Last train home from London, alone, too many beers, why oh why the kebab. To be in bed right now would be amazing.

Thursday, August 18, 2011

Busy day, tired. Now heading into London in torrential rain. It'll be worth it for the rare opportunity to have a few beers with my crew.

The ashes have barely cooled & the liberals are out in force criticising harsh sentencing & tough policing http://bit.ly/n7zd1N I feel sick.

On Friday we did something quite remarkable (for us). Managed to find, decide and book a holiday in Cornwall within a 24 hour period! Yay!

A message from "The Lonely Island" to all the looky-loos who head to riot areas & cause problems for the police http://bit.ly/orfj9p

Interactive riot map - the best one. http://bit.ly/qc0bjL
London riots are now outside of the m25 and into Hertfordshire, I am officially staying awake for the duration.
Alan McCabe, pub manager, is my new hero. Voice of reason. #londonriots
You know when you play sim city, get bored, so burn it all, that is what London must look like from above right now http://t.co/q49wsQz
Oh God no! Not "claire's accessories", please spare us that, London rioters. Someone tell the chavs that they don't sell iPhones!
Can't help but think that the BBC reports telling everyone about the lack of police prescence *may* be making things worse.

This map seems more accurate, based on news reports and not social media bullplop http://bit.ly/omu1Bs #londonriots
Interesting google map of the london rioting, very frightening events http://t.co/ricXMF6 #Londonriots

I saw a display about this in the London Science Museum, quite surprising. 13'000 satellites! http://ping.fm/OQvnF

Holy cow! This is momentous! Running water found on mars!! http://ping.fm/Gv08N
Quote of the day - "Can't wait to see that new Smurf movie!" - Nobody.
Sounds like someone told the government about TOR. I wonder how much money they wasted on this? Who made this decision? http://bit.ly/nlFZPg

Dear Yellow Pages, I wonder have you heard of this great invention "google". It would save me putting your publication directly in recycling
Couple of days off. Taking the boys to see Cars 2 today. My wife is going back to art school to learn the things she missed last time.

Didn't sell my dance mats, probably because everyone was selling them. Made it home slightly sun kissed with £151 in my pocket, FOR RUBBISH!
I am staying at this car boot sale until I sell those bloody dance mats.

Oooh, I see S.Mouse "Smack My Elbow" is available pre-order on iTunes, can't wait for that. S.Mouse is a superstar.

Making up the playlist for son's birthday party, I guess Radiohead, NIN, etc is "not appropriate".

Thursday, July 21, 2011

I've got tomorrow off, which makes today like Friday and tomorrow Saturday and then Sunday would actually be Monday and now... I am confused
Son2 is really looking forward to this one (so am I) http://bit.ly/nGEtvX
Had a nice time at a surprise party for a local teacher who is retiring. Felt sad to see her going. Good to see friends there though.

Son3 is 2 years old today. I am ever so proud of him. He is a delightful little boy who lights up rooms with his smile. Words are not enough

Tuesday, July 19, 2011

When it comes to confrontations my family have had a rubbish week. I really hope things get better because I feel genuinely depressed.

Gosh darn it, back to the drawing board after 5 blooming minutes. Previous statement retracted, google+facebook browser ext has issues.
Found an cool browser extension that ports facebook into the google+ interface so I can have the best (worst?) of both worlds! bit.ly/oEpw81

From calm to volatile, then volcanic! An argument with my neighbour, ultimately cathartic for both sides. Apologies & hand shakes all round.
Skateboarding up at the ex-gokart track at Brooklands. IT'S NOT JUST FOR KIDS!

I must be tired, this made me laugh for about a minute http://imgur.com/8JKXo
Chessington with the boys, bit rainy and cold but I suppose it is mid-July.

Google+ seemed to know a childhood nickname that I had forgotten about, not sure if I should worry about that.
Finally quit Farcebook. Moved across to google+. I appreciate the lack of silly games and the way it it built around security.

I've given up 3 things in the last couple of weeks. Beer, Snacking & Facebook. Let's see how long I last :)
Foo fighters is rocking the home office this afternoon http://blip.fm/~161vfi
Popping over to the local bike shop at lunch. For the 2nd time I'm buying a Specialized bike. I sincerely hope Son1 has more luck than me :S

It seems that some fatigue is not resolved with sleep

Sunday, July 10, 2011

Still feeling exhausted. The 2 nights of no sleep & 14hr days has left me with a sleep debt. Going to bed at 8pm yesterday didn't repay it.

Running a presentation then heading home tonight. Prague is nice. Shame about all the graffiti everywhere.

Herman the German Friendship cake is growing fast. How time flies. Seems like only yesterday he was no bigger than a muffin. Circle of life.

Sunday, July 03, 2011

Been given a German friendship cake called Herman. We are on day 3, he appears to be doing well, still alive. I will keep you posted.
