How to remove Gradient stepping in you Windows Phone 7 background

Posted by Slim2k on September 20, 2011 in Development, Mango, Smartphone, Windows phone 7, WP7

I am currently in the final stages of my new Windows Phone 7 application which is a Christmas countdown, But while finishing off the UI, I ran into a irritating issue where if I used a gradient fill option in my application, the stepping (where one colour starts and another stops) was visible, making the application look a bit rough on the eye. … continue reading.

The best no knead Ciabatta recipe Ever!

Posted by Slim2k on August 5, 2011 in Home made, Intresting, Me, Personal Post

So I have been on a quest for the perfect Ciabatta bread recipe. I love this bread, I love the big holy texture the hard crust and also the Taste.

Now I usually stick to my white bread recipe and my whole grain recipe which is all very well for everyday consumption, but its not really that special when it comes to entertaining or bringing back memories of the good food we have had in Italy over the years!

Finding a place to eat in London

Posted by Slim2k on June 23, 2011 in Food, London

Well, this is a personal post more than what I am currently up to in the world of work. but I am off to London this weekend so my fiancée can enjoy her christmas present finally (Tickets to see Bon Jovi @ Hard Rock calling 2011).

So the past 2 weeks we have been on the look out for somewhere cool to eat while we are there. Usually we aim for a high end restaurant that we both fancy and then hit up a chain and any other indpenant we fancey while walking past for the 3/4 days we stop over. But this time we want american fare to keep in theam with the rocking weekend and also both really want a buger after talking about in-N-out the other day (We miss that place so much)

So I set off on my research quest to find a place that ticks all the boxs’ reasonably priced, good food and drinks in a nice environment. first stop was Google the tool for any internet user that has a question they need answered. after numinous searceh, I fend I am being presented with the same first page of results and they are all restaurant booking /  review sites. “where am I going with this I hear you ask” Well these sites are all every good and I kind of agree with what some of them say from past experience, I feel the main stream restaurants are getting the spotlight and smaller hidden gems are being missed.

 

So I am asking you, my visitors recommend me a place where I can get a good buger fries and cocktail and leave some comments about where you like to crash out and get your food fix’s
