Saw the book cover....oh wow

its been 2 years in the making, and I've cursed it more than I've praised it, but the end is near, I just saw the 1st draft cover of my book, with my fucking name on the front...my fucking book,with my fucking name.,..its surreal.. I am chuffed to bits. even though I want a few changes it still is utterly unreal to see.. I can't believe I had the patience to write a book...shit I hope people like it,

Though it wasn't easiest thing ever, there was some confusion over where to find the database (I had to buy space on my server) but the site is now complete with a basic forum, all default settings but it will to for testing things out give it a go HERE

Website Japes

Its been many many years since I even attempted to set up a website, and I can't honestly claim I have learned anything since then, but I've been slowly putting together the new Scratchpad website, its looking pretty good.

Its rather a slow process though and prone to confusion, I can't say I'm a big fan of  HTML or CSS, but the templates supplied in DreamWeaver which just little bit of aleration are doing the job.

Click on the link above to see the progress so far, its still mostly holding pages but its navigating reasonably well, though I am sure I should break it into smaller pages for faster loading or some such web developer taboo.

Radio 2 and coding.

Dunno why, but I always find having Radio on while I work to be quite focusing, I've even been known to head bop a bit if a catchy song comes on as I am typing.

I've now grown up and switched to BBC Radio 2...I dunno why but BBC Radio One just bores me to tears now, in the same way Radio 2 used to 10 years ago.. Things change eh!


Had a few days of no motivation to work, which is ok as it was New year and I hadn't really planned to do too much work, but hard at it today, clearing off the next article and making some great progress on the Colecovision game (yes still working on it)

Article is all written up, just testing the code on a couple of different Pi's to make sure the recent Jesse-stretch update does not cause too many issues.

Back is 99% back to normal, so off to the Gym tomorrow to resume the torture, and I'll be cycling to the cinema tonight to finally get my Star Wars fix, sadly its been spoiled to death but I'll still enjoy the movie.

Kinda looking forward to going back to work on Monday, but really want to get the decks cleared 1st so back to my head bopping, as I'm every woman is now playing on the Ken Bruce show.
