It is strange when you build up to a moment in the short term, in the case here, the arrival of today. Yet, it does not quite live up to the expectation. Although for a change my expectations were low, I just wanted the afternoon to come around so I could leave. Not a fantastic […]

A very busy weekend for my last complete weekend in Newbury, so much so that I spent a great deal of it outside the town. It was Sachin’s 30th birthday on Friday and he had arranged a night out on Saturday in Leicester and invited me a long with many other old Uni pals. I […]

The US TV season is back in full swing and I now have a long list of television shows to watch, which take up most of the evenings in the week. GREEK obviously started first at the end of August but that has been joined by Heroes and The Big Bang Theory. We also have […]

I am still alive! I just have a the biggest backlog of all time to get through and just have not found the time to get around to blogging. There is so much to mention and so little time. I thought it best to flip the month over and continue to update the blog from […]

I took a half day today, to go and catch the crucial World Cup Qualifier at Wembley with Chris. While I perhaps could have just asked to leave earlier but it is not the same rushing to the stadium with everyone else leaving work. I would much rather head over and have plenty of time […]

Around ten past eight, this morning, I was hitting the Robin Hood Roundabout, heading to Norwich. I did not bring any of my CDs into the hire car (something else to forget at the end of the day). I listened to Radio One and would do for most of the day. A new song came […]

Day 1 – Friday 28th August Pav has been bugging me for years to come to Reading Festival. I suppose, as it is my local festival I should have made a bigger effort and I did go as far as to take the time off work last year (but never got tickets, so enjoyed just […]

I am back! I touched down at London Gatwick, around 4.30pm yesterday afternoon but it took me another three hours to collect my bags, get the coach to the car park and then drive home to Wycombe. However, traffic aside, it was good to be back in England. Having a nice long drive to acclimatize […]

Just before I headed off to Valencia, I took a half day holiday and achieved two things. I packed my case in readiness for my holiday and then hopped onto a train into London. The plan was to meet an old friend but it was an evening that would change my destiny, but I knew […]
Sunday 9th August 2009
Back from my walking weekend in Wales. Had a fabulous time, the scenery was amazing and managed to scale the dizzy heights of Snowdon and visit the brand new cafe at the summit. More to follow shortly, I am in a mad rush to head off to London but will be back to update this […]
