May 15 English for AliensI've been looking for these for years, not remembering exactly what the aliens were called and always ending up with pages about Dan Akroyd rather than Harry Enfield. Altogether now... TREE! ... SHOP! ... CAR! ... Baby Jeeesus ... February 26 Do I Need Planning Permission?
First of all there was the quick revamp of Blackstar Search, but mainly I have been putting together a new planning website called simply Do I Need Planning Permission? for Orchard Planning Solutions.

So what are you waiting for, give it a go and download the Christmas Puzzle now. September 13 Tired and rambling...It's Saturday, and supposedly the weekend... unfortunately I still have the FBYM newsletter to put together, then there's the many photos from the summer courses that need sorting and publishing on the site plus I really should get some up on the FBYM Facebook page to keep that alive... There's the fact that I really should be in work right now finishing the next release, rather than sat at home knackered and catching up on the miriad of other things that I've got on my list, but work is just going to have to wait until Monday now... And instead of doing stuff to get it out of the way I'm now sat here writing this...! On a lighter note, Neverwhere is an excellent read and has allowed me to drop out of reality with Tanglefoot next to me for ½ hour in the sun before realising that I really have to get on with computer stuff inside again... I guess the point of this ramble is... RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Oh, and I'm also very confused by the Japanese version of One Missed Call that I watched last night! July 30 Microsoft SphereThis feels like it really should be a joke, but allegedly it's real. Microsoft Sphere currently includes a "send to dark side" feature, and obligatory Pong game! Who comes up with this stuff, and how do I get to work there?! Sounds like a place where much jollity occurs coming up with ideas. Full article: Microsoft's Sphere display in action July 04 Big F1 news...Quite suprisingly Donington Park is to host the British GP from 2010 - more here. I never guessed the speculation would actually turn into a reality. And on the same day, Bernie also announced he's gonna stop badgering Melbourne to host a night race for a few years which should be music to Pete's ears! June 13 OCX wrappers for .Net - The joy of AxInteropAnother strange one that we've just come across which seems to have no useful online help about is why certain Property definitions are marked as ReadOnly when you drop an OCX into .Net... Read the full OCX wrappers for .Net - The joy of AxInterop entry on theogray.com/blog. May 07 Miss Bedfordshire

A movie about German racing legend Michael Schumacher is to be produced, with veteran commentator Murray Walker set to be played by none other than Hollywood hard man... Bruce Willis. The film will be made by a Hollywood producer, and will chart Schumacher's rise all the way up to the pinnacle of the sport, a career that saw him amass no fewer than 91 grand prix victories, a staggering 154 rostrum finishes and a record seven world championship crowns. The news – initially revealed in Bunte magazine – has been confirmed in Barcelona this weekend by the 39-year-old's long-time manager Willi Weber, who added that the man from Kerpen is to play himself in the flick. Perhaps even more surprising still, however, is the revelation that Weber has lined up Die Hard star Willis to play the role of Walker, who commentated on every one of Schumacher's successes. “A Hollywood producer is interested,” the Daily Star quotes Weber as having said, “and the film would be called The Michael Schumacher Story, with him as the main actor. Bruce Willis would certainly do Murray justice.” Walker was warmly referred to as ‘The Voice of Formula 1' during the half century he commentated on the sport for both the BBC and ITV, and his character is expected to narrate the film, in addition to appearing in a number of scenes with Schumacher. “If you pop a pair of glasses on Bruce, the similarity to a younger Murray Walker is amazing,” an insider said, adding that the 53-year-old action hero would make ‘a very convincing' Walker. “Bruce is a huge F1 fan and insists the sport hasn't been the same since Murray retired in 2001.” theo |
