Date: February 2008
Amendments:
| |
|
| |
Added the Wedding videos too |
| |
|
| |
Uploaded a video of Tina and I Volcano Boarding. Obtain one piece of wood, place on top of a dormant volcano, sit on it and let gravity mix with stupidity! |
| |
As everyone in the world seems to have one, I finally got a Facebook account. Good grief. If you know my real name you can search for me I guess. |
Date: June 2007
Amendments:
| |
Got the Videos page up and running. I'm especially proud of the leg-snapping Nevis Bungy vid, and the excellent Skydive clip. |
| |
|
| |
My Google adverts are actually paying for the site now! I'm very pleased. |
| |
Just for shits and giggles, I've bolted the old HighHander website onto DodgyBarnet.com.
It's ugly, but nostalgia-tastic.
Be aware that I will not be updating the content to the HighHander pages.
|
| |
Updated the M3 page with more software links, and pics of my new DS Lite. |
Date: August 2006
Amendments:
| |
Updated the site in regards to my move to
Korea
. I'll be here in Seoul for a year so did some house cleaning. |
| |
Made a fortune ($20) from Google last month! Hopfully this continues… Now clearly I would never recommend clicking on one of the advert links to help me out, as that would be against the Google TOS. Nope. Not me. Nu huh… |

Added the Ireland page with spiel and photos. |
 |
I've been feeling rather old lately, so to overcome this I've built a MySpace account to be just like every other l33t dØØd teenager. OMFG! LOL&ROFL: I've H4x0rd Myspace!!!11!one!!
To paraphrase someone funnier than me: " Myspace is like a nightclub with crappy music, crappy decor & crappy drinks, but it's where everyone else is; so you end up there too."
Quite.
|
 |
Updated the plans page to include, cunningly, new plans |
 |
Google adverts has so far made me $2.72! I'm on my way to becoming an internet millionaire I can feel it! |
 |
|
Date: April 2006
Amendments:
 |
Learned Flash, as you can see on the title page, and from the new banner at the top of each page.
Additionally, I've updated the Gallery photos so that they're in a sexy Flash slideshow; which is way prettier. More content along these lines will be added over time. |
 |
Added Google adverts to the site - It'll take time to see if "pays off". |
Date: March 2006
Amendments:
 |
Finally created a Gallery page with a selection of my best photos. I'll keep adding to it too. |
Date: February 2006
Amendments:

 |
Holy Crap! I've actually got off my arse and uploaded some photos!
I've been brooding over the scan quality of my South Pacific photos, but recently got over it and have uploaded photos for Tonga, Samoa and Fiji.
I have more on my computer that have been photoshopped, so I'll get on the case and upload them soon.
February should be a month of Photoshop and Dreamweaver for me. |
 |
Updated the plans page as I've made a change to the Canada road trip idea - it's been scrapped. |
 |
Added a search function (look at the bottom of the sidebar) which is rather nifty. Pretty useful I'd say. |
 |
Made a better 404 page. To those who don't know what this is; if you somehow get a broken link ( example) you'll go to a special page that helps you. This is where the Search function was first enabled. |
Date: November 2005
Amendments:
Lot's of stuff this month:
 |
Got engaged! |
 |
Updated a
whole host of pages as I've stopped teaching and am now living
in Calgary, Canada:
- The future plans page
- Where's Pauly
- Added an Alaska page
- Added a Canada page
|
 |
On a techy note; I've switched
hosting providers to the lovely ixwebhosting which
is achingly better than crappy yahoo in terms of both service
and price. Hopefully they prove to be reliable too.
|
Date: March 2005
Amendments:
 |
Added the
And Now For Something
Completely Different section is new too, and contains
lots of, well, different things. This was a big job so am
glad it's finally up. So far it contains:
 |
Hilarity -
A collection of funny stuff I've downloaded and been
emailed over the years. |
 |
ESL Questions -
a section devoted to ESL Questions. I use them every
day, if not every class. Just so damn useful. |
 |
Relaxation -
No mumbo-jumbo, no tuning into ' energies of Gaia',
just an easy no-nonsense guide to relaxation. |
|
 |
Added some more photos to the Korea page - Around
Seoul, and The Couple™ |
 |
Amended the Plans page as it's
been a while, and the finishing
line is coming into view for my time in Korea. |
 |
Just a quick note to say I'm rather
pleased to see that if you type " dodgy
barnet" into Google then this site is listed as #1
(of 4,000). I feel so special! I used to be miles down the
list!
That and I've now had over 10,000 hits to Dodgybarnet.com - Impressive
I think. |
Date: February 2005
Amendments:
 |
Updated the
mug-shots on the Korea
page as loadsa people have buggered off. |
 |
More photos
from drinking, 'theme-parking', and Santaring on the Korea
page. |
 |
Lots of techy
stuff:
 |
Setup images to preload into
the cache. In theory viewing of pages is more sexy
now. DodgyBarnet.com
is getting very graphics-heavy, but that's the price
of looking pretty I guess. |
 |
Corrected the loadscreen to be
mighty fine. |
 |
Added a background image to all
photos so people can know if the loading has got stuck.
Cunning. |
 |
Added a border to all images to make them look prettier.
Thanks to my PA! |
 |
Made a pretty Shortcut Icon:
Nice
huh? |
|
Date: January 2005
Amendments:
 |
Finally amended
the Blog after some time
off. |
 |
Moved the HighHander.com
website to a new location. I made this website for my poker
buddies as practice for making this version of DodgyBarnet.com
So, yeah, here you can find tournament photos, ranting, poker
news, and general poker based stuff all here. |
 |
Made a loadscreen
for the welcome page. Now things should load much smoother.
It's a bit of a MacGyver-esk dodgy job but I'm quite proud.
Yay! |
Date: October 2004
Amendments:
 |
Amended all of
the country pages:
| Korea |
- |
Put
up various photos from activities I've been up
to. |
|
| Tonga |
- |
Added
more stories, better maps, and details of my time
spent in the South Pacific. |
| Samoa |
| Fiji |
|
| New
Zealand |
- |
Finally
updated this page - I spent a year in Kiwiland
so it was a bit criminal that there wasn't any
details. All good now though. |
|
|
| Malaysia |
- |
Cleaned
up the pages, and added a few extra bits'n'bobs.
Unfortunately these pages wont get any photos
added for a fair old while as the negatives are
locked up in England, safe for the day when I
eventually settle down and buy a scanner. Bummer. |
| Thailand |
| Laos |
| Myanmar |
| Cambodia |
| Vietnam |
|
|
I'll add more to them as and when I think of funny things to
write. Cunning.
|
 |
|
Date: August 2004
Amendments:
 |
Put up loadsa drinking sessions
photos from about the town. See them HERE |
 |
Added to the
Teaching Blog - more hilarity
to be had in sunny funny Seoul. |
Big Stuff still to add: There
are no photos in either the Gallery,
nor many of the individual countries within the Photos
section, so that's first on my list. Additionally the whole of the
Hilarity section needs to be
built. Plenty to keep me busy when I should planning my lessons.
Date: July 2004
Amendments:
 |
Added a Teaching
Blog that gives a few extra entries that relate to my
experiences teaching here in South Korea. Nice.
Fully updated at the end of July with lots more stuff! |
 |
|
Date: June 2004
Amendments:
 |
Updated the
" International Playboy"
pages to account for me escaping from London and moving to
Seoul to become a teacher. The Dodgy Barnet is back on the
road! |
 |
Added more
links to the Links page. |
 |
Oh, and I put
photographic proof of the Dodgy Barnet circa 1996 and when
I was a cute kiddy on the FAQ
page. |
Date: May 2004
Amendments:
After 6 months of work on upgrading
the site from version 3, the new look DodgyBarnet.com is finally up. Admittedly a fair proportion of those 6 months was
spent doing other things than writing pithy prose and swearing at
my computer - I also had to go to work, drink, eat, drink some more,
sleep off drinking too much, go out drinking with friends again
anyhow… You get the idea.
