I'm BACK!

And I've had a fine few days in Wilts. Visited the Earl of Pembroke's estate, climbed Windmill Hill and spent several nights within Avebury stone circle.

  1. Ah, Spara.

    While wandering the net, I found this:

    Which I think will no doubt make you happy for various reasons, not the least that there are OTHER fans in existence who share your beliefs re Theta and Koschei.

    (please God don't tell me I have to explain THAT reference...)

  2. Damn it, how do you web links on this thing?!

  3. This made me want to do a parody of Justin Timberlake's Sexy Back... but that was before I realised that the song has barely any lyrics. Suffice it to say:

    He's bringing spara back! (no!)
    Them OGers don't know how to act (no!)
    A fishy man he got no cataracts (yeah)
    Stick around and he'll cop all the flak (true)


    Oh, and YoA, the link works if you double click on it, hit ctrl-c then paste it in the browser... but for a better link... maybe I'll try...

    Yes! It works! Put 'a' in the brackets. My programming course has taught me something at least...

  4. Wait... or maybe it doesn't. God damn it...

    LINK

    Aha! Got it! The site doesn't use intuitive linking like most HTML codes do, so the link has to be specifically embedded in the tag.

    You type a + href= + the link in the tag, and then put the usual closing tag on the other end as usual... (You don't have to put the link in a second time, just '/a')

    I hope Spara isn't offended that we're more interested in blogger's HMTL system than his triumphant homecoming...

  8. Sorry, YOA, made the instructions a bit weird to understand because I couldn't write them literally, or blogger would confuse them with real code. SO here's the code, with the pointy brackets replaced with curly ones (which actually makes a really big difference)

    Blogger has zero tolerance for people who haven't studied HTML in TAFE...

  9. Blogger hates me...

    For the latest adventures of Nigel Verkoff, Sex Machine, go to...

  10. Neat work. I'll probably read through it tomorrow - Friday does not have the most interesting of classes...

  11. It would be unAustralian if it did, you need 24 hours to psyche up for the weekend, everyone knows it.

    Trouble is, I can only put up 19 episodes... damn it. The YOA novel will never be hosted...

  12. I did a lookalike test on David Tennant, I think Spara might be interested in the results...
    Look-a-like!

    Number 1 is probably gonna be popular...

  13. Bollocks. DT only looks similar to them when he's pensive. When he's smiling, or sobbing or doing his Italian impressions, he could be mistaken for just about anyone.

    ESPECIALLY DT. DT and DT are eerily similar.

    In other news, the War Against Chatham continues in A Vest of Evil...
