In keeping with trying to add something every week or so, this is what I received in the post this week. This is my Great North Run runner number. As you can see it displays that my starting zone is E, this puts me just behind the semi-pro runners. When signing up for the run, I gave an estimated finish time of roughly 1:50, which was very ambitious at the time, and I don’t image i’ll do it in less…
So, this is my first post in nearly a year! I massively failed at my original aim to keep the blog updated with an entry per week or so, but I’m going to try and set a more realistic aim of at least one entry per month. I’ve been meaning to get round to making a hard drive clock for months now and as per usual it got forgotten or put to the back of my mind while I…
I bought a bike tonight, first road bike I’ve had, and it’s going to take some getting used to, but I like it! 16 speed Fausto Coppi Gavia road bike. Shimano Sora kit throughout. The frame is made from aluminium.
I recently managed to get a compact PC (eMachines ER1402) for a bargain price for £99.99, in the Ebuyer “MAYhem” sale. After reading around, I decided to turn the PC into a media centre, using XBMC, to allow me to create something compact enough to have either attached to the back of the TV or to tuck away with the AV receiver. I wanted the media centre to be able to stream my High Definition content from my server,…
So I haven’t posted in a while, and tonight I made some pizza. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out, it may have been a bit simple, but I haven’t cooked pizza in about two years, when me and my friend Kyle attempted it. I used a recipe available here, and just added a few little things, like cheese and pepperoni in the crust! Heres the outcome: Hopefully I’ll be making some more with the left over yeast…
So, on Friday 8th April 2011 I handed in my final year project. Although I still have another research paper to do, this was a massive weight off my mind! The total page count was 80, and 29,000 odd words. I’ve still got to demo my program in May some time too, but I’m not too worried about that. Here’s a few snaps of the weather of the hand in and the finished and bound document. After the hand…
One Assignment totally finished, now just 3 more left in the next 4 weeks. Time seems to be running out faster than ever. Can’t wait for some time off!
We saw this F1 car parked randomly at uni. The funny part is that it had been given a parking ticket!
It suddenly hit me today, that in just over a month i’ll be handing in my last assignment. My final year project hand in date is only a mere 3 weeks away, which is very scary, lots of programming and writing still to do! As well as this I still have a massive Ethical Hacking assignment and an Advanced Forensics report due this week and next week. The 8th April can’t come quick enough! On the upside, hopefully playing football again…
