I got home around 9pm last night and after dinner my priority was to upload my pictures from a historic and emotional day onto FlickR for the world to see. Photographs for once came before the blog, so here I am some 24 hours after the event, trying to keep my emotions on hold as […]

Chris had already seen it. Last night in fact. He had picked up his girlfriend from The Oracle, got home to Henley-upon-Thames, only to turn around and head back for the 10pm screening. (He was even willing to wait for the 11.15pm final show). To his surprise the theatre was empty with perhaps 20 people […]

It is a long time since I jumped on the computer straight after a quiet night out to blog. I rarely blog ‘live’ after the event these days. It usually takes me a few days to gather my thoughts and put a decent entry together. I must be showing my age, after all I have […]

Finally got around to cleaning up and updating my XBox this morning. Well when I say XBox I mean the software, XBox Media Centre. The last release of the software was dated Christmas 2005 and I uploaded it on 4th January this year. So for the past four months, I have left the software from […]

When I turn to my blog on a Friday there is a usually a feeling of some achievement, no matter how minor, hanging around. Tonight I begin writing this Friday evening, with an empty feeling inside. At the beginning of the week there was a burden of expectation to get a bucket load of work […]

There was a big doubt that I would make it to Friday and be able to finally enjoy the weekend. The moment came, just after 7.30pm when I put the volume up on the television and starting channel surfing the music television channels. I came across The Hits, who were showing the Top Fifty ‘Shoulda […]
Saturday 22nd April 2006
Saturday already? Where has the week gone? I have been far too busy trying to recall my weekend in Germany over Easter. I still have a bit to write up and the last two blog entries do need some refining. However, I thought I would quickly bring everyone bang up to date. What have I […]

Rather than taking the sensible option and sleeping on the flight back to Luton, I decided to jot down some notes for this entry on the back of a couple of business cards. The elderly gentleman, sitting next to me, working on Sudoku puzzle #247 from a daily newspaper, looked up rather bemused as I […]

My Sunday turned out to be far more busier than my Saturday, when in most cases it is usually the other way around. Around 7.30am, I heard my Mum in the kitchen, it was time to get up. Yet I had a thumping headache and the beginnings of a cold. I was not in the […]

Apparently in my review of the best geek watches of all time, a week ago, Hussein informs me that I missed out one of the big contenders. The Fossil Wrist Watch. Hope this inclusion, makes him happy. The Sky TV guide has changed with the music channels moving over to a new start of 340 […]
