my 21st

Posted Mon, 10/03/2008 - 21:31 by nickstokes

Just wanted to say thanks to eveyone that came to my 21st on the weekend. It was certainly a good laugh from where I was sat. (mostly looking with one eye covered up).

I would also like to thank WALES for beating the spud chuckers and scotland for turning over the English (Matt I can still see your face now, a true picture)

lastly does anyone have any pic's? If so get them up!!

Greetings all, I realised its been a long time since I posted anything so thought I would share this and pass on a message of good luck to my Welsh amigos in the rugby tomorrow.

Enjoy!

Flock and Firefox 3 Beta 3

Posted Sun, 24/02/2008 - 17:19 by toby

For those of you who fancy a look at something new in the way of web related stuff, Mozilla have < a href="http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.0b3&os=win&lang=en-US">Beta 3 of Firefox 3 out.

But something that interested me was Flock, the so-called "Social Web browser". It looks cool and if you have a widescreen display (which my venerable Compaq Presario most definitely does not, however I do have access to twenty-first century technology!) the sidebar is a cool thing and the way the new search box works is also really cool.

See what you think, or just ignore, whatever's your pleasure!

Longevity?

Posted Wed, 13/02/2008 - 18:02 by toby

Since I will be passing over the Col de l'Iseran of life on Sunday I thought a couple of cocoas followed by an early night would be in order.

However, on Saturday I'm going out in Cardiff to celebrate the last day of my twenties!!

Right. The plan is meet at 7.00pm in the Claude. Then we'll go over the road for a curry, then back to the Claude / town / whatever to drink until our aged bodies demand we go to bed.

Christmas Eve

Posted Wed, 12/12/2007 - 09:04 by Martin

It's that time of year again where we all need to make a festive effort to grace the Crows Nest with our collective presence.

Here's the Craic;

1. Who's coming? Some of you have indicated that you may call PUSSY on it this year. Ill be there if I have to bring the Baba, he can have his first pint. I'll even be there if I have to walk home, now that's a fucking commitment!

2. Tee shirts - Comments invited on these. Although last years were uber cheap they didn't have the longevity of the original Stokesy [TM] design. Do you want another polo or an ordinary shirt? I reckon I just get the teeshirt place in Broadmead to knock them up for about £12. I need numbers

The stan will be to hit the pub about 6pm. Let's get the stan in action!

Remember, she don't use Jelly...

Eggwan email migration progress report

Posted Fri, 30/11/2007 - 19:27 by rich

Right then. Having created the account for eggwan.com and created user accounts and suchlike, all you awkward sods decided you'd prefer eggwan.co.uk primary email addresses!

So, I've now added another account (eggwan.co.uk) to Google Apps for your Domain and deeted the old eggwan.com one. I've created the user accounts and alias names, and you should all have been emailed your passwords. You can see a list of the addresses here.

Everyone needs to check that they have a password, that they can log in to the Google mail account, and that all their email addresses are listed in the pic I linked to in the last paragraph.

Next step is to add eggwan.com as a mirror of eggwan.co.uk in Google's config, but I can't do that until Google's servers have deleted the eggwan.com settings -- could be five days. We'll be ready for changeover then, once you've all confimed you have accounts that work and I haven't missed any email addresses off that screen shot.

Talent like this should be appreciated

Moving AGAIN !!!

Posted Mon, 22/10/2007 - 09:54 by rblittle

Hello everybody... Long time no post, my sincere apologies.

Just a quick plee, Rhi, and I will be moving house this week, from the quiet and lushus rural surroundings of New Inn, to the hustle and bustle 24 hour energy, big smoke city life. Full of vibrant cultures and many many new horizons... well to Newport ahem! (where the only certainty is that my car insurance premium will peak to an all time high) ffs!

Anyway, we should have the Keys 4pm Thursday, and moving from then. Anybody kind enough to lend a welcome hand would be greatly appreciated.

Agenda - Moving thursday and friday, cleaning friday and saturday. Free unlimited tea, and "ready salted" crisps and oxo cubes for all (the crisps are still in date I wouldn't fuck you over)

Cheers,

Little.

P.S
Congratulations to Donna And Jeremy.
Ditto South Africa - England such a Shame!
