The other week I went to the fishing tackle shop down by the harbour side (Quay stores) and said I'd make them a kick ass web site worth £1,000 for the cost of just £50 to cover the domain name and hosting. He said he would think about it next year (that's 2005!)... are my designs really that bad?

I'm weird to see some people are still keen not to make some extra money from the net. I've now offered my services to another fishing tackle store in Kent instead so they lost out big time.

I was hoping to go fishing tomorrow evening but I have meeting after meeting after meeting so it looks like I have no chance :(

Oh yeah, the snow last night lasted all of 20 minutes and it didn’t settle anywhere. I least I caught a fleeting glimpse of the white stuff :)

I got quite lucky yesterday because I was searching out some domains names and just by chance I happened to check the clearbluemedia ones and the co.uk had come available so I instantly snapped it up. It's a good thing because people often forget a .net and put in a .co.uk instead. They also, and more commonly, put in .com but in this case it forwards them onto a casino so they know they are in the wrong place.

There are some very low people in the World and this has to be very very near the bottom where the dregs of human society are - Thieves rob woman having seizure in Newton Abbot. The top part of the piece says: "Police in Devon are hunting criminals who stole money and a mobile phone from a woman who was having an epileptic seizure."

Now that is low!
