Go, Muriel!

“ID cards will make our private lives impossible – [Sunday Herald]: Muriel Gray argues that the introduction of identity cards will not help prevent such atrocities as the Soham murders, instead they will make the lives of law-abiding people a nightmare” This illustrates perfectly the arguments I’ve been trying to make for years but have

It’s orrible!

Well, constant nelefans will remember that, previously on nelefa.org, we were all up to our eyes in lurgi. Well, we still are, and it grows increasingly unpleasant with every passing day. However, we’re not going to dwell on the lurgi, are we? Course not – we’re far too civilised for that kind of carry on.

Go, Oz-man!

Another day, another lurgi

Poor wee Tristan has it now. Fortunately, it had the good grace to wait for his birthday to pass before descending on him from a great height. So, they’re all off school again. It’ll be nice once we move – being right across from the school will make things a good deal more convenient than

Now this is the coolest thing ever 🙂 It’s kinda like a precursor to Jeff Minter’s forthcoming Unity, in a way. It’s a zippy zappy zoomy type thing and more than worthy of a look. What’s more, it doesn’t cost anything. Torus Trooper: http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~cs8k-cyu/windows/tt_e.html

Alright, alright, I’ll give you an update!

I’ve started cutting the images now. Basically, Chris Wild has supplied the original graphics which he ripped as part of his disassembly of the game and I’m busily chopping and converting them. Basically, I’m scaling them by two so I can work in 640×480 without bugging some poor soul to do the graphics until I’m

Grumbles

The worthy Simon Brattel (for it is he) late of Design Design and more recently of, erm, Design Design, has a shiny new web log in which he proves, repeatedly, that his life is at least and order of magnitude more bizarre than my own. It’s humbling to be in the electronic presence of someone

Gah – the boak returns

Matthew and Debbie have a stinking lurgi of some description at the moment. Not happy bunnies. Lots of sore throats and raging fevers and stuff. Yuk.
