  • Why do they think they are above the law?

    DOUBLE YELLOWS YOU TWAT!

    I was casually getting rizlas from a certain shop, in ravo, mansfield. I noticed this police car, parked a foot from the curb, right near a junction, AT A BUS STOP, with no police in it.

    YES, HE HAS CHIPS IN HIS HAND!

    After i had paid a visit to the shop, i came out, sat in my car and waited for the police to return. Sure enough they came back,  with bags of chips and sausages – cooked by the chippy man next to the shop i visited.

    So, they were not on official important police business, they were not solving crime, they were not blocking a road cos of some form of accident.

    THEY WERE GETTING THEIR LUNCH!

    So why – if they were not fighitng crime – are they so special, that they get allowed to park in a fucking bus stop, that also has double yellow lines in front of it?

    And its not as if they were 2 seconds either, they were there a good 10 minutes, one bus couldn’t park up cos they were in his way, and cars were having to pull into the middle of the road to drive round them.

    This is getting sent to nottinghamshire police, and i want an official appology or explanation as to why these police officers seem to think that they are above the law.

  • Madeleine? Whos that then?

    Can you remember that little girl that went missing? That girl who’s father claimed to not leave any stone unturned, and to never let the media campaign surrounding his daughters disappearance vanish. Well you have failed mate!

    Fair enough, he kept the spirit of maddy alive for a lot longer than normal children that go missing, but i dont think they are any nearer knowing anything about where she is or sho took her, then they were on day 1 of the hunt.

    The last news article i can find is this one that go’s on about them flying a crack team of detectives and stuff in to help find her. A bit late, dont you think?

    In a way i feel that maddys parents are their own worse enemy. Becasue now, no matter where they go, or who they meet, they will be constantly reminded about the fact their daughter dissapeared, and was never found.

    Usually, id imagine the parents would get over it – maybe many years later. I dont mean completley get over it, but they’d probably be able to get on with their life and jsut remember the happy times etc. But now, no chance.

  • Got My Hands Dirty

    I have been trying frantically trying to get my caddy sorted so that i actually have a car to drive. It sucks being carless, especially when i have a car sat in a garage that im just not using.

    The problem i have tho, is that i cannot find my ignition key. I can find about 4 random VW keys from old VW’s i have owned over the years, but none of them were the key that started the beast. Hopefully scott and myself are working on it for a bit on saturday, then next week some time too.

    In other news, im really tired today. I feel like i have pushed myself as i have created a SEO/links page to highlight all the websites in the MAXXD group.

    Im off now, I think im gonna head home and chill the fudge out!

  • I will miss the internet

    ..When i go travelling! I love being able to search, and find what i want in a matter of seconds.

    We have moved all our shit to a new server, and all the clients stuff over to a new virtual dedicated server – which at the moment is running like a dream. Apart from moving shit across, i haven’t really taken any time to look to see if everything is working OK on the new client server, and of course, it wasn’t.

    I had a message from one of our clients, saying that he couldnt get GD working, and that he thought it may not even be installed. I checked, and it wasnt.

    So after 5mins of google searching, i found this chap – and he spoke about a similar problem when migrating from Fedora to CentOS on his server.

    he explained the correct code to use is;

    yum install php-gd
    service httpd restart

    The first part worked amazingly (once i had logged in as root) but the second part wouldnt work, so i restarted the httpd service manually in WHM – ding dang do! Works like a charm!

    So yeah, when im sat on a white sandy beach, with the warm ocean at my feet and nothing else round me for miles, i certainly will miss the internet!

    ..No, really!
