Now this is fun. The Last Shadow Puppets are the brilliant Alex Turner, singer and songwriter of those lovely Arctic Monkeys and his friend Miles Kane of The Rascals, a band I currently know nothing about, but will be checking out in due course. Alex clearly has far too many ideas fizzing around in his […]
CAPTCHAs[1], that is. Those nasty things that display some hideously distorted text which you’re meant to be able to read then type into a box to prove that you’re human. Well, last time I checked, I appeared to be either human or a reasonable facsimile thereof[2], but I often find that CAPTCHAs are very hard […]
On Friday, I had one of my lunchtime walks with the camera. My main target was the Newcastle City Library construction site, where I took some more record shots of the progress of the work. I’ll be posting those later, but I thought I’d make a start with this one of some pigeons who seemed […]
Oh dear. This is really not going to plan, is it?
I blame the weather.[1] Or something. I’ll aim for more of that self-discipline stuff starting tomorrow. Probably.

If it hadn’t been for my webserver’s fit of the sulks, I’d have posted this last night. But here we go with the first episode of the fourth series of the revived Doctor Who, or the 30th overall, if you prefer to look at it that way. For reasons best known to the BBC, it […]

While I do most of my photo processing in Lightroom these days, and the new features in Lightroom 2.0 will probably make that even more true, there are times when only Photoshop will do. The trouble with Photoshop is that it does so much that it can be quite hard to find out how to […]
I do love this indecisive weather. Last week, we had some nice mild, sunny days. Just the thing for this time of year, and most welcome. But the weekend has seen a bit of a change. Yesterday morning there was some singularly nasty driving, cold rain. Driving straight into my face as I walked up […]
Anyone trying to visit Losing it[1] yesterday may have been disappointed[1] to be greeted by rude messages from their web browsers telling them that the site could not be contacted. What with one thing and another, I didn’t notice there was a problem until I went to start writing up last night’s Doctor Who episode, […]
