Wohoo Weekend!

Yay it’s Friday. It’s also pay-day Friday. But it gets even better considering it’s a 3 day weekend! Joyous rapture all round then!
Mental busy in work. Doesn’t help that our air conditioning is being upgraded this week so we’re all sitting here sweltering in the heat. Not too bad though as I’ve managed to rob [...]

Where in the world!

Interesting things show up in server logs. Over the past few days someone has been searching Google “as Geailge” for my blog. Using the terms “anthony finucane blog” “anthonyfinucane blog” etc. Care to shed some light? Just more interested to see who is using Google as Gaeilge!

Also added some small icons beside the comment link and made some subtle changes to the CSS. I’m just a notorious [...]

Back to reality

Great few days off. Thursday was the Eurovision Missing Link. Came back with a bang. None of the “special guests” turned up, no surprise there then. Managed to get 5 and the show seemed to go down well. I ended up traipsing round the place selling raffle tickets!! Decided to stay late and fell out [...]

iPod

My iPod finally arrived this morning. Met Podge in Trinity and played about a bit. Uploaded all my music onto it fairly fast. Very impressed with it so far. It’s great having all my music with me everywhere I go. The one thing that really surprised me was the size, it’s so small and [...]
