I haven’t been writing my blog this week not because I’ve fallen into a crevasse, but because I’ve been writing code. This was no pineapple birth. OK, so there was some raised voices at the end, but c’est normale huh? This puppy went live the day it was supposed to. And how.

This is the best website I’ve ever made. It wasn’t designed by me, or even conceived by me, but I made it. I based the functionality on an up to date drupal 6.2 installation. Messed with it as little as possible. Changed look and feel and added new flash/drupal integration technology that has hitherto only been thought of. Never done. Which is where my fee comes in. I can’t say how much it costs to build a website like the one below, but it’s non-trivial to me.

Have a look at the website now - and tell us…. by contacting cerosmedia.com or listingslab. Were you entertained?

Does anyone know?

Does anyone know if you can wash cats? My one seems to be getting a bit smelly.

So. What’s next?

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

So the skiing’s nearly done. The lifts are still open, but the snow is like glue now. There’s still good snow up high and the touring is good, but to be honest…. I think I might be finished skiing for the season. There’s the end of season party at the top of Grande Montets next weekend, and who knows…. perhaps I’ll find a bit of time to go touring at some point, but I’m really I’m done. I’ve started to think about going diving down on the Cote D’Azur in May, surfing in Mimizan on the Atlantic coast later in the summer and obviously there’s plenty of climbing and mountain biking here in Cham over the summer.

Now it’s time to work. I’ve been flat out for 3 or 4 days now, cranking out a website for a client who is exhibiting at the Internet World Expo early next week so until that project is done I reckon I’m going to be pretty busy working. It’s a great site though - my first proper commercial site using a flash display layer linked to a drupal CMS system. I can’t wait to show it off here on the blog when it’s ready.

Other than work there are still the parties. There’s a gap at the moment, which is probably just as well. Fred’s birthday the other night turned messy & there’s plenty more where that came from.

And now for the parties

Friday, April 18th, 2008

I’d forgotten about the parties. There I was thinking that there was just a couple of weeks of quiet, calm skiing at the end of the the winter and a slow winding down of the Chamonix bars and restaurants. But of course…. after working so hard for 5 months, the seasonaires are up for it. Starting last night with Fred’s birthday at Le Delice from where I got in at 8am. The La-La land party on Saturday and then the big end of season bash at the top of the GM next week. I feel like hiding.
