  • Yanks for the memories.

    Why is it always that when you do have some free time it is raining? Oh well, driving in the dark in the rain was interesting, the roads don’t drain, the light glares and you cant see any road markings – sucky. I fly back today, 8.30pm flight so don’t need to be at JFK…

  • Upcoming…

    I looked at my calendar today… yikes. Off to New York this Saturday to do some server work, fly back arriving Friday early morning. New guy starts at OW on the Monday, but my Linux Admin is away then for two weeks. Off to Rotterdam on Friday 18th for a work thing. Then December 5th…

  • Mmm, beeeeeer

    Bath beer festival last night (and again tonight for you alcoholics). Much good beer to sample and some fine company with Andy, Andy, Andy, Dan, Mark, Paul and John-Michael. I think the Valhalla stout was my favourite all round, but its was close. Thankfully no hangover this morning, its not that a hangover itself would…

  • Week to Wednesday

    Due to small children being ill I have been in Bath much of this week, which makes a change for me. Wandered along to the pub on Tuesday with Zoot, Mushroom and Icklemichael and had a beer for the first time in ages – good job too, its the Bath beer festival all this coming…

  • 8 women to many

    You know life just can’t get any better when your GF say “Yes, a Pot Noodle would be great, lets do that.” Gets me out of cooking! I have, however, been sent home this evening as there are about 9 women and 11 children at her’s, most likely drunk and bitching about men – I…

  • Rumours of my demise are exaggerated…

    I never was very good at updating anything, yet alone my journal, sorry. Lately though you could have been forgiven for thinking I died, but no(!) I am alive and well, thank you for your concern 😉 Errr, since last time I have been to Paris to have a nose about and to see Lance…

  • Thats a wrap

    Ah, my last morning in LA. I fly back this afternoon. Off to see a client this morning and to meet their whole bloomin’ IT team (inc some chap from the UK… hmm), so should be fun. I have done no shopping ‘cos there isn’t any in downtown LA, it really is dead around here.…

  • Yummy

    Chex mix (bold party in this case) is the new crack. That is all.

  • So this is LA…

    If all I wanted to do was have a little fun before I died then apparently I am in the right city. The 11 hour flight wasn’t that bad, though I don’t see the point of online seat pre-booking if they just shuffle you around when you get to the airport anyway. Mind you, I…
