OK, I thought I'd start this off with a list of a couple of key differences between life here and back at home, primarily cos that means I can walk around the flat photographing stuff. 1. Washing Machine – it's in the kitchen. I mean, what the hell's up with that !? This is ENGLAND…
The London Underground truly is an amazing thing. The only reason I can think of for why it's so hot down there is that it's closer to the Earth's core than I'm used to being. Today I caught the tube down to Canary Wharf for the FIRST DAY OF MY NEW JOB (that's another story)…
ATTACK OF THE CLOWNS ! Elite Horsham rock outfit “Attack of the Clowns” are having their final gig on August 28th, and I wouldn't be much of a diehard devotee if I didn't mention it here ! AotC have rocked Horsham before, and once or twice I've even been there to witness it (in between…
OK, there's possibly not ninjas. I just unwrapped a new shirt the other day – for my interview, and all – and once again was confounded by the number of pins that shirt manufacturers secrete within those things. It truly takes some concentration to get all those damn things out, and it's a long-held belief…
I suppose that upon reading my last entry, you could probably construe my mood as being somewhat less than perky. I guess it was true at the time, but in reality it's not all that bad. I do however want to say a BIG BIG THANKYOU to all the people who sent me emails as…
If it was just the not having a job, then that wouldn't bother me so much. Ditto for the not having much money… But the combination of everything's really getting me down at the minute. I feel really bad about still being here at Richie and Ciaran's place, because I was *hoping* to have a…
Another few days to catch up on… once again I've been head down, arse up in programming mode writing more little doohickeys for my website. The most visually obvious of these is my map thingo, which with any luck I can keep reasonably up to date as I move about the place. I've got a…
Wow, just re-reading those last couple of messages it's no wonder so many folks emailed me saying I was a bit of a grumpy-guts ! It wasn't all THAT bad, I promise. OK, well today I wandered over to the Psychology Dept. of Oxford Uni to help out with a research study. It was a…
Is it just me, or does everyone experience “chain cockups” ? I know I've been getting this for a fairly long time now, and I keep thinking it's just my luck and all, but maybe other people get it too ? Who knows. I've already mentioned the job related nonsense going on for me at…
Well that's a hell of a way to start a day – I got a call from the recruiter dude saying that this job won't be starting until Wednesday now… I turned my phone off for a little bit to recharge it in the hostel dorm, and when I turned it back on there was…
