Continue readingI had a great weekend. It was good, really good. My parents came up to stay on Friday night and I cooked pizza for them. Then on Saturday we went into Bicester and chose some new stair carpet (will just…
Continue reading1. Went swimming after work today. Strangely, when I first arrived there were so few people around it was flat calm. 2. Had an email invite from Swimathon for next years sponsored swim. Shall I do it again? If I…
Continue readingPartly in a response to a resupply request of some Electronic Deliverables made by TechBooks in which, in additon to supplying them to the ftp site they sent me a copy of the file: mnr_v0_i0_aor_g9E7B1C7A-0716-4F26-B756-B5B2788E7562.go with the message: p.s.: Although…
Continue readingI used to know exactly how many interviews I’d had – now I forget – but it’s something like 60 since the Summmer of 96 (maybe I should write a rock song by that name… *grins*). Certainly I was on…
Continue readingIt’s been coming for a while now, but with no end date or details it’s been hard to really plan for things, except to apply for other things as they come up. On 30 April 2007, the job role of…
Continue reading1. An odd day. Very heavy rain greeted an even darker than usual morning – so dark, so wet, that I failed to see the ocean sized puddle out the back of the house as I ran across to get…
Continue readingAn ethereal light greeted me this morning; the sky cast in red, and a mist over the fields. The drive through Oxfordshire countryside lost something as I neared work, as gentle, serene mist seeped in grey fog and cold drizzle….
Continue reading1. Bella went to visit Aunty Gemma for the day today, and has come back microshipped and shaven down one side. An awfully large area of shaving considering the small operation performed. Next weekend, if the weather is fine, my…
Continue readingThe subject line to this post just about sums up my weekend. But it’s been better than that. I’ve not begun re-reading Blood & Fire yet, but I have made a start on a first ‘prologue’ chapter to Mr Tumnal….
Continue readingNot a particularly great day today. A couple of bad YouWriteOn reviews didn’t start the day off too good. This is coupled with general uncertainness about my future once the Validation Tool is fully rolled out (at a yet too…
Continue readingI try to write for myself, and the most part I do, but even so, I thought a few of my recent posts might have made a little bit of noise in the ether. Take this, or this? Maybe this…?…
Continue readingToday I was emailing back and fourth with Elizabeth Ewing aka. Kerner who works with me, all be it in the Edinburgh office, about this and that (mostly it has to be say the glamness of Bella’s new collar) but…
Continue reading1. I left work today with everything I arrived at work with, but including the kitchen sink. Yes, after last week’s tap delivery, I now all that I need for my new kitchen – err, that should be new kitchen…
Continue reading1. Took advantage of some terribly dull and unimportant football match yesterday to get into the centre of Oxford and do som necessary shopping in advance of Venice and Beyond. Bought myself a new down sleeping bag from Blacks –…
Continue readingSo two days on, and two days into my thirty-third year, what did I get for my birthday. Curiously all food and drink related. I got a stove-top espresso maker and cups, a juicer (which if handled rightwrong) spits chunks…
Continue reading1. What a gorgeous day it was today. After the traffic chaos of the past couple of days, I actually managed to get to work on time today – which is good because oddly, not being a morning person I…
Continue reading1. Describe your ‘ideal’ woman. I think that I am more of a personality person than looks. Kind and smiley, would be musts. There should be something about the eyes too I think. Someone who is honest and trustworthy. Someone…
Continue readingFirst off, let me say thanks to you all those who commented on my last post. You are all such kind, thoughtful people, on what has been an odd sort of day. Today has definitely been the day that I…
Continue readingAs everyone will be aware by now, I didn’t drown in the process of doing my sponsored swim. Ermm, no … however my weekend was not without injury… I now have a fetching scar/burn running in a line across my…
