Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
The official trailer for the new Harry Potter movie is now out. It looks really god, they haven’t given too much of the plot away in the trailer (well most of us know what happens but there are others who haven’t read the book) and they’ve added a few scenes into the movie that weren’t in the book. Anyways I’ve got a 480p version of the trailer here. Enjoy!

21st trip around the sun
Jun 2nd
…and so another year of my life goes by on this little rock we call Earth. It’s been a tough year but I did achieve a lot of things.
- First, and probably most importantly, I made it into the University of Bristol to study Computer Science. Not that I had any doubts but still it’s kind of a relief to finally be here.
- I dumped Windows Vista!!! Not as important or hard to do as the previous one (especially given what a great job Microsoft did with it!) but Compaq (or HP rather) sure as hell didn’t make it easy to switch.
- I have gone Open Source. After years of putting it off I finally decided, with the help of Vista, to switch over to Ubuntu. Not the best Linux distro out there but hey, it’s a start.
- I grew a box beard. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while and finally did it last year. It didn’t last very long though. I had to get rid of it before I flew back for Christmas.
- I went to see Manchester United vs Everton in the English Premier League at Old Trafford with Shaun and GaPs.
- I took 6 whole months (Nov 2009 – April 2010) off all forms of sport to let my knee heal properly, something which I should have done 2 years ago although I still don’t know what the hell was wrong with it in the first place!
- I’m 21 years old! Not really an achievement but now I don’t have to worry about age limits for clubs and pubs any more and THAT is something
Not a very impressive list but all relatively important to me. So kudos to everyone who helped me through this year, both family and friends. I couldn’t have done it without you. Here’s to another 21 years of excitement…but hopefully with a lot less drama. I think I have had enough of that to last me a lifetime!!! Oh and of course, to mark another birthday, a new design for the site. Hope you like it!
