This week (depending on which country you lived in) brought to a close the popular television series Lost.  I have a lot of fond memories of both the show and the countless hours we spent speculating on the assorted mysteries that it served up each week. Can you remember when you first watched the show?  I was working for Orange ...

Jen and I went to a killer Mexican themed party last night.  It was pretty damn great.  The tequila and margheritas were free flowing all night, almost everyone there was in costume and there was some cool stuff there like sombrero shaped cake, sparklers, a fire-twirling lady and all the aforementioned booze.  It makes me wonder why I haven’t been ...

Not sure what kind of fantasy they had in mind when they made the character Vanille.

So with a Mexican stand-off in place between Brown and Cameron, and the election results left gridlocked in a hung parliament, its time for everyone to pony up to Nick Clegg and see if they can woo him into a coalition that will ultimately decide who governs the UK.  We could be talking about a Progressive Coaltion here folks.  As ...

Last week I received a Facebook message out of the blue from Kolitha who told me he was going to be in town over the weekend.  It was the first time I’d have a chance to catch up with my old flatmate from university since 2003.  Jesus, had it really been seven years? It was great to see the guy.  ...

The Halo Reach multiplayer beta was made available to the public today so I thought I would download it and give it a go. For the uninitiated, Halo Reach is the final Halo game to be made by Bungie before they move onto bigger and better things.  Its also the first time they’ve entirely overhauled the multiplayer component of the ...
