Fiddling with my web site

Saturday on Saturday (Just)

Saturday, May 5th, 2007

After a couple of days when I’ve been churning out words for my noir fairy tale with an enjoyable ease today things slowed down a bit. Still managed to get the 500 words down to push past the 60,000 point. Not bad for a story I didn’t expect to be more than 15,000. The pieces […]

This morning the first house martins of the year were zipping around low over the park as I walked to work.

Sitemap Now Up

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

Last night I mentioned I almost had the sitemap for my site up and running. I’ve done the polishing to it I wanted to do and it’s now on my site: impworks sitemap. A fact which is of no consequence to anyone but me really 🙂

First Swift of the Year

Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

Saw my first swift of the year in the park this morning on my way to work. It might have been a swallow as it was going at a real rate of knots but I’m pretty sure it was a swift. The house martins will be wizzing around soon too.
