Drupal Science Camp

Last weekend I went to Drupal Science Camp for some open-source goodness, and I took the space suit along (you know, just in case).

Our venue was terrific - Napp Pharmaceuticals kindly allowed us to use their brand new office building at Cambridge Science Park. The interior turned out to be ultra-futuristic, a perfect opportunity for a cheesey sci-fi photo shoot. So on Sunday morning, I got suited up and put some blue face-slap on. Lots of attendees wanted their photos taken with the infamous Drupal Space Man!

Afterwards, Stefan helped me out by taking these photos. I'm thrilled to bits with the results, even though my helmet was on a bit squint.

Photoshoppers... do your worst!

Flower Power Jeans

Red and black hipster jeans with a floral print.

Look at these little beauties I have for you... just look at them!

I found these in a delightfully scuzzy second-hand shop yesterday. The same place that the silver sequined waistcoat came from. I'll see if I can get some action shots for you sometime.

Ringmaster Macpherson's Diabolo of Death

We held a Secret Santa at work, and look what I got - my very own product prototype!

One of the web designers took a cheap diabolo and doctored the packaging with the now-legendary harlequin outfit photo.

I am chuffed to bits with my present, and I can't bring myself to remove it from the packaging. Diabolos I can obtain anytime, but this is a work of art.

It suffered a few knocks on the journey pub-crawl home, which lends an extra gnarl of authenticity. Like the last one left in Poundstretcher.

Bonus points for cutting the dirty green wellies out!
