Sounds like he was ready this time.

@Jonn How do you export surrendering only way I can think of is a roundabout way of saying you win a lot.

Here’s to you and the rest of the James regulars, hope the next year is good for you all.

(Pedantic correction: I went and googled him to find more of his lovely work, turns out he’s called Chesnutt, not Chestnutt)

Just big boring grids. This was my major gripe with the Sim City games — they just let you make big boring American grid-cities :(

Also: Did you make the ice cubes yourself?

Perhaps because I’m a child of the Geocities age, I just like photos that look like they could tile to make a wallpaper.

I bet ‘ah, the truffle fries!’ is one of those things you can say underwater.

Kinda depressing somehow…

Also those are some purty photos, I still laugh when I see the walrus one, it looks so happy to see you! Did you bring him his bukkit?

Oh yeah, and there’s to much sunlight reflecting on the fifth picture down, or I’m just blind, what’s it supposed to be of? =P

By cycling through these pictures very quickly I can imagine what you’d experience, Tom, if you drowned on the final day of the year (not that you will!)

My year was 2/3 STRESS 3/12 stress 1/12 relaxing.

That’s my year in a nut shell, still, I can’t believe that’s almost a new decade. When someone said that I said something along the lines of ‘What? Since when, no… f*ck off’. I’d forgotten that 2010 would be the start of the next decade, I’d only just got settled with the 00’s.

Also, 2010 is still pegged down as THE FUTURE, it certainly doesn’t feel like the future yet. This Christmas better at least see something major come out of CERN. And I’m definitely going to make some retro-ice blocks. Perhaps I could stick jelly cubes together to make characters from the years when you could see all the individual colours in a pixel from about 1m away from the screen.

All I can remember about the restaurant’s name is that it rhymes with asbestos.

It’s not really Dylan, Jonn, something about my obliviousness to disarranged hair just made me think of him.

Heh, did anyone else spend long enough in the comments box for the snow to reach down here? It takes a while.

Then I saw the second one and the caption and went “hang a tic, that’s the Black Books guy!”

]France’s pimary exports are textiles and macro photography.

Also, berets.

]Halloween.

That’s a really good impression of a pale British man.
