Manky Keyboard
My Mac keyboard is filthy. Really. It’s beginning to sprout legs. So, I’m about to rip the keys off it and stick them in the dishwasher. Oh yes I am. Muhh

He’s really not a very nice man. In fact, one particularly girly jumped off the top of a building trying to get away from him. It’s also a little suspect that murdering innocent bystanders is a handy way to get health quickly :-/ Anyhoo, I’m on the road to Athens. In the background there’s a

Got this on a loaner – a friend of mine reckoned my boy would like it, given he’s really into greek mythology. Having seen it, however, there’s no chance in hell he’s playing it just yet – for a couple of reasons: Firstly, it really isn’t suitable for kids. It has an eighteen certificate on

I dunno why everyone slates this game. It’s ACEBEST. Alright, so it’s basically a horizontally scrolling beat-em-up but in 3D, but it’s with LIGHTSABRES and FORCE EVILNESS and tons of unlockable characters.

Everything’s started moving now. The passports have been checked and sent by the post office, coming in at a cool 190UKP for all five. Yikes. We should get the birth and marriage certificates returned to us in the next day or two, so we can get them sent off to the migration agents for copying

Lots of them. All in a dirty great big chain. First one to the Scottish Vocational Qualifications body to get duplicates of some certificates I’m missing, and the next to retrieve replacement birth and marriage certificates. Once I have birth and marriage certificates, I can get passports organised. Once we have passports and replacement certificates,

Well, in most ways we’re not any further on but in some ways we’re miles ahead of where we were. For one thing, I have my head around the documentation required by the ACS and it turns out I’m better qualified than I thought I was. I have a whole pile of essays to write,

I have an almost irresistable urge to write this entry in Martian, but I shall resist. ‘k, quick databurst. Third person, walking and flying a saucer, death ray, zapomatic, brain sucking anal probe (god knows what kind of traffic I’m going to get from google after this) and good old fashioned alien abductions.

Good heavens! What will they think of next! Science can now create food that tastes of precisely NOTHING. Nothing at all. Each Low Carb Rolo is a chewy slice of null. It has void taste. Remarkable.
