New Domain!

Picture from Balncra Arts

Hello everyone,

The new domain, emmamaree.com, is just about finalized – still got a few tweaks to do before we redirect everything over, but from here on out all links to the used-goods.net/forbidden_knowledge/ blog redirect to the relevant posts on emmamaree.com. If you link to the blog at all, please change the address.

I hope everyone likes the new site design. The blog posts are now on the main page for all to see, and the design now integrates a bit more closely with the forum and the new store.

Some picture-laden stories from Edinburgh will follow shortly. We were hoping to go to Inverness’ rock night Alternative X this weekend, but unfortunately (at no fault of the organisers) the Ironworks won’t take Citizencards for ID so my fiance got refused entrance.

I could rant for a while on the messy situation regarding IDs where in most places you need a passport (which is unwise to carry about with you) or a full driver’s license (which I have no chance of affording at present). Government PASS-marked cards like Citizencard should be accepted in most places, according to their site, but it barely ever works so they’re a bit of a waste of money. A few people have suggested provisional driving licenses, but it seems a bit hit-and-miss who accepts those? Comments are welcome there.

Never mind, though – Hi-Ex next weekend! Quite excited about my first visit to the Highlands’ Comic Expo – it should be great seeing some of the more indie publications advertising there, and the artists themselves. Also, Stormtroopers! <3

Update: Alex has pointed out that the provisional driving license should be accepted in most places. However, Ironworks remains an exception to the rule.
