Corrections

Made a couple of changes to the domain-on-DDNS tutorial page, the setup as described wasn’t working properly due to permissions on the no-ip config file and also the zone reload method. Should work now, I hope nobody had a go at it yet…

Annie Bowerman

I’ve been off work today (first of three long weekends to use up my holiday before term ends) and I had told Mum I’d take her out for the day. We were going to go to Malham Tarn for a walk but it’s been pissing it down. All day. Again.So, I asked her where she wanted to go instead and after some deliberating over a cup of tea she went “Pudsey cemetary!”. Yup, time to get back on the family history trail!

Uploaded new ‘cherry’ style to replace the aging desert one! I wanted to do something more graphic-designy but, basically, I don’t know anything about graphic design. So, the central point is another photograph, or rather a silly triptych (which I did take).

Ubuntu CRON weirdness

Hrm, this is odd! I’ve been trying to work out on and off all week why a scheduled daily backup script won’t run on the new Ubuntu web server.

Added a large tutorial on managing a domain using DDNS to computing section.

Site is ready for a new design, if only I was better at graphic design…

One Man Star Wars

Me and Steve have been to see the One Man Star Wars Show at St. George’s Hall in Bradford this evening.

It was absolutely brilliant, the bloke ran around and acted out A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi in three 20 minute segments; I don’t know where he found the energy!

There was also a warm up guy who did a spot at the beginning and he was great as well.Definitely 15 quid well spent!

Show time!

I’ve been to the Leeds College of Art and Design Fashion Show at the Royal Armouries this afternoon to see what the Fashion students have been up to this year!

It was very good, having it in a professional auditorium with pro sound/lighting etc. definitely upped the ante over having it in the refectory as we did last year. Also, the models were all stunning once again! :)

Final Fantasy 12

I have finished Final Fantasy 12 in 73 hours!

I have to say it’s one of the best games I’ve ever played, and probably the best RPG I’ve ever played (it’s on a par with FF7 and in all honesty is slightly better, though I’m loathed to admit it!).
