As usual on a Friday I've had my Chinese take away... I love Fridays :)
I've been making last minute alterations to Sun Coast Properties and it is now totally live.
I'm also in the process of making an Online Casino List which will list all the Casinos giving the most amount of free trial money.
I've also altered the Guestbook. Too many spammers were trying to spam it so from now on I'll add them manually.
I've also changed the Clear Blue Media front end page so it's more div based than before. The page no longer has to wait for everything to load before displaying and will now appear as it loads. A few people grumbled about it so I fixed it.
Back to work now :)

well after a lot of hard work today Suncoast Properties gets its much needed revamp. I did warn the client that the first one wasn't all that great because of the code and the colours he wanted but after its recent success he gave the go ahead for me to make a smarter and cleaner site. I hope you like it as much as I do.
I have a friend who does web design and I'm trying to get him to move to CSS for his sites. His code looks so bloated so tonight I downloaded one of his pages and made a test in css. His html code was 203 lines long and mine was only 55 with the same look. I think he's convinced finally :)
Anyone know how the fishing is at the moment in Torbay? leave me a note in the Guestbook if you can.

Well, I had a nice relaxing night last night and didn't do any work. My problem is I feel guilty taking any time off. I'm so prepared to make this work that I'm really pushing myself to my limits and working 12 to 15 hours a day most days now.
I'm about to launch a revamp of an exsisting site I designed a few months ago to boost search engine rankings and make it 100% accessible to all including the disabled. I should hopefully be launching that one later on today or Thursday.
I've also spotted a new trend in making money on the web so I registered a new domain today and I'm going to try it out. Setting up a web site is so cheap now that it's worth the few pounds buying a domain just to try something out.
BT Broadband seems to be stable again now. Their status line was saying everything was fine since Saturday night but it only today that I saw the improvement.
I have posted this before but if you want sweet revenge on spammers and you can run cgi scripts on your servers then you really should check out W Poison. It is a great way of sticking two fingers up at any spam bot that finds your site.

I saw the last Matrix on Friday and I really enjoyed it. I've seen a lot of people complain about the ending but when you think about it they couldn't really have ended it any other way that made sense.
I've been trying to save up for some waterproof clothing so I can stay dry and warm during the winter when I go out fishing etc. I've seen a really nice Two piece flotation suit that I was going to buy. Then I installed the new versions of Dreamweaver and Photoshop and realised that my computer is now too slow to cope with both these new programmes. Looks like keeping warm and dry will have to wait for the time being.
BT Broadband is playing up big time at the moment. I keep having to refresh web pages and emails to get them to load. The status line says everything is fine but I can asurre them it isn't.
I'm working way to hard at the moment and I really need a break from it. I've been working all day today and I've decided to have the evening off and watch some videos by my open fire. I really want to get a day off soon and go fishing.
