I’m feeling better now. This morning and the resultant day I was feeling pretty down. I don’t do well unless my mind is occupied, also eating and drinking with hot weather (plus sunburn) don’t really make you feel good. I’ve just installed Aperture on the computer and imported photos so I can upload them. That’s […]
I realised last week it’s been around 18months since I’ve had a proper holiday abroad. Coupled with doing far less travel from work, I’ve missed seeing sunshine. Thankfully this is remedied now and I’m in Bali on holiday. The route here is via Singapore. Singapore Airlines has amazing service, from checkin right through to disembarking […]
I love doing mental arithmetic. I guess it comes from doing ‘times tables’ at primary school every morning where the whole class would run through a given table (e.g. 1×2 =2, 2×2 =4, 3×2 =6, etc.).

I’ve been doing quite a bit of reading and researching into future technologies and how they will enhance our lives. I realised that the BBC in their usual innovative way (yes, iPlayer is a fantastic product and well worth paying the license fee for) have come up with something that is already doing this. Helping […]
BBC News Online, headline “Returning Britons say Tripoli airport ‘is like a zoo’” Maybe, but they arrived back in Gatwick Airport – that’s just like arriving back at hell !
Spotted this on the train recently. You see your average Cambridge vandal has excellent detail. In this case, here’s the sign in the train loo: The sign states that the seat lid has to be lowered. Therefore: It’s lowered to the lowest possible position – the floor !
I went to bed last night feeling down. This morning I felt terrible. I usually walk to the main road to meet the cab in the morning. I couldn’t even be bothered to do that this morning. There are too many things up in the air right now and also things that I need to resolve, […]
