Are you for real?

23 Jun 2008 In: Life, Twitters

That is what was said to me straight after asking Claire to marry me last thursday of course she followed that with a “hell no!” jokes :D she said yes!

So its done, we are engaged and i can safely say we are both completely over the moon and couldnt be happier, its still a bit surreal telling people as its not really sunk in yet as i still kinda feel like im building up to asking her.

A quick search on Google to find out the definition of engagement brings back a few comical results:

battle: a hostile meeting of opposing military forces in the course of a war; “Grant won a decisive victory in the battle of Chickamauga”; “he …
date: a meeting arranged in advance; “she asked how to avoid kissing at the end of a date”
betrothal: a mutual promise to marry
employment: the act of giving someone a job
employment for performers or performing groups that lasts for a limited period of time; “the play had bookings throughout the summer”
contact by fitting together; “the engagement of the clutch”; “the meshing of gears”
the act of sharing in the activities of a group; “the teacher tried to increase his students’ engagement in class activities”

We have yet to set a date for the big day, but as with most things Claire and I do it will be done within our own time and not rushed, but that said we have a pencilled date of 25/10/2013 a date Claire randomly spurted out the day before i proposed… so who knows!

Throwing in the towel

18 Mar 2008 In: Life

UPDATE as usual it didn’t last very long i’ve already started playing again! My god I’d be buggered if I was a crack head… would never quit!

Well i think i might have hit a turning point, i think i have quit competitive gaming as for the first time in about 8 years i have not attempted to play any form of gaming online in a “team” or “mix” and to be honest i’ve enjoyed the time it has free’d up for me.

For anyone who has never really played at a high level you would most likely not know of the amount of time and effort it can take from a players life, gamers put in as much as 10-12hrs a day of solid practice for up coming events and who wouldn’t when thousands of pounds are on the line.

Now that i have more time i’m starting to find my passion for web development increase and im looking more and more at possible new projects, something that i’ve not wanted to even think about for a good couple of years.

I’m still not sure what im going to do, but it will more than likely keep me involved with eSports, just on the other end of things - i dont think we will see a relaunch of EuroCSS.NET but you never know, i may just go for the bigger things out there ;)

Or maybe an Xippy Clone?!

Smoothbeats.com jigga yeah!

CCL ARE SHIT

6 Feb 2008 In: Life, Technology

Do not, i repeat do not EVER buy anything from CCL Computers as you would get better service from burning you’re own testical’s with a bunsun burner!

First of all It was not possible for me to change my own billing address online i had to ring them, who then told me i had to email them the changes and wait up to 40-90mins for the changes to take place.

So i did so…

Then i notice they got my address wrong … sighs … oh but it gets better, there cart has now died and refuses to let me continue shopping with a lovely 500 ASP error.

So I thought i would ring them up and take the order over the phone instead, but no - not only could they not process my card they also couldnt understand my rant for being charged another £5 for not ordering online…

Well played!

So i took my £425 order to Overclockers.co.uk who can also be bad, but at least there sodding website works.

So moral of the blog is, dont use them cheap cunts at CCL Computers

Happy New Year….

DEFINE: Phunky

PHUNKY derived from FUNKY, funky being an old 70's word has now been re-vamped to mean the same thing but now in punk/skater terms. Used if you think somethings good/cool.

Phunky.co.uk is the park bench for the internet tramp known as Mark 'Phunky' Harwood.

No im not really a tramp, but this place is my little crashing spot of the internet which i have been running on and off as my personal blog for a good 4 to 5 years now.

I am currently working in Steeton, West Yorkshire as the Lead Web Designer/Developer for ACORN Mobility Ltd and also Founding Director of mEm-Gaming.co.uk a UK Gaming Organization.

Thats about all i can think of right now
