Dom supports Manchester Utd, Stephen supports Southampton. So what better way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon than to invite them round, ply them with booze then sit down to watch the match together. I try to mediate as the insults fly. Saints seal a 1-0 victory in the 88th minute.

The boys are ready for another Saturday of football. With Bennett off watching Brighton & Hove Albion again, Dom hijacks his computer to check up the team line-ups on the internet.

That's more like it. The Box Office is graced by the prescence of Ruth, Bars Supervisor. What am I staring at, Ruth? Must have been some fascinating sheets of paper you've got there. I'm not in any way trying to peek down your top, nope, not at all, no way. Glad we cleared that up.

I've run out of things to say about pictures like this one. Sorry.

Wednesday 27/08/03 by Phil Newton

Sitting at Debbie's desk today. Didn't do a very good job of setting up the camera.

Tuesday 26/08/03 by Bev Parke

Back in the office after a weekend of movie overload. We didn't get back from London til gone 2am. All I want to do right now is get some sleep, but those phones are ringing again. Must remember to book an extra day off next year.

With Steve outside the Prince Charles cinema on the final day of Frightfest. We've just sat through the unintentionally funny House Of The Dead, the 14th movie of this year's Festival. Only three more to go then... will we make it with our sanity intact?

With Chrissy outside the Prince Charles cinema. We've just watched the spooky Korean movie Phone and are having a quick break before the next movie starts. The guy to my left is Paul McEvoy, one of the Frightfest organisers, the guy to my right is Eric Valette, director of Malefique.

Sitting in the Prince Charles cinema, Leicester Square as the credits roll on the movie Tattoo. Steve, Chrissy and I are here for Frightfest, which takes place here every August Bank Holiday weeked. We've got 17 films to get through over 4 days... Tattoo is the first movie on Day 2.

It's August Bank Holiday weekend, I'm sporting a fresh haircut and have come up to London for a few days. I've standing outside the Music & Video Exchange at the bottom of Berwick Street in the heart of Soho, a great place to trawl the racks for cheap CDs.

Thursday 21/08/03 by Debbie Page

I'm reading Dead Famous by Ben Elton. Well, trying to anyway.

Wednesday 20/08/03 by Dominic Plucknett

No, I don't know what Bev's up to here either.

Tuesday 19/08/03 by Dominic Plucknett

Looks like I've slipped into a trance here!

Monday 18/08/03 by Bev Parke

I've lowered my standards again in the cause of art. If only I could have known then that this picture was going to end up published in The Argus one day.

Sunday 17/08/03 by Phil Newton

The football season is underway, I've got Premiership Plus on cable and I'm watching the match between Leeds Utd and Newcastle Utd which ends up being a 2-2 draw.

Saturday 16/08/03 by Bev Parke

Look at those happy smiling faces! It's kick off for the new Premiership football season today and we're all ready for those goals to start flying in.

It's my birthday, I'm 33 years old today. My friend from Thailand, Sean, is also celebrating his birthday today back home in Cape Cod, hence the scribbled message. We also share our birthday with Matt Johnson from The The, who's Soul Mining album lent its name to my user ID.

Thursday 14/08/03 by Phil Newton

Those 3-D glasses can mean only one thing - I've decided to check out Spy Kids 3-D down at the UCG cinema this afternoon. I enjoyed the first couple of Sky Kids movies, but this one is laboured and the 3-D gimmick just ends up annoying me.

Wednesday 13/08/03 by Phil Newton

Dom and I try out the old camera-on-the-floor trick again.

Tuesday 12/08/03 by Gary Jackman

Stephen's come up from Southampton to help run HD2 with Dave whilst Gary goes off to the United States on holiday.

Monday 11/08/03 by Dominic Plucknett

Just another boring picture of me at my desk I'm afraid.

Sunday 10/08/03 by Phil Newton

Catching the rays.

Saturday 09/08/03 by Jim Turner

Dom keeps us entertained by running around the office with a dirty tea towel on his head. Good effort Dom!

Friday 08/08/03 by Jim Turner

Caught sending emails on Bev's computer again.

Thursday 07/08/03 by Phil Newton

Jim is our other Box Office rock star. He plays bass with Assam Rifles and is singer, songwriter and guitarist with his own band The Dirty Tricks. They are like a slightly more mature Busted and they ROCK!

Wednesday 06/08/03 by Polly Cole

Dom prepares to defend his title in our Fantasy Football competition. He also unveils his new beardy-Dom look.

Tuesday 05/08/03 by Phil Newton

I've just flown in from Newcastle and am now back home busy unpacking my stuff.

Monday 04/08/03 by Susan Newton

The hot weather continues in Stocksfield, I enjoy the last day of my break away from the South coast.

Sunday 03/08/03 by Phil Newton

Mum and Dad's close friends Jean and John have come down from Scotland to spend the day with us. Dad and John were colleagues at Newcastle University before both retired.

Saturday 02/08/03 by Phil Newton

Another fine day up North. I'm sat outside reading again - I've finally done with Stephen King and have moved onto the excellent South Of The Border, West Of The Sun by Haruki Marukami, which I finish in one day. Wildlife-cam courtesy of the bird table hiding amongst all the plants.

Friday 01/08/03 by Phil Newton

My parents live in the small Northumbrian village of Stocksfield, near Hexham, and about 30 minutes west of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. We're enjoying a heatwave in the UK at the moment, so Dad is busy working in the garden whilst I survey their new pond.
