    Absolutely Furious!

    I have, somehow, managed to remain relatively calm and reserved over the last few weeks, but tonight's events have left me spitting teeth with rage. Even with a full strength side, you would expect it to be a tough match at Leeds, but to turn up at one of the strongest sides in the league with...

    Bypassing internet filters at work

    Is there a way? Basically, what I'm after is a site that has an Inter Explorer (or mozilla or whatever) within it, so you are accessing the web through their site, so to speak. Is there such a thing, and is there one that is hard to find so the MOD won't have already filter that site itself?

    Dancing on ice (not).

    Was out really early this morning and had to collect an item from a school in Chelmsford. I walked through the play area and round into the office past some classes of kids about 13/14. Picked said item up and was walking across the playground when I suddenly "Aquaplanned for about 20 yards on...

    UK set for Siberian January...

    As I mentioned last week, we could be on the verge of a major spell of winter weather. Mostly dry and cold for the next week or so, but after that we could be in for some serious snow, especially Mon/Tues next week. Then again, the media have gone into ramp mode, so that will probably mean...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Chris Powell

    Fighting Talk on Radio 5 Live has a segment called Defending the Indefensible where pundits or comedians (note Mark Lawrensen the two are separate) are given an outrageous statement that they have to somehow justify for 30 seconds of airtime.
