough to escape Mushy's clutches as @swannyg66 has?

Think I'll pop to Spain for a few days and play some golf. Be good while I'm gone.

Apparently I'm running Microsoft Windows Version 6.1. Where did the other 0.9 go?

Why is there no central data source for rail ticketing websites? It's madness for each site to collate TOC data itself.

Fewer and fewer voters are getting their info from media that is owned by
vested interests. Hurray for the internet!

Welcome home everybody

...and that's without the browser toolbars and other junk I had to delve deep to deselect from the install HPfail

On the downside I'm now installing 672MB of driver files. Nice work, HP.

My new printer has its own intranet site.

The printer I've just bought can generate Sudokus. The future is here.

Made a chana masala last night as good as any I've tasted. Even better this morning. Starting point: http://bit.ly/chholay

Taken most of the day to get Bugzilla installed and running (actually
half the day was taken failing to get Jira installed).

Cory Doctorow uses the same FUD tactics as the entertainment industry to
spread his apocalyptic view of the deact http://bit.ly/ctLvwm

Had my first play with an iPad tonight at @dittotv. More warmly inclined
to it as a result. Nice user experience.

At Fatboys Diner, Trinity Buoy Wharf. A gem. Sadly this area is slated for redevelopment. Get here soon.

Very nice to see Bairstow jr in the Yorkshire side. Now if Sidebottom jr would just come back we could see c Bairstow b Sidebottom again

Network Solutions have allowed my business to slip away from them without any attempt to retain me. That's hosting and email for 6 domains. Someone's asleep at the wheel.

Maybe I should put together a whoshouldntyouvotefor site

I have been told who I should vote for by http://ping.fm/0TjuV No surprises, but I'm more bothered about the showstoppers in all the major parties' manifestos.

Looks like the Masters is going to be won by the Jacques Kallis of golf

When will Peter Alliss retire? The man has been an embarrasment to himself and the BBC for at least a decade.

After last night's shenanigans I now have an interest in Priest's Leap, Madison Du Berlais, Piraya and Conna Castle grandnational

The MD of my service provider has a blog. His post of April 8 didn't mention the DEAct. My comment did. http://ping.fm/qFrTi

I have asked my service provider to make the same pledges as Talk Talk (http://ping.fm/G1A2D). Please do the same.

Maybe if we paid MPs twice as much we might get a few decent candidates. Halve the number of constituencies to finance it. ge2010

From this web page we can see the lowest unscored total for a batsman in a test match is 229 (therefore no longer an unGoogleable cricket question) http://ping.fm/5VRjZ

In the history of cricket, overs have been 4, 5, 6 and 8 balls long. Never 7.
