Like many people I bought the tickets an age ago – around December last year, and so the night arrived and we were not disappointed. Having seen Robbie Williams in 2006 @ MK Bowl (see old review) he did have a lot to live up to as that was a great concert. And I always go on record by saying I will not usually listen to him at home or anything, but his live performances have always been great. (more…)
I've always liked Hugh Laurie from the days of Jeeves and Wooster, Blackadder, House (of course) and his occasional foray into film. It's not often you do get to see…
I’ve always liked watching Bill Bailey on TV, mainly for the musical humour as well as briefly watching him on QI etc. and obviously Blacks Books.
So it was for my birthday that I was presented with tickets to see him on the 15th June 2013 at Wolverhampton Civic Hall.
Being honest I wasn’t sure what to expect from the comedy part of it. (more…)
The set was amazing, before a single guitar had been strummed it was looking like it would be an amazing Bon Jovi show!
After an amazing 3 hour set we were not disappointed.
Opening with That’s What the Water Made Me (a track from the new album What About Now) instead of one of their stable old classics. It was clear not all were yet familiar but it was a bold decision non-the-less. This was followed by a slightly more well known song – You give Love a Bad Name… and as soon as the opening chords were played the stadium became alive.
Programming would be a bit useless without being able to evaluate conditions using if/end and switch statements. If/Else statements is obviously a great tool, but they aren’t optimal (or necessary) in all situations. And so I introduce you to … PHP Shorthand If Notation or the Ternary Operator.
Ternary operator takes the form “(condition) ? (true return value) : (false return value)” to shorten your if/else structures.

Our Hawaiian Cruise (and visit to Los Angeles) on board the Golden Princess Cruise November-December 2011.
During this trip we visited the Hawaiian Islands and spent a few nights in Los Angeles on the way back.
OK, it’s taken me over a year to finish writing this up – keep not finding time to do it! I will add some photos in the next few days.
