What, who, where am I?!?
Craig Lotter is a web developer based in Gordon's Bay, South Africa, who seems completely incapable of shaking off that pesky inner child within, the one that forces him to love all things animated or hand drawn.
The Rugged Rock of Craig contains snippets of his life, popular culture and all the important things like anime, manga, games and comic books. The CodeUnit of Craig on the other hand contains the more serious stuff like code snippets and tutorials, while the House of C chronicles his foray into the world of web comics.
For which it never seems he has enough time anyway.

Day of Goodwill 2011

Here’s an interesting note. Despite the fact that almost everyone always talks about Boxing day as being the public holiday directly following Christmas, officially its name has been Day of Goodwill since 1980 already! Anyway, moving right along, I did … Continue reading

Hagglunds in Gordon’s Bay

There was a time when Bertie’s Mooring was the chomping spot of choice for Chantelle and myself out here in Gordon’s Bay, but as all things are eventually bound to do, this changed, and we have since fallen in love … Continue reading

Christmas 2011
