Johnny H of uber group The Blofelds today celebrates his birthday. Happy Birthday Johhny :O)

Johnny H is now a major hand coder and glowing figure in the online digital photography world. In his spare time he maintains the internet backbone or “trunk” through a port at the base of his spine, utilising spare brain capacity to route traffic for major UK isps.

First proper kind of shave tonight to reveal the luscious finery of my emerging handle bar.

Check it out in my tacheback HQ, hopefully some of you may care to encourage my efforts by supporting me, so sign up please and maybe donate at some stage.

Swings and round-a-bouts this mutosh thing, on the one hand, the ladies are loving it (I can tell from the way they gaze at me on the bus, in the city etc), but on the other, my children refuse to allow me to kiss them goodnight anymore.

BTW, mutosh is how Tobias pronounces mustache, I like mutosh betterer TBH.

Adios

There is a lot of plus points to owning your own home, not having a landlord is one big one, poor Will:

For the month of September I shall be taking part in a fine gentlemens pursuit, the growth and upkeep of my first mustache, of the handle bar variety no less.

As well as increasing my devilishly handsome visage, making all those of the gentler sex weak at the knees no doubt, my manly efforts are also in aid of that fine institution “Tacheback“, with the aim of raising much needed funds for Everyman, funding research to cross out male cancer.

Click on the piccy above, or HERE to go to my HQ, where I will be uploading pics of progress, and where you may, if you so wish, make a small donation towards the cause.

Having merely dallied with the hirsuit pursuit in the past, one must admit to a certain amount of trepidation as to how my upper lip lounger may be greeted by the general public, family, friends and colleagues, we shall see, although I do trust my choice of style may only increase their impression of my hot blooded machismo.

Will keep you up to date with progress, may pop a wee piccy on the flickr daily so we may all admire the change.

Chin Chin! (Or lip lip, well upper lip, you know…)

Iggy pulled it out the bag again, proving there is no need to slow down even @ 60 years of age, he leapt all over the stage, off the stage, humping the amps etc, the man is possessed when on stage, hopefully he gets a bit of deep heat afterwards.

Stooges were amazing also, here are a few pics from “Rock the House” Harewood House, Leeds, 31/08/2007. B & W seemed to suit them, and made up for the fact that a lot did not turn out so well due to the distance to the stage, and the house lights were turned down through most of the set as they were blinding the Igg.

A very happy 30th wedding anniversary to Dadio and Ina. Derren and Kevin were up rather early this morning making the front garden look a bit more festive than usual. I think we’d all agree there is a great future in landscaping for them if they ever tire of their current jobs.

Have a great day folks, lot’s of love from Us x o x

p.s – Translation for us hinglish “30 years and still a couple” you get less for murder, and time off for good behaviour!

Apple announce a special event on Wed 5th September.
iPod supply being run down all over the place.
Seems like the whole iPod range will be updated on Wednesday 5th September, will the much rumoured video iPod make an appearance at last? After all the announcements, could the one “one more thing” be the addition of The Beatles back catalogue to Apple iTunes? Some are saying NO, but I find it rather coincidental that Paul McCartney has just been announced as a special guest on BBC Radio 1 with a rather big announcement on …. Wednesday 5th September (announced by Edith Bowman on Friday afternoons show)

All will be revealed next Wednesday, locking the credit card away now, and throwing away the key.
