It’s a beautiful day and I’m annoyed with myself having gotten the days mixed up. Yesterday was dull and drab and I wasted away the day. Instead of getting all the stuff I needed to get done over the weekend done then, I left it ’til today. And of course… today is a nice day […]

I feel restless, in one of those moods where I want to go out and do something. No rephrase that, I need to do something. Something that I wouldn’t normally do. What hit my mind when I woke up this morning was ‘Paris’. Some really nice food, nice drinks, in a different environment. I really […]

Large lunch today, so decided to try and skip dinner. Of course watching TV I see an ad for bacon and the hunger sets in. Decide that I will do bacon for breakfast tomorrow, so instead think ‘chips’. I call the local kebab shop (2 mins walk away) and order, told 10 mins. I’m thinking […]

I managed to avoid the Apple Store in London today, attending a work lunch instead. Some nice Spanish Chorizo, Black Pudding, although not quite as good as the platter I had the other night. Got back to Cambridge and the temptation I couldn’t resist. So I went to the Apple Store and had a look. […]

So I watched the Apple keynote yesterday. I was worried that after my recent MB Pro purchase they’d re-spin the hardware. Okay, they did bump the speed of the high end model to 2.8GHz, but it was build-to-order option so I wouldn’t have gotten it anyway. In short, I still have the latest technology !  […]

Okay, so it feels like Winter now. 1.7C outside this morning. As I stepped out the house I felt ‘mmh, this feels quite nice, a fresh chill in the air’. A few minutes later (with a reasonably thick jacket on) I felt ‘no, this is cold’. Thankfully I have 3 trips to warmer places planned […]

I still feel tired. Not sure why, but again this morning I just wanted to stay in bed. I guess in part it is the weather, that feeling of being nice and warm in bed and not wanting to get out of it !

I feel tired. Great company, great drinks, great food last night. But I ended up not getting home last night until after 12, with a full stomach. I woke up this morning so so tired – one of these days where you wish you didn’t have a meeting to go to and just keep under […]

Technically this isn’t breakfast, since I already had muesli when I woke up this morning. However, it is before 12 and is similar to what I’d have eaten for breakfast if I had been more alert: Sunday Times – I always buy this on a Sunday. I actually only read the magazines and finance sections. […]

[Warning, this is a rant, but I need to get it off my chest] I’m back. I would have blogged yesterday, but the usual 3rd world cell infrastructure in the UK prevented me doing so. Well, it’s great to be back to familiarity. I’m glad to say that I was presented with all the nonsense […]
