Seein' Ducks & Goats & Pigs

*as Flo said to me when refusing to get dressed this morning.

I Dood It!

As the Flopsy One would say.

I bit the bullet (as Chidsy would say).

You twat (as Buck would reply).

You GEEK! (everybody else has said).

I bought one....oh yes I have. Strictly speaking, it's pre-ordered due to slightly more orders than they thought...But, I've entered sooperseekrit numbers, confirmed the deets and am afearing Customs Charges and delays due to too many other idiots.

The exchange rate is good right now though and let's face it, after all this time I should have a phone that I can hack the fuck out of!

I might fork-off (ooer) a blog with stuff on this, depends how good my skillz turn out to be...or whether I just bought an expensive "talking-point" paperweight (i.e. brick), and I just sheep along with people actually doing worthy things with it. Or shlep...I'm not sure.

I have plans though: Google's a target...all those lovely open API. Synch'd, editable documents publishable to the web Sir?....thanks! Google Maps overlays using the AGPS? Nice.

Lordy, there's a lot of core broken things in there which I am in no way qualified to submit even a comment on the code, but I do so love the prospect of writing something *I* (at least) find useful....

Think I need to look at Python too!

Daddy's Turn?


I declined....hey, would you like to drink a mixture of Banana Soy Milk, Apple Yoghurt and toddler spit?

Sweet!

Petition to remove two billboards
More than 1,200 people in Bristol have signed a petition calling for two billboards to be removed. The campaign, organised by St Werburghs Neighbourhood Association (St WNA) aims to replace the boards at Ashley Hill with a landscaped gateway to the area.

In other news...

Tadah!...or not

Have/Had a great photo of Flo suprised while doing a "tadah!" to herself for spitting water from her cheeks using her hands...think bellows, you'll get the idea. Unfortunately, I'm stealing so many films all my internets are a bit slow. And for some reason [buck quote] it wouldn't be right if all your hardware worked first time [/quote]!

2 years!?

Happy Birthday Ma!

We had "Soupy Stoo" for dinner...as you can probably guess, it contained tomato products.

A penny for 'em (WARNING: Contains no swearing at all...maybe)

This here be a brain-fart...

  • 3rd (possibly 4th) attempt to launch the Belgians onto "my" platform still being gently fucked over by various "where the fuck did you come from?" suddenly interested parties
  • ditto "why the fuck is that suddenly not working?" aren't all the staging platforms meant to be the same?
  • 4 months late now by my watch.
  • where's my fucking extra RAM for my laptop so I can run more than one application at once....fucking Windows/Microsoft....fucking build team....bah!
  • Been theme customising the Daptop after all this time. All it needed was a bit of a font size change, a decent wallpaper, transparency on Gnome panels, Compiz sorted, annoying tooltips off, colour tweaking for widgets and using different "component" settings from the default Mac-OS-X like thingy-ha Ihey, I'm used to the window buttons, so chill....)
  • Have to carry one of those big wicker-bowl like chairs on Saturday (bargain tho) from up the hill to the house...'twill be our new reading chair for bedtime stories
  • Might have found a swapsy for the Flymo...
  • Dentist & Dupuytrens treatments ahoy (ow! on both counts I fear....)
  • I've been on Facebook far more often than I'd like, but mainly because I've been playing Scrabulous on it....more often than I'd like
  • It's (not really) surprising that Flo is such a tonic for feeling down in the dumps. This morning she wanted to "read a daddy" so picked the biggest, hardbackist books within reach from the shelf by my bed, scrubbled the pages while making nonsense words and then became fascinated by a "stayship" (spaceship) on the front of a very old, very fragile Asimov.
  • Instinct took over and I roused myself to save the book (seriously, this book is probably worth 10p on eBay but it's been with me a long time!)
  • Subsequently she threw some of the heavier books at me..."up daddy now!"
  • This here blog is 2 on Saturday....and Ma reaches the age of 21 (again).
Oh yeh, almost forgot....Jonathon from FlailingMyArms came up with a fucking hilarious video (I think)....especially since Flo and I have been discussing "witches" (ok), "monkey inna tunnel" (wtf?), "mummy dragon" [hi rosie], and "'cary noises". Some of which require her to hide by covering her eyes with a forearm.

The Sky Above Is Full Of Win And The Stars They're Spelling Awesome!!

So. In the back of my mind I was going to post about depression and how annoying it is...but...I'm just not up to it and I'm feeling much happier at the moment anyway....All I'll say is dysthymic depression is a sneaky little fucker.

Spent loads of really quality time with Flo and fired up my new toy....and had pints on Monday afternoon in the sun!

Tons of photos now follow...

Ultimate stir-fry for Saturday tea! There's carrot, pepper, spring onions, peas, sweetcorn, garlic and ginger, prawns, fried parsnip chips and roasted peanuts....."nummy" to quote the flopsy one.

Tucking in

Inna tent

Sleepy sheepdog....in a tent. With a "panket"...and a bone


After dinner and some playing we have a bath then brush our teeth....a decent night's sleep and then it's time for Breakfast...

It's not food unless you get it on your face!

Sunday morning playing "plosh" on the bridge

"I runnin away daddy"

Whut?


Feeding Pigs....unfortunately, there were a few tears when I insisted we left

Pizza for lunch on Sunday...chicken and peppers since you ask...oh wait...

The big slide!

Having got a bit mucky, it was a quick change into some ghetto gear...I finally got the knack with the hair.

No trashy outfit is complete without some tats...This is a tiger tattoo "like Daddy"

And this is a "heart-shape"...it says Mum underneath

Sunday night lent itself to some mild pyromania...

Fire!
Fire!!
Fire!!! You can't really make it out in the photo but there's 3 foot tall flames shooting out of the top!

Monday morning...having a juice.

And then I went for beer....

Yarr!

Yarr! Profile pic changed.....I was bored of the old one.

This one courtesy of Threadless!

Life continues to be fine and dandy, but work is being a pain in the arris....luckily I got sooper-mundo paycheck today.

Being the sensible type (hahahahahah) I paid off most of my credit card...and bought some presents.

Can hardly believe this blog (and thus Flo) will be 2 in a week!

Two!?!?!

And so it goes...

We'd eaten tuna, rice, greens and roasted parsnips & carrots. We'd bathed and watched 'In The Night Garden'. Read "noo book" and gone to bed. I'd been watching a mixture of Steven Fry and Elvis documentaries. It was a Saturday night, 10pm, and I was ready for bed.

I checked on Flo. She'd covered herself with the blanket but was naked and nappyless. And she'd pissed the bed!

I wanted to read my book. I wanted to sprawl over the entire bed (such as it is).

A wipe down, a fresh nappy and the only option "Daddy Bed". I lay her down and curl into a corner...30 seconds later the Copper Chopper hovers seemingly directly above us. She sleeps on, blissful and beautiful. I watch her...then get up to type this.

I have a snoozy one to nap next to. I am the luckiest man alive.
