Outside world fail: Homophobia and racism on rise in Northern Ireland, survey shows - no, not surprising per se. If you've seen NI news lately, not surprising at all. In the past fortnight, we've had Romanian families forced to leave NI for Romania after racist assaults, the church which gave these families temporary shelter being stoned, and a ( Read more... )

Really what I should be doing is replying to feedback, and I am, but very slowly. The response to Taking the slower path (we'll get there in the end) overwhelmed me in the best possible way and I'm getting through my delayed feedback replies in order. While also worrying at the possibility of a sequel that hadn't occurred to me until people asked, ( Read more... )

- Dylan Moran last night, on the big decision about whether or not to enter a relationship. I love him. He was fab. And odd, and rambling, leaving and returning to his train of thought as and when he remembered it. He really does do the hair pushing thing all the time. And drink red wine on stage ( Read more... )

Hey, smilebackwards, I got your card! International post always cheers me up, thank you :) With regards to your questions: come visit!; and Psych, maybe? I need a new fandom icon ;)

So, I'm having a good old-fashioned 'catch up with NaNo'/'watch the US election results come in' party. By which I mean it's me, David Dimbleby (on BBC), pilfered Diet Coke and Goldfish Crackers. (I'm CJ-ing all over the place ( Read more... )

Why is CSS so difficult? Or, alternately, why can't everyone just use the one browser? I'm making a site for my Dad (not just for him, for his football team), and while it works in IE7 at 1280x800, the layout goes wonky in Firefox and Safari, or in 800x600.
