Some of you will remember my street name photography exploits - I've been putting together an electronic font. However, as the signs were made by and, I decided to try making some stamps from craft foam and plywood which would let me print with it.

So I did, and I have results like this from my efforts.

The good bit is that my wide showed one of her colleagues what I was doing, and when I was in the school getting Code Club materials sorted out, I was asked if I could do a workshop with one of the classes where they'd make a printing block and print with it. So I have that to flesh out this week.

That's brilliant! I have a real soft spot for the printing room at work.

ION, I've just bought Borderlands 2 for OS X for £7.80.

Since there's nothing to compare to, size wise,I have to ask which one is it? I'm getting the Sony Xperia Z Ultra.

I had been helping my dad with his PPI claims and he found out that he is getting £10 300 back from one credit card and expects even more from the other which have still to respond.

Holy [LIFTED]!!!
How did they manage to take that off him in PPI payments in the first place?
That would be about £2k a year for five years just for PPI, without even the cosy of the loan, credit card etc.

Well a couple of thousand is interest. It was on a business credit card that he had and he used it a lot.

Go to the gym, workout and come home to eat. Someone's eaten the remaining eggs I had planned for breakie. Just as I'm about to head upstairs, doorbell rings and it's my Amazon delivery with lots of high-protein goodies.

Bought myself a car today - 57-plate Astra. This is a win.

Only slight blemish is the driver's side mirror - it's flat which means you can't actually see anything. Need to find out about putting convex glass in there.
