Finally managed to upgrade the blog engine!  The previous post section seems to have disappeared though, oh well.

Lets see how this does.

However, I have now managed to added categorized archives!  much better!

Now things have are a bit quieter around the house I have been able to work on a few other bits that needed doing.

My Girlfriend has 2 websites, one of which we moved hosting on the other month and had started redesigning it, as it was a clicpic template before.

This is all well and good but it takes time.  Nat had done some of it, learning web development as she went and I have done some more of the tricky bits and research into clever bits we needed to add.

I have also added some clever code created by Andrew Valums for scrolling images on a static page.  So many thanks to Andrew as it is the best image scroller I have come across.

Nats second website, her framing site, also expired last week, so I have started this one too!  This have given me a good opportunity to work on my css skills some more and implement some new things I haven’t tried before.

I manage to get a version of lightbox installed too, called slimbox2!  My previous attempt didn’t work so I’m pleased I’ve managed to do it this time.  It took a little bit of tweeking to get the titles working correctly with the vertical scroll script.

Keep an eye out for the annoncement of both the websites.

I’ve been looking back at some of my blogs entries in 2006 & 2007.  It seems I had a lot to write about back then with an entry going in nearly every day.

Things were different then and I was writing alot as I knew I had a friend or 2 reading regularly.

I dont seem to be able to think of things to write about these days so easily.  Maybe its because I have a lot more going on and no real need to write here.  My apologies to anyone who still looks here in the hope to reading something of interest, I do try…

There should be some interesting bits coming up very soon and I’ll try and post a bit more if I can.   I have just been too busy with things and not having the ideas to talk about here.

What a very busy week this is….

Working every day of course, then;
Monday after work rushed to Hatch Warren, to Mothercare, then back to Farnborough

Tuesday late afternoon, collecting Nats new car, then home to do studio photos

Wednesday evening having a wardrobe delivered

Thursday evening hospital visit

Friday early morning dentist appointment, the bookcase being delivered in the afternoon.

Somewhere in there there should be another item delivered.

Saturday, relax, a free day!!
