Manchester Pride Parade 2010

on Mon, 08/30/2010 - 10:41

On Saturday I went in to Manchester city centre with some friends to watch the Pride Parade, part of the Manchester Pride weekend. This was sure to be a colourful and photogenic event so of course I took my camera. Even with the odd rain shower it was still plenty of fun.

Unfortunately we didn't get a brilliant spot (a small run-in with a pissed-up street urchin and her dog delayed us), so many of my pictures had heads in them from the crowds in front. If I go next year I'll be sure to go early and get a front-row position. View my parade pictures on Flickr

Experimenting with Drupal Gardens

on Sun, 08/22/2010 - 17:42

Drupal Gardens is an online service for quickly developing and launching cost-effective websites based on Drupal 7. Infact, up to a generous threshold, developing, launching and hosting is FREE!

As a full-time Drupal-based web developer I've been meaning to try out Drupal Gardens for a while. This weekend I set myself the task of building a personal website for myself. However, I've ended up with three! monki.drupalgardens.com and paulgregory.drupalgardens.com are two possible alternatives for my existing www.monki.info and islamay.drupalgardens.com will eventually replace www.isla-may.co.uk.
