Late August update

It's been 11 days since my last entry so what's been happening? In no particular order: I am very proud (and about time) to hear that Matt has been promoted to the post of supervisor at BHS with further training to manager level and, ever more important maybe has been the increase to full time hours. Work has been going well ... I hate to have to keep mentioning this but ... This is voluntary unpaid work. Not been able to go in as often as I would have liked but often enough to have achieved all that I have been asked to do with efficiency which is the point I suppose. I have one large project due right now but I intend to allocate a couple of days to that as soon as I can. I also need to discuss their website with them to hopefully get something up and running. Spent a great few hours with friends Sue & Fred who have two kids, Adam & Charlotte. All of them are amazing people and we hope to spend a lot more time with them in the future. Discovered our friend Jan shall b...

Thursday 14th August

I have slept a lot of today, I guess I must have needed it. Indeed, didn't really do much at all except go into town and meet Matt & Anne. My achievements for today, as I like to have some, would be about 3 new home movies and a catalogue of all the stuff I have captured right now. Quite looking forward to watching them on a full size TV. I edited a Disneyland Paris video from 1999 as well. This is odd as it is the only ever Disney video I have edited which didn't involve Christmas. This one was Halloween themed so made a change to source some new music for it. The 2000 holiday to Salou looks like it could be fun with the music choice. Tomorrow I am going to catch up on some things at home and possibly go into work for a while. Tomorrow the weather is forecast to be mainly sunny so I guess that means it'll be pissing down again. My apologies to anyone who has had trouble finding the blog. I have been the victim of a little stalking. I only really write this for me but a...

Slander?

A person on an online forum asked recently if it is slander to post something such as my previous blog entry complete with picture of the other person? To be honest, I am not sure what the law has to say on the matter but common sense to me would say that anything online is quite public unless it specifically says otherwise. The copied text is accurate and unedited so cannot be seen as slander because it speaks for itself. The reader makes his or her own judgement on the content. The picture may well be subject to copyright, that is questionable and quite possibly difficult to prove. As the person in question made a point on the same forum of using information gleaned from this blog to use as a weapon against me I'd say it was certainly fair game. This is not something I'd do generally as can be seen from elsewhere on my blog. I figure that if a man wants to source his information from somewhere other than the forum he's posting to about an individual then he's going to...

Judge for yourself ....

Naming and shaming is the point of this post. This is the Cambridge University music graduate who believes, in my opinion of what he is saying, that we bring homophobia upon ourselves: He uses the user name 'yesihavelegs' on www.kagoul.com . He is 31 years old and describes himself as 'bisexual'. He describes himself as: "Volatile and usually pissed off Cambridge University music graduate with bad taste but worse than that, I'm posh, lacking in tact and generally awkward. " and goes on to say: "Reading this you may feel you won't/don't like me but I can't help it if you've got no stamina, or you're an idiot. I like everyone, apart from those who make me want to cover them with vomit. " This is the thread in question so you may judge for yourself whether this guy is making an attack on me or sticking to the subject matter: dizzyqueen Subject: 'Batty Boy' on Youtube Posted: 00:36, Saturday August 09 2008 A quick search...
