I have just gone and spent £113.00 on a motorcycle helmet. Oppps and I don’t even own a motorbike. But I do have RST Pro Series 1 Piece Leather Suit and RST Razor Sport Boots, so the helmet was next. Maybe best not 2 ask, why I have all this gear 🙂 Lets just say it looks very sexy on the right lad! 😛
Oh yes should really tell you which one I am getting. It’s a HJC ZF-10 Karlie in Blue, to go with the rest of the gear. Getting it from sportsbikeshop.co.uk.
Just been watching “The World’s Worst Place to Be Gay?” on BBC Three. Where Scott Mills travels to Uganda where the death penalty could soon be introduced for being gay. The gay Radio 1 DJ finds out what it’s like to live in a society which persecutes people like him and meets those who are leading the hate campaign.
Makes me remember just how lucky I am to openly gay man living in the UK. You can watch the full program if you live in the UK, using the link below.
Below is an map showing where our visitors are viewing the website from. The data covers the last 13 days. So well pleased with the 2,485 visitors this website has now had.
That’s my villages new look website now LIVE!! Which I did a bit about on my blog a number of days ago. Still got lots of pages to add from the old website. But it’s fast getting there. So please check it out www.thebythams.org.uk and let me know what you think of it here! 🙂
The only another two other things I did today, was to do my weekly food shopping at Morrisons and give my car a much needed car. Think all I ended up doing was moving the mud off him and onto myself.
I now have my very own copy of Dream Boy, which I rented from LOVEFiLM.COM last week. It was so good, I had to get my very own copy. Think the cover says it all “Like Brokeback Mountain set in high school.” it’s now been added to my list of must see gay films…
Here is my top six gay films to watch.
A list of other gay films can be found my about me page.
Sorry about this website being off-line for a good 4 hours today, it was due to a DDoS (distributed denial of service) attack against the people that host this website. The down time started at around 11:50am to around 4:30pm GMT. Want to read about about this problem then check out status.34sp.com.
Now onto some other stuff. At long last, I sorted myself out another hard drive, so I can backup at all main files. I use to be very good at backing everything up, till I got so much stuff even copying it all on to DVDs was taken 2 long. So I got myself a Western Digital 250GB Passport Portable USB 2.0 hard drive, from dabs.com, which set me back £34.99. Spent lots of day backing up data. So far 23.2 GB (19,130 photos) and now doing all my SD videos, which is a 52.3 GB which is going to take a wee while…
Also and also starting to fun job of redoing another one of my website. Lucky this time it’s one that I run with a friend, so hello Mark. It’s about the village that we both live in. So old (still live) version of the website can be found at www.thebythams.org.uk and the new version (not live) we’re working on can be found at www.thebythams.org.uk/thebythams/.
Oh and big thank-you to everyone that’s said good things about this new look website so far :). Still got a lot to do, but it’s getting there 🙂
Sorry about posting a blog about this, but it made my day when I read it on the Join Freesat website. Means from April Freesat will have 4 HD channels, all free of course. BBC 1 HD, BBC HD, ITV1 HD and now CH4 HD. Why people pay so much for $ky HD, I have no idea, when you get the best HD channel for free. Well that’s if you like like sport that is…
Freesat also got the BBC iPlayer, with the ITV player coming very soon. Does $ky have them? Mmmm think’s think NO!
Just got around to watching a film called “Dream Boy” that I rented from LOVEFiLM.COM last week. If your into your gay films, then it’s sure one for your list. It’s about two gay teenagers who fall in love in the rural South of America during the 1970s. Not going to say much else about it, just in case you have never watched it I would give it 8.5/10.
Since this new website went live, I have been asked where do I find all your vlogs and other video’s that use to be one the old website. To make things nice and easy I have set up two new categories on the blog.
Still go lots and lots to post. So till they are all back on-line check out video section on my old website — archived.gordon-valentine.com/videos/.
Thanks everyone for all your comments about the website so far… Hoping to make this new look website go fully live in the next week or so… Don’t worry, I will not be deleted the old website. I will just be archiving it. So you can still look at all the pages, that I don’t copy over to the new look website.
The pages I have copied over the website so far today are…
Also copied over my driving blog, which can be found at www.gordon-valentine.com/category/driving/. Plus added a YouTube videos widget, so can you see my latest 3 vlogs 🙂
Here are some website facts for you:-
