Oh dear, how are we going to afford this? The current Boundary Park is only half finished, and only last season we were in administration. 19th in Leauge 1, isn’t the best moment to announce spending £20 million.

More site tweaks
I’ve made some small changes to the layout of my blog, most aren’t that obvious but I’ve styled the book covers on my rubbish book reviews, moved the style sheet into it’s own file and tidied up some bad CSS that I had written that Firefox found, but which Internet Explorer ignored.
I’ve also created a Javascript/mySQL/php/.htaccess RSS Newsfeed sidebar function. (See right at the bottom of the sidebar, BBC News). Beta Tester are welcome to try it on their blogs. Please leave a comment, and I’ll contact you about knocking up some code.
A Faint Cold Fear
End of Blog Hopping
A couple of weeks ago I posted this about Blog Hopping and the Blogger NavBar.
Due to some evil person forcing spyware on my computer, i’ve now stoped, and removed the NavBar.
Murder One
Whilst flicking through this months Empire Magazine, I saw an advert for Season One of Murder One, and instantly had to buy it.
Ok it doesn’t come out til Monday, but it is pre-ordered on Amazon for me 🙂 (only £29.99)
For those who never saw it (why not!), it’s a US Criminal Law show, featuring shock horror, only one case, which is finally solved at the end of 23 episodes.
Unfortunatly for us in the UK, the Americans just didn’t get it, and whilst they did make a Season 2 they dropped the people in the cast.
Can’t wait to rip the DVD, convert the episodes into P800 friendly format, and watch the episodes each day on the train to work.
Gmail
I have some spare invites for Gmail accounts.
If you want one email me at ryancullen@, well you can guess the rest (no, not hotmail.com!)
What a disgrace
The Olympics seemed to be well run and well hosted. That was until the 200 meters mens final.
The Greeks booed the athletes, because their man wasn’t there.
Why wasn’t he there?
Because he failed to do two random drug tests, had a motorbike ‘accident’, pulled out of the games himself, and his coach was found to have a large supply of performance enhancing drugs.
A Short History of Nearly Everything
A good read, very much like other Bill Bryson books, except this isn’t travel but science. Easy to read and understand, although I found I didn’t really learn much, but that might be because I was a keen scientist a school.

Satellite fault shuts train doors
Hi-tech satellite systems used to open train doors automatically have been failing, leaving people trapped on trains in the South of England.
Now I’m no train expert, but why do you need a satellite to open a door on a train. Surely all you need is a train driver, and a open door button?
Windows XP Service Pack 2
Finally got round to manually installing SP2 after it never arrived via AutoUpdate.
Can’t see much difference, and as I already have Norton Firewall configured, the Microsoft Firewall is pretty pointless.
Oh well, at least the machine is a bit safer.
