Not much to report. I've added a Computer Repair link and a About Me link on the pages now.

I actually got a computer repair job today because of the training link so I thought it would be a good idea to add a page on it. I've been doing computer repairs for a few years but it's always been word of mouth so I might as well add a page and see what happens.

I finally re-installed my own computer today. It's lasted a long time without one but it was getting to the point that it was taking a couple of minutes to open a programme. I hate re-installing windows on my machine because it normally takes 5 to 8 hours installing all my programmes back on as well as windows.

There is a new version of the browser opera which is my default browser and kicks ass over IE. wwwThere is a skin called Occhi Blue which you can get from The Opera Skins Site. I strongly recommend Downloading opera, the options are amazing and it is a super fast browser!

I made a new Coming soon temp page the other day which I like.

Well, the cold weather has finally arrived. It is bitter cold outside. My new flat has a open fire which I've missed so much. I lit it on Monday and it's been buring away every evening since.

I haven't had a cold or flu for a very long time but I have a full blown something at the moment and I think it's making up for the fact I haven't had one for so long. Normally I can work through colds without a problem but this one is really draining me. Every bone in my body is aching like mad and I wish I wasn't working in the video shop today. 11am to 9pm is a long day when all your ready for is bed.

If you tend to get stressed with your computer you're not alone. According to a piece in

The Register 4 in 5 of us do and list the most common stresses.

I'll be updating my photos in the next couple of days. I haven't been out to take any but I have 5,000 I can look through and replace some of them.

Sorry for the update delay, you would not believe how busy I am at the moment.

I completed another 2 web sites this week, Newton Abbot Audi Stages and a budget web site for Moorhaven holiday apartments.

I haven't been able to go fishing until today when I took my Nephew Tom down to Torquay pier for some float fishing and bottom fishing. No-one was catching a thing today and it was pretty windy. We stayed down there a couple of hours and left.

Isn't it weird how you can use some computer programmes for years and still not touch the surface of it's power. I was messing around with the Clear Blue Media logo yesterday and I finally figured out why my logos look "bitty". It suddenly struck me to create the logo as a super huge file (2000x2000 pixel) and increase the dpi to around 300. I then scale down to the 750 pixel I wanted once I had finished with it. The result was a crystal clear orange half moon effect on the Clear Blue Media web site.

Clear Blue Media business is crazy at the moment. I have 5 to do with another 10 in the pipeline. My problem is that I like to create a site from scratch and not use the same template over and over again. The result is a unique web site but one which takes more time. I honestly can't remember the last time I was this busy and on top of the move it's been a stressful few weeks.

I tried to take the weekend off but it was just impossible. I mananged 3 1/2 hours off this afternoon and then I was back at work.

I least I got some fishing in ;)
