Again, yet more exams have crept up on me; ready to surprise me in new and possibly unpleasant ways.
Maths C2, C3, C4, M1, S1
Physics modules 2 and 3
Chemistry Module 2
Good luck to everyone else taking exams this season.

Well today was the day, the first of many many A level mark days; and I think it’s safe to say that I came out of it fairly well.
AQA Physics Unit 1: A 90
Chemistry: A 77
Maths MEI C1:A 80
Maths MEI C2:B 77
I’m fairly sure that I’m going to resit Maths C2, because I was really not on form when I did […]
Reports are in, confirming something that I have known for a long time.
Hats are awesome.
Also, the Asia concert was beyond awesome; and if they’re playing near you; then you should certainly go and see them- Steve Howe is the most masterful guitarist that I have ever seen.
It’s been several months now since I last said anything noteworthy (bar expressing my disgust at the science funding crisis) and it’s probably time that I wrote something. Thanks to AppleCare my ageing iBook miraculously changed into a macbook before Christmas by virtue of some faulty bluetooth chip, my mac mini has since transformed into […]
The STFC have recently massively slashed the budget for Physics in the UK by £80million. It means amongst many other things that the UK will drop out of exceedingly important international research, and many British research programmes will come under threat. It will also make it exceedingly difficult to take up further studies of Physics […]
Happy (belated) new years everybody, it’s been a fairly hectic 2007 for me; and things are starting to look up for 2008. However, I am currently snowed in with AS level stuff; so am going to be unable to blog as often as I would like to- and I’ve got some exams around the 10th […]
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all.

Recently, my iBook’s bluetooth module and Sleep LED assembly decided that actually functioning was not worth the endeavour- so I took it along to the Apple store in Southampton. Unfortunately, the problems with my iBook were irreparable and as it was under Apple care; they gave me a new MacBook.
Moral of the story: get AppleCare […]
The k800i is, all-in-all a very nice phone. One of it’s main fairly innovate features is that it can run firmware updates from the menu and download them over the air. This would be fairly useful as a first diagnostic against a software problem with the phone as the occasional 20mb download wouldn’t really hurt […]
Ugh.
On updating iTunes and Quicktime my mac froze and upon rebooting I discovered that something went wrong.
Very wrong in fact, with the “Welcome to Leopard” wizard appearing on logon and refusing to let me log in.
One full time machine restore later and my mac is working again, unfortunately it’s now refusing to back […]
It seems that Joss Whedon has been granted a new series to write with Tim Minear. From what’s been said it looks like it should be brilliant- but it’s being made by Americas FOX network. Hopefully it should only be a matter of time before a British channel expresses interest (although I’m still waiting for […]
