Blogging client for PalmOS. Just the job for moblogging when I’m in Paris in a fortnight, methinks.

SpamAssassin 3.0.0 Released!

The thoroughly splendid spam-nuking tool increases its splendidness massively. And the new logo is a beauty too.

Silly, funny, but re-diculously overpriced t-shirts with the spam subjectline of your choice.

Maison du Begbie

Our house. Not, as those tricky pranksters Madness would have you believe, in the _middle_ of our street. More towards the corner.

Rather sadly, this is the only photo I took on Joy's and my wedding day, in the brief minutes between the reception and heading off to our hotel for the night.

Like A Champagne UKNova

I posted UKNova to the links list a month or two ago, but I want to promote it more now. It’s a fabulous resource for Brit ex-pats, or just fans of British TV.

Currently being circulated on the site are torrents of the forgotten-but-fantastic sitcom How Do You Want Me?, how-the-mighty-have-fallen piss-poor Angus-Deayton-hosted Bognor Or Bust, excellent Stephen-Fry-hosted-smug-fest QI and the always-entertaining-annoyance-baiting of Room 101(Room 101 (TV series) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

Fire up your torrents, and enjoy!
