Son3 (13mths) has been trying out walking for about 2mths now, but yesterday he decided to stand up and walk around unprompted. Very happy!

Funny isn't it, I start talking about buying an Ariel Atom, all of a sudden my wife is planning not one but two extensions on the house :)

I don't really follow celebrity news and pop culture, but can somebody tell me, has Joaquin Phoenix gone crazy? http://imdb.to/9w6hNl

I've been dieting, given up beer, cut down on caffeine & I'm exercising every morning before work. It is killing me.

Today was an important milestone in my parenting life. My son beat me on a console fighting game. He is 5.

I picked the wrong day to give up sugar and caffine.

Babies with ear rings and studs, I don't want to come over all "Daily Mail" but surely it should be criminal?

Saw a few meteors, nothing much. I don't think I have to worry about waking up blind with herds of mutant plants attacking people

Headed to the highest point in the area, newlands corner, hundreds of people here. Never seen so many. So much for being alone.

Damn light pollution, heading to higher ground to watch the Perseid meteor shower

Been up playing with my "big trak" bought for me by my friends for my birthday. Thanks guys.

Looking forward to an evening out with the lads tonight. Must remember to say "when" a little earlier this time.

Heading home, about time because I am missing my wife, I watched "Deep Impact" last night, she always cheers for the meteorite.

Watching "Deep Impact" in my hotel room, missing my wife, she always cheers for the meteorite which is why I love her.

Pancakes bacon & maple syrup for breakfast, a terrible yet amazing concoction that I can't seem to quit since visiting the states years ago

Loud fat person boards the plane late, oblivious to Captain on tannoy, "flight delayed 30 mins due to missed slot". I hate people sometimes

Off to Amsterdam today, not really in the mood but on a positive note it will be nice to have uninterupted sleep - not that I can ever sleep

I was showing son2 eBay & buying him a little gift. Once ordered, he sat patiently by the printer waiting for it to appear. How sweet.

Had a great night "Rocking Out" (God I hate that Colloquialism) with my Risa Solid Ukulele and good friend - Darren. We've still got it.

Monday, here is a song about death. http://blip.fm/~ubd4z

Just realised I can set up the Quantum Physics double slit experiment in my home, working on it now. http://ping.fm/NtTzd

Oh boy. Realised, told OH i would be home by 9:30. V drunk. Oops

Had a great time at the pub with the lads last night, so good in fact that I might be tempted to do it again soon, hintidy hint hint.

Happy Friday everyone (Divine Comedy - Frog Princess) http://blip.fm/~u76ol

Watching Jesus Camp, feeling pretty depressed about what I am seeing. http://ping.fm/3GcIZ

Strange, there was some kind of virtual "falling out" within my left4dead crew, game just fell apart and everyone stormed off (virtually).

Registering a domain name today - really excited about this one.

Had a lovely day cycling the canal paths with Son2. Haircut in town for us both then home for a bounce on the trampoline. Exhausted.

British Gov. forced to shut secret seaside village http://www.theonion.com/articles/budget-cuts-force-british-government-to-shut-down,17763/

Son1 came downstairs wondering who was "holding the Earth". He decided to ask the 8-ball if God exists. "Reply hazy, try again", it replied.

15mins of barefoot running practice this morn. Heel didn't touch down once. Mantained pace 1mph above norm. No knee pain but burned my feet!

I wonder if it is weird that I feel bad turning the light off when the Roomba is working.

Simplyelectronics .net AVOID AT ALL COSTS! The WORST company I have dealt with since Vistaprint and that is saying something.

I am sending this while bouncing on a trampoline

Wife complained the washing machine needed cleaning, so I filled it with bleach, put it on a hot wash. Result foamy kitchen & laughing wife.

Really proud of Son1. His 1st school report was glowing. Apparently he has been teaching his classmates how to use the PC. Another geek! :)

Made it to Brighton which is packed with pissed young people. On a train home now. Tired & hot. Can't wait to see my family & have a shower

Reached Shoreham by sea. Great trip down. Sea air hits you like a bucket of ice water. Having a coffee with Gary now.

Made it to the Partridge Pub, right on the trail. Big place, friendly. Getting cleaned up and having some burgers and beer!

First blood Gary. Down on some gravel, small cuts, nothing serious. At the bridge house.

Made it to Rudgwick, nice pace, enjoyable ride so far, nice smooth pathways. stopped at a shop for refuelling

Cycling Guildford to Brighton with Gary soon. Spent too long preparing, only got 3hrs sleep. Will be missing Alex & Darren who can't make it

Raoul Moat hates police. Police believe public are hiding him, then an unverified story he is threatening public as well! How serendipitous!

Had to lie down on the trampoline & watch the planes fly by this evening in order to switch off a bit. Then made the mistake of calling Mum.

I think Gemma is going to be annoyed with me

I am looking forward to the bike ride with the gang this weekend, I am ignoring the fact it is from Guildford to Brighton - off road.

Awaiting delivery of a big lama

After much fun with my Lama v3, then a disastrous venture into 6ch collective pitch 3D, I'm returning to co-axial - just ordered a Big Lama!

Just started watching The Stone Tape, never seem to make it to the end, this time I will. It is so brilliant.

Watched "Lady in the Water" & "Gangster No. 1", wouldn't really suit being paired in a DVD box set, but both excellent films all the same.
