Wi-fi woo

Amused today to read about some cretin who claims to be allergic to wi-fi.
Of course it will be no surprise to know the rag source of this garbage is the Hitler supporting Daily Mail.
Of course if such a claim were true the DJ would be in luck, with a profile and a paranormal ability he [...]

Blackwood vodka

On a trip to the Ferry on Saturday I popped into Aitkens Wine. Looking at their vodka shelves I noticed 3 bottles of Blackwood Vodka.
Yoink.
I had a bottle before after searching for a few years and it was gorgeous. Later spotted some in a wine shop in Edinburgh for £20. Thought sod that and now [...]

Nerding out

Spent lunchtime today looking at the rumours of the re-release of Space Hulk

Rumoured Space Hulk contents
this is obviously exciting as if it is successful it means Games Workshop might look into re-releasing Hero Quest/Advanced Hero Quest/Warhammer Quest.

Other recent watches included Sickle (appalling), We Don’t Live Here Anymore [...]

Fecking neckbeards

I had heard great things about both Drupal [...]

Swines

Having checked whether it was man or swine it appears the parents both have swine flu. Both have been feeling totally run down all week, dad complained of his throat being agony.

Drop Down Menus

I have spent most of this evening wrestling with the UDM menu on the root of my site. I can get it to import sub-menu items from an external file, but not the main menu items.
So with the menu:

Home – static
Menu Top – static

Sub Menu – loads dynamically

Another – static

Very frustrating. It would mean doing [...]
