I’ve sat here several times wondering what to write, haven’t really come up with anything of particular interest and just given up. So I am back again at an attempt to actually publish something…Nothing has really happened to me, except the kids have bogged off to Northern Ireland for a holiday, I expect next year they’re off to Iraq! I quite like the West Country, Devon and Cornwall…maybe I’m just a snob? I dunno. Still no luck in the employment area though got a couple of jobs next week, Interface Manufacturing sent me a letter telling me to push off, their loss! Still no news from the Lewes firm, will ring AgAiN! on Tuesday.
Bank Holiday Weekend…YAY!!! You know what that means for us Brits? It’s gonna piss down. Although July was record breaking in respect of temperatures, I do not function in the heat so I’m better off now with a mild 19 degrees outside… May seem a bit selfish to all you heat freaks out there but tough, if you don’t like it, F*** Off to Spain!
Erm…Near future? Who Knows….I don’t for sure. Haven’t heard from the illusive Cam for a while, I know he’s out there somewhere and sometimes reads this so Hello Cam…Bet I’m not too popular at The Beach these days eh?
Just on the off chance, can anyone loan me 10,000 quid?

Why do people have Online Blogs?
Is it that we expect the general population to be enthrilled with our…lifestyle? I have a friend who gave me a very good reason, but I don’t have reason to believe that I have the the same perspective on it. I don’t as a fact, I reckon I’m doing it for a bit of feedback, and the fact I am actually doing something that can, possibly reach…6 billion people? Now how was that possible in the past? These are of course rhetorical questions, we all now why…? But do We?
Rhetorical to the matter, it’s great to blurt out (an english term for the american readers…I see I have alot from the stats, means… Shout out loud in a vociferous manner!) and express feelings…is it not.
Final signing… It says nothing about me, but it makes me feel a damn sight better.

Well a wonderfully good morning to you all…even if it isn’t! Not really quite sure at the moment, that is, what to write, just felt the urge! Well there you go then, maybe I’ll pop back later with something of interest, but as it seems to be going , probably unlikely. Oh, by the way Chain is about to take over the world in an inflatable sausage, just for something to think about.

My PC has buggered up! After trying to sort a problem for a guy up the road and the fact Chain has had nothing but problems with his PC, I thought this might be a warning to me to back up mine…Too late, Saturday night (5th) mine followed suit with a strange message on log in telling me that it couldn’t start up using my original profile settings and started up with a temporary profile instead, all my original settings gone! Well gonna take the PC round to Chain tomorrow (Wed) and he’ll probably stand behind me laughing at me attempting to follow his instructions on how to get my settings back. There is a file in my docs and settings folder called ntuser.dat that is corrupt, don’t know whether that is the root of the problem but tried replacing it anyhow and when I rebooted, the error message had gone, and as I was rubbing my palms with glee, windows created yet another profile “craig.craig-AMD64”, the final part being the computer name… Hmmm? So given up, managed to enter all my email setttings to retrieve any emails, though these I’m sure will dissapear next time I reboot.
Sod all else to moan about, my Saturday night annual bbq was a bit of a disaster, very few turned up, though I left it late with the invites as was feeling shite all week, one of my nephews’ decided to boff all over the hall/toilet floor…nice! And not much food was eaten. My two Daughters’ whined all night about how irritating they found each other, and of course the PC I’d set up for the music was happily re-setting all night. Next year I think I’ll buy a PS2 with Guitar Hero/Singstar as I reckon it would go down like a bomb!
For me, still very little in the way of work, applying for a position in Hastings that looks promising, still haven’t had word from the Lewes based company about the position of Production Engineer, a job I would find quite challenging and am quite anticipated about.
Right that’s my Whinging over with for a few days or so! Hopefully my next entry will be a more positive one. Till then.

Well haven’t made an entry for a while so thought a good idea for an update. To add a bit to this site, which lets face it is pretty bland, I’ve added a coupla bits including downloads of some of the old Tat I’ve got junking up my hard-drive. Erm…Not much happened really, so i’ll leave it until I have some interesting stuff to write.
For some reason this poxy site doesn’t work in Internet Explorer which cheeses me right off as it’s generally the most widely use browser. So scroll down for the links until I sort it out.
Well I finally managed to edit the code so this site works in Internet Explorer, at least I think it does, I’m assuming that IE works differently with box models than Firefox which is kinda crap really but never mind. If there’s anything dodgey about the layout in IE please let me know either in the comments section or click here and use the email link.
