BMovie / Camden / Old friends

[mattp]

I went to bmovie last night for the dirst time, and it was excellent. Fantastic music and great people make for a good night. Was especially good to catch up with bluehelen after losing contact for something approaching 6 years.

djm4, duranorak, adjectivemarcus - Here's the source for the story I was telling you about: Tom Baker will be the voice of BT Text for 3 months from February.

Got back home and did a bit of rearch for work and went to bed some time after 5am. My sleep cycle is highly skewed, but it'll be useful for clubbing this evening.

Today was spent in Camden with bluehelen. Right now I'm cooking dinner and will be heading off to the Dev shortly to see cyberpunkgrrl and then off to Slimes.

I got this off the BBC website and obviously you could do a million things with this, make it veggie, make it spicier.

aye it's pretty nice, but i think maybe 2 cans of chopped tomato is a bit much, but have a play with it, see what you think :o)

hi matt, just wanted to know if you'd taken herding cats down or if it was my internet fooking up.

Sorry. I'd let it expire, but it should have been renewed. I shall prod appropriate people.

All being well it should be back in a day or two.

Thankoo :)

Now up and running. It won't be up for renewal for another 2 years.
