Can't say I'm overwhelmed with confidence about our building security arrangements here… I know that in the main, the primary group inconvenienced by building security are in fact the day-to-day users of the building, however I can't help but think that the numpties in charge of this place have somewhat missed the point. In my…
Grabbed a couple of happy snaps of the view from the office yesterday… The trouble is, with the dirty window (that's the thing about summer here – it rains often enough to get splodges on the windows, but not often enough to wash the splodges off), and the generally bleak weather yesterday, it's kinda hard…
Note to self: don't bother opening a bottle of sparkling red to share with housemate until said housemate has actually arrived home. It ends badly. Sadly, I didn't get to writing about my Stockholm or Falconry trips like I'd intended to, but on the upside, I did manage to cook up a load of Tom…
It's true, I've been watching Father Ted a lot lately… It's not exactly all advanced or subtle humour, but it's still got me giggling like mad, and it has my contemporaries rolling their eyes as they've all been through this back when it first came out (about 10 years ago) and it's just me who's…
Speaking of wondrous geography, at the behest of Patrick, I have been having a bit of a go at the latest toy from those crazy boffins in the Google Labs, Google Earth. I can't say I've thought of a practical use for it, but it's quite a lot of fun ! It's pretty mind blowing…

A handful of them are very very good at what they do, thorough, and conscientious (Jill, if you're reading…
OK, so let's talk about Live 8, before I completely forget what happened there. On Saturday I went in to Hyde Park with Paul, Em, and Em's brother Andrew, to be part of the crowd for possibly the biggest rock concert ever held. There's probably not that much point in going on about the goal…
Well it's hard to know, as I haven't actually left the house yet, but it seems that London's gotten up, dusted itself off a bit, and gotten back to whatever it was doing as much as practical. In a sense, apart from the enormous “Whoa, what the hell was that” feeling, it's business as usual…
Hey there… some of you have probably heard about the explosions on the tube and london buses today by now. Just to reassure, I'm fine. At this stage details on what's going on are in disarray… Am not gonna be providing up-to-the-minute coverage; BBC and CNN are much better at that. But yeah, thanks for…
