Agreed. Themes, themes, themes, and themes!.

OK. Changed it now - better? I think so, may not be exactly what I wanted but the limited bandwidth from the crappy satellite internet on the rig kinda restricts browsing through hundreds of themes. I'll have a good search when I get back home to proper internet.

Looks much clearer to me

petemc · 09-09-2007, 16:44

Yup much nicer, and kudos for using the Apple theme

I didn't actually make the Apple connection until after I'd installed it - I suppose the name "itheme" should have given the game away but there are so many things nowadays which have nothing to with Apple which stick an i on the front, that it's not always an indication that it is in any way associated (that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it

).

whoo blogs are ace

and good to see you've switched to WP

My Blog isn't as well used as it used to be and equally doesn't have the same content, but i keep bashing at it and posting things when i can... it was much easier to blog before i came to uni and started 'doing stuff' that gets in the way of a good post!

Interesting read about the job Stan

I've been meaning to make a long post here about my work for a while now since most people seem interested when I talk about it (maybe they're just being polite

). I thought, since I'm starting the blog, I may as well put it up there for all the world to see.

I've just made another post a few minutes ago about safety on the rig and my recent award, if anyone's interested.

Thanks for posting my first comment Jen

I'll need to do a few non work related posts soon to even things up a bit. Since I'm on the rig just now, I'm naturally focussed on that but will try to get my mind onto something else.
When I get home, I would imagine there will be more beer and whisky reviews than anything else

Ramble about any old crap if you get stuck, it's what I've done in the past
