Center Parcs – initial thoughts

   Posted by: lyle    in Thoughts, Travel

Well, it has to be said that the break at Center Parcs went pretty well. I’ve a number of thoughts and photos about the place, and I need to get them more in order in my own mind before going on to write about them in depth, but all told it was a good time.

It’s also renewed my interest in archery – I won’t mention the score I got, because I’ll only get told I’m being a big-headed git – and Tai Chi, so we’ll see how things go on that score too.

In the meantime we’re off to see Faithless at Alexandra Palace tonight – an 8pm to 2am gig, which should be a laugh. The camera will be going with me, but as I’ve not been to Ally Pally for a gig before I’ve no idea whether any photos will be successful or not.

So – much more writing type stuff will be done tomorrow, along with a quick smattering of the 160ish photos from the week at Center Parcs…

Packages

Oooh, coming back from Center Parcs we had a package waiting from Amazon.

In it was Season 5 of the West Wing on DVD, and the new book by John Connolly, “The Black Angel“. So, it looks like I’ll be a happy bunny for a while…

CSS Reboot

   Posted by: lyle    in D4D™, Geeky

Like Pix, I’ve been thinking of getting involved in the CSS Reboot , which basically involves redesigning the entire site to a CSS implementation.

Then I thought “But I’ve got sod all time anyway, I redid a lot of this to CSS back at the end of ’04, and I haven’t completed changing the old pages here yet, let alone going through and re-doing it all again.”

So I’m afraid that come May 1st there won’t be a pretty new redesign here on d4d. I just ran out of time/ inclination/ inspiration.

Sorry about that.
