Phew busy time. Just been marking my third year’s exam papers (which I can’t comment on for obvious reasons), but one of them stopped by after the exam and told me that he’d read all of this garbage! I didn’t think anyone except me was interested in it, but there you go – I guess […]

Just in case you hadn’t noticed, I did a mini site enhancement a week or so ago (which is what gave birth to the whole idea of a news section), to put “Eutony Computing” and “Eutony Music” under the auspices of “Eutony.Net”. These had previously resided at eutony.co.uk and eutony.com respectively, but I don’t really […]

Yup – he’s got the hang of sleeping again. This morning he even made it through to 7am.. quids in!

I take it all back – he slept through the night!! Well, if you count waking up at 6.15 as sleeping through the night (which we do!)

G’rrrrr – five times in the night – FIVE TIMES And three times the night before. Ben the master sleep-depriver strikes again.

Abstract thought for the day – it’s actually really hard to do exactly 70 on the motorway. I think there are three main reasons for this: Physically it seems hard to maintain exactly the right pressure on the throttle. I’m not sure why this should be, when I don’t have a problem nailing 30 without […]

Ben’s getting really good at sleeping now – he has only needed feeding in the middle of the night once in the last couple of weeks! He does tend to wake up and give a couple of squawks in the night, but then he gets himself back off to sleep, and we don’t even have […]

Must give a quick mention to The street bible by Rob Lacey. It’s a complete reworking/summary of the Holy Bible in modern (street) language for those who “have never read the Bible, or have read it too much“. I have personally found it quite inspiring, particularly how he works the four gospels into a single […]

Is it still called writer’s block when it’s not something you have to do? I mean, there was all the to-do over J K Rowling’s alleged writer’s block with Harry Potter V, and I certainly stared blankly at a screen for hours when trying to dream up phrases for my thesis. Actually, that’s not entirely […]
