Bloody hell! I’ve won a shuffle!!

Posted by: Mark In: personal

I’ve not been online much over the last week or so. I’ve been off work prior to starting my new job on Monday, so I’ve not been keeping up to date with my usual feeds or reading any blogs.

A few minutes a go I decided to check my stats for this site & saw a few referrals from stuffandnonsense Andy Clarke’s blog. Intrigued, I decided to visit, and this is what I found.

As a result of this thread and possibly the link on my home page, I’ve ended up winning one of the shuffles Clarkey was offering up for grabs! I’m thrilled to bits.

The funny thing is I only just got round to ordering my copy of Transcending CSS on Friday last week & it arrived on Monday (I used some of the amazon voucher SSP gave me as my leaving pressie). I must confess I’m not very far through it, but so far it is every bit as good as I thought it’d be.

Some of the things I have learned from Andy over the past two or three years have helped me immensley in my career, and I’m sure I’ll get a lot more out of the book & the Ipod!

My lovely shiny shuffle arrived just over a week ago…

So far it’s kept me entertained on a couple of trips to the gym; it’s ideal for that sort of situation to be honest. I only ever used my nano in shuffle mode in the gym anyway - the screen is more or less redundant. It’s pretty tricky to read and run on a treadmill at the same time.

My only slight gripe with the shuffle is that the “Transcending CSS” inscription is sooo tiny I’m never gonna impress anyone with it from a distance ;)

Anyway, thank you Mr Clarke for the generous gift; I’ll try and get it on flickr over the next few days for those that are interested.

[...] seen Andy (Mallarkey) Clarke speak several times, as well as reading his book & winning an iPod Shuffle from him I wasn’t dissapointed. Steve was a good speaker too What was billed as a fight ended [...]
