someone who's doing some things
I pulled a load of my samples of veteran cars into The Strange Agency’s Donut iPad app yesterday and had a lot of fun just manipulating them for a while. It made me think about doing something a little more permanent with these samples so I’m loading them into BeatMaker 2 to see what I can make that might be interesting.
When I’m done with it I’ll post up the results.
Ok, my last post about the veteran car rally for this year anyway. I’ve never had a programme from the rally before, so it was great to get one this year after so many years of watching the event.
A glass of ale and a film beckons for this evening. Peaceful.
Interesting what things from the past rise to the surface from time to time. I’ve had these two badges for many years now and I can’t remember the last time I saw them.
They bring back lots of good memories.
I’m really looking forward to getting this. I’ve enjoyed this series so far and this will be the third of 5. I hope that they all come out before the end of the year.
I realised today that I haven’t seen a single kid asking for a ‘penny for the guy’ this year. It seems to have become a lost tradition. Years ago I remember loads of kids by bus stops and stations all asking for a penny for the guy. Of course inflation had an impact and I’m sure I once heard a ‘pound for the guy’!
But now it seems to be no more. That’s a shame.
I love sparklers. I always have, and I thought this was a really good picture of one I enjoyed on Saturday.

I’ve been playing in GameSalad which lets you use it’s interface to make HTML5 games or any other kind of application for that matter. I made this drum ‘thing’ and thought I’d show it off. It isn’t finished, and I don’t know if I will finish it for that matter, but it is kind of fun to muck about with.
This year was the first time I actually helped out (sort of) with the veteran car rally. It’s an awesome event, and I’ve watched it to a greater or lesser degree for years and years now. This year for the first time I got a programme as well. In fact I didn’t even know that there were programmes for the rally.
I got a few half decent photos, or at least photos I think are half decent and I’ll post them soon enough, but I really liked this one a lot.
