For me to be updating the site during the weekday. I am going to Wrexham this weekend to see one of my long term best friend&#8217;s, Dave. He moved to Wales, in 1995 and I haven&#8217;t seen him in nearly 3 years. Therefore, I thought I would give a quick update and apologise for not (as usual!) spending \nanytime this weekend updating the site. I will do, next weekend, and I can guarantee there will be some surprises! There will be more photographs, and a few additional \npages, that I have been working on behind the scenes. Plus, a host of new sites, particular home pages of new friends that I will be added.<\/p>\n<p>My week has flown by, (has the last two months!) work has been hectic, but I am always on top of tasks. The drive to work continues to be a strain, as I have to take the longer, more time consuming motorway route. I always hit traffic, but the radio keeps me company. I have another long journey ahead of me tomorrow. Around 180 miles there, so I should be in Wrexham by about 10pm tomorrow night, if I leave Wycombe by 7pm.<\/p>\n<p>KaZaa have finally made a breakthrough with their Peer-to-Peer software sharing program. In version two, we can finally down MP3s of proven quality. I now have the major task of back tracking through my mp3 collection and upgrading all the 128kbit files to 160 (or better!) files. Finally, I now have the power, I did in 1999, with \nNapster. Back then, I was still using a lame 56kbps connection. Now, I&#8217;m in control&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n<p>Personally I have been feeling great, absolutely great. From hearing the students of Fame Academy&#8217;s rehashing of the classic tune, Everybody Wants To Rule The World. I obtained an extended version and have been playing it constantly in the car. Why would I want to rule the world, when I feel that I have so much more of the world to enjoy? Your guess is always as good as mine! There is a line towards the end of the song, which rings so true&#8230; particularly at this moment in time:<\/p>\n<em><p>&#8220;All for FREEDOM and for PLEASURE&#8230; Nothing ever lasts FOREVER&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p><\/em>\n\n<p>Powerful words which need to be given time they deserve. It is with these words, I leave you my friends&#8230;enjoy your weekend and make sure you too believe&#8230; believe in the future! Believe in what the future may bring&#8230; :o) Take care. <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well I know this is unusual. For me to be updating the site during the weekday.
