Been playing with Google Maps API and using Excel VBA to build HTML pages
Quite fun actually. You can download the file I put together (MapBuilderUL) if you want to play with it.
Bangers house show in Southampton
Bangers, missed Young Attenborough due to Hamish concerns, Great Cynics, Cement Matters and Breakups at No. 3 in Southampton. 20th October 2012.
Emergency Ice Cream
The website has this down as wedding gifts for guests and the like, but I think the entire idea of emergency ice cream is outstanding in any situation. Basically you store all the ingredients in a plastic bag in a mason jar, mix them when you want ice cream, and shake with ice between the jar and bag to freeze it. Awesome.

Help map your network’s coverage
Ever switched mobile phone operators and then realised you get Sweet Fanny Adams in the way of reception at home, despite the network insisting that they have good coverage there? A lot of what they map is based on theoretical coverage from various masts, rather than the actual coverage you can expect. Root Metrics do crowdsourced maps in the USA, and they're starting in the UK. Download the app, and you can map around your area. Shame your network into sorting out duff coverage or similar. Obvious thing that the more people use it, the better the maps become.
Here's what it currently looks like for T-Mobile UK around Weybridge.
Download the app/browse the site here.
