I'll need to raise the action a bit for slide anyway as it's sat very low, and also get a slide of some description, so that'll probably wait for a bit.

The common open tunings are fun for a while, but I find them limiting since it's much more difficult to play in a variety of keys than it is in standard. Maybe it's just my inexperience.
One I really liked and didn't feel had that limitation was Robert Fripp's "New Standard Tuning"- CGDAEG. You'll need to buy custom gauge strings- .008 or .009 for the top G (a m3rd above standard, so prone to breakage- apparently Fripp's original NST had a high B- good luck with that) and heavier strings for the low end. Loads of possibility with that one though- big chunky down-tuned power chords on the low strings, odd intervals within easy reach to freshen up your soloing (and blues cliches are still just about achievable if you really need them). Well worth a go if you're dabbling in the world of alternate tunings.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
I played all the Minnaars stuff on either DADDAE or DADGAE. Worth a fiddle.
Tuning is (low to high):
C G C G C C - So the top two strings are both tuned to the exact same note, giving you a 12 string type effect.
I found when I played in that tuning I was getting some lovely folky/ celtic stuff coming out, even though that's not really what the two songs I initially tuned to it for sound like.
