Oh yeah,
I noticed the other day that this site looks awful in Internet Explorer, I’ve screwed something up somewhere along the way. So I’ll try and sort it at some point on my way round the world. Although I have no idea how really, so hopefully it’s something simple.
Anyone viewing this in Internet Explorer should…
a: Download Firefox and view it in that, it’s a better browser anyway, who still uses Explorer?!
and b: Buy yourself a Mac, they are the future. And one day when computers are clever enough to think for themselves, Macs are gonna come alive and beat the crap out of PCs, and then they’ll probably turn on us and only someone like Will Smith will be able to save us. Ahhhhh well ay.

Yo yo y’all,
This is my first proper traveling post, I’m off on Saturday! Which is mental! I’m gonna be using 20sk as my travel blog, and for anyone too lazy to come here to look it’s all linked into the magic of Facebook. So you’ll be able to read my posts and stalk me at the same time! Poifect.
I’ve not got much else to say at the moment, I’ve still got shit loads to do, including packing, and only tomorrow to do it. The words “never gonna happen” were made for situations like this, but it’ll all work out I’m sure, and on the plus side I’m going to get myself a swanky new Ipod Nano today! Woop. I’ve spent so much money on stuff for traveling that I thought I should treat myself to something I actually want. And you can never have too many things that people want to rob off you!
Not sure when I’ll be checking t’emails etc, pretty much as and when I can. I’m sure I’l talk to a lot of you pretty soon. Keep in touch… Laters.

This is amazing!!! I’ve been saying for years they should make Ghostbusters 3 while the original cast are all still about! I even thought about writing it myself, but then realised a) it would suck, and b) I’m too lazy!
So I felt so happy today when a little story popped up on the BBC called Ghostbusters 3 ‘in development’… You have to read it… now…. quick! This is probably going to be the best film ever, you’ve been warned! Not only are they hoping to get all the original cast on board, it’s also being written by the writers of The American Office which is brilliant! I literally cannot wait, I just hope they don’t fuck it up!
Oh yeah this picture is of me as a kid, check out that jumper! Almost as cool as the mullet. This photo was also posted on a Ghostbusters site called Protoncharging.com… How cool am I!

I’ve been meaning to get myself a Moleskine for ages now, they’re cool little sketchbooks, now matter how overpriced they are! Anyway, I’ve got myself a few to take round the world with me, and this is the first.
I hate starting things like this, front covers and first pages! But I’d just had some Moo MiniCards delivered and this one seemed to fit on the front page nicely. Now there’s only the front page to sort!

I love doing stuff with quotes - and am also a fan of the old blurry image with strong type over it. And this is that. I quite like it.

“The only thing worse than a boy who hates you, is a boy who loves you.”
I’ve been reading The Book Thief for a while now, I did my usual thing of blitzing through the first three quarters and then really slowing down for the last bit. It’s a really good book though and I’ve started to read it again these last few days so should be finished soon.
It’s full of cool little quotes, the one that inspired this was one of my favourites.

I watched American Gangster a couple of weeks ago and thought it was awesome. Denzel Washington is always class, but I loved everything about this film… Even Russell Crowe!
There were some great moments, and some brilliant lines in the script. This was one of my favourite and yet another quick little mess about in Photoshop to get something out of it. Sort of turned out alright.

Right, since I’m leaving to travel the world in a week I thought I better get into the habit of blogging more often. I’ve been a bit slack with it lately, but been pretty busy getting things sorted. But now I’m flat chillin’ for the next year or so. Woop!
Anyway, this was just a really quick mess about with an idea I always wanted to do something with, didn’t really turn out how I wanted it. But I promised myself I’d start turning more of my ideas into real things no matter how crap they turn out.

I’m currently working on re-designing the website ExtremePie.com to give it a more urban/fashion feel rather than the pure sales feel it has now.
This is initial work on a proposed logo to suit this theme. ExtremePie is a company under the Extreme Group’s umberlla, they founded the Extreme sports channel, and as such the Oval EX logo needs to be a part of any Ex Pie logo.
I really like this as a starting point, but although it looks good on print work etc, it doesn’t really sit well on a website. So I need to go back to the drawing board I think.
