This it has to be said is a work or art. I may print it out and frame it. Or possibly render it in oils. Either way I reckon this message has the same effect on IT Managers as my first viewing of “Alien” did to me at the tender age of 13, sitting in a darkened bedroom listening on headphones so that my parents couldn’t hear – It scared the shit out of me. And so does this message […]

There’s a lot of old stuff in Oxford – everywhere you wander you look up and there’s some great Gothic building towering and quite often looking, down upon you. There’s a lot of “history” going on, everything feels old, even the water tasted ancient, but perhaps that’s just the pipes.
