• wet bunnyOkay, I’m trying not to be glass half-emptyish, but it will keep filling up and pouring over the sides. No, not luck and good fortune, but the pond. It seem like it never wants to stop raining this November.

    Perhaps, if we believe enough in Christmas Fairies, December will brighten up a bit?


  • Is it my hearing that is going funny or has the sound on X Factor got even worse?

    As Danni says, “is it singing competition or what?”

    Each week it gets harder to hear the voices as they are drowned in reverb, positioned way back in the mix and drenched in backing vocals that completely overpower the singer.

    It is beginning to sound a bit karaoke. There are a couple of great voices in there, but we are not being allowed to hear them. It must sound fabulous in the studio, but this is a tv show, can we have a sound mix for the tv audience, please?


  • After I was hacked and rebuilt my website, I decided not to host my blog on my site anymore, as that seemed to be where they gained access to my database. I decided to host my blog with wordpress.com.

    This brings you closer to the wordpress community. Almost as soon as I was online again, I saw a link to National Blogging Month. It wasn’t really a blogging month it was a piece encouraging bloggers to write something everyday for a month. I took up the challenge. I’ve been doing pretty well. But now I think it is getting in the way of proper work. I’m going to try a new challenge.

    This is my third entry today. I’m going to see if I can not blog everyday!
