It’s a two-episode finale, and we’ll be recording it. Just a note to others to Sky Plus it, since the Series Link seems to have failed. For those who have yet to take the time to appreciate quite how good Torchwood is, why not make this your first encounter with Jack Harkness? In other Torchwood [...]

It’s been a long time since I published some of my favourite Google search results landing people onto my blog, so after reading Google’s own end-of-year Zeitgeist, I thought this would be a great opportunity to pick and choose some of the funniest search keywords from 2006 (since top keywords are a bit too boring [...]

Cabel‘s been playing Saints Row, and has produced what is possibly the most entertaining bug review in history – a Musical review. “For starters, it was literally, down to almost every detail, an exact clone of Grand Theft Auto. (I couldn’t believe Rockstar didn’t K.C. Munchkin all over their faces.) Saints Row does, to its [...]

On the way back from Kent a few days ago, I spotted Tom Toms on a couple of cars’ dashboards as we drove by them. Thought it would be funny to play yellow punchbuggy to pass time, but we would’ve been black and blue by the time we get home! Just how many people got [...]

Just wanted to drop you a short note to wish you all a fabulous Christmas, filled with lots of relaxation time, with family and friends, and lots of good food, drinks and fun presents! We’ve just opened most of our presents, and I think everyone’s very pleased with what they’ve got. I received the Doctor [...]

It was announced over a week ago that the Doctor Who spin-off show, Torchwood, will come back for a second season. It took me a week to post it, but I was thrilled to hear about it. Especially that it’ll be back on BBC Two instead of BBC Three – it’s moving up the rungs! [...]

Only four sleeps left until Christmas. Motivation to do anything is rather low. Distractions are welcome. And then I get tagged by Matt! Well, how could I resist? Five things you (probably) didn’t know about me: I once went straight from an all-night rave to singing in an early Sunday morning classical concert at the [...]

*Throws self to the ground in desperation* It seems Heather’s forecast on Ugg boots being popular again this winter wasn’t a fluke, and wasn’t a local thing either. Bill, also from Hitwise, confirms that the trend has been set in the US as well. It’s a worldwide plague! Oh well… it’ll give the Fug girls [...]

If like me, you’ve tried using Quicksilver as an app launcher, you might benefit from using the Overflow Launcher by Stunt Software. It’s available for free through Macappaday today instead of the usual $14.95. I’m sure Quicksilver does a zillion things more, but I know I’m not alone in not having done more than use [...]

Our Nintendo Wii arrived safe and sound from Amazon.co.uk this afternoon. No need to sleep in the gutter or outside PC World to get my hands on one, just a comfortable (if slightly anxious) wait in the office until Parcelforce dropped it off around lunchtime. My impressions so far… Creating the Mii was fun, but [...]
