Went down the river without my little distracting friend and caught a nice big batch of crayfish.

Thanks to my mate Dan for pointing me towards Pink Tentacle, a nice little tech blog with just the right strange mix of subjects that I like to read.

Have fun with photoshop by creating some gruesome images from your holiday snaps!
Found this one whilst randomly stumbling about the other day and it’s a superb little resource for some bloody photoshop fun.
