A Letter to God

Dear God, I know I’m not your most loyal subject, that I’m often caught mocking your existance or taking your name in vain; I know that it was wrong of me to eat that second mini cake yesterday and that mocking people like I do probably has serious consequences, but I need a favour. It’s… read full entry »

Folders, Accessibility and New Content

As promised, Jemjabella.co.uk is being updated.. and, well, here it is. It’s not 100% finished and you’ll probably find broken images here, there and everywhere, but consider it a work in progress. New accessibility stuff has been added (or added back) — including tabindex attributes in the top navigation that makes the tab-through order more… read full entry »

No Interview and my First Day at Work

I opened my post this morning to find a letter from a local company telling me that they appreciate my application but they’re not going to invite me for interview.

Photo Friday: Technology

This photo has been used on a layout for almost every single one of my mini-sites, including tutorialtastic and currently: Karl’s Asylum. I have no idea why, but it is probably one of my favourite photographs. Not because of… read full entry »


Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Review

I first came across Harvest Moon: AWL at my almost-Sister-in-Law’s — she was tending to one sick cow and complaining that her other had stopped producing milk. A few moments later and she was chopping grass and picking weird fungus from the ground while I watched, rather unexcited from what I’d seen so far. How… read full entry »


I Got A Job

You’re now looking at a no-longer-unemployed bum. Yes, still a bum, but now employed. I start Monday — it’s an ICT Technician position at a local school, supporting the computer equipment in the Science, Music and DT departments. It’s part-time flexible hours, but that’s cool because I can either get another part-time job (theoretically) or… read full entry »

The ‘net geek that I am, I always head straight for the Internet articles and every single week by the time I’ve finished reading them I end up seething. Why? Because one particular employee of the magazine is constantly recommending deprecated, proprietary or… read full entry »
