Creepy Men
June 30, 2004 | 5 Comments
At the risk of sounding judgemental: I’ve been meaning to mention that I was out in town on Saturday night, and stopped in for a pint on my way home at a bar in Soho. (Yes I know - mistake number one right there.) I was minding my own business, leafing through […]

The Trouble With Divas
June 30, 2004 | Comments Off
Just a quick note to spread the word - Mike at Troubled Diva has mailed a whole bunch of people to note that as a consequence of some hosting trouble, he’s moved the site to a new domain - now with added hyphen.
http://www.troubled-diva.com is the new target for your links, blogrolls, etc.
Stop by - it’s […]

Wimbledon Watch
June 28, 2004 | 3 Comments
For the last three years I’ve posted Wimbledon Watches through the Championship, but this year has fallen victim to the timing of work and non-posting. However, I will note the rather impressive performance that Tabby Tim just put in to beat Mark Philippoussis in four sets. After totally overpowering him for the first […]

I’m So Crap
June 28, 2004 | 3 Comments
I know, I know. I have no excuse but the plea of being busy.
There are any number of things I’ve wanted to post here recently, but lack of time or sheer fatigue have defeated me over and over. I’m actually starting to worry a little about how tired I seem to be the […]

Pottered
June 20, 2004 | Comments Off
So as noted I finally saw Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Quite impressed, though one thing that hit me far more about this one than the first two is the amount that had been shed from the book - there seemed to be large chunks of quite critical explanation that was wholly […]

Cycling

Been meaning to mention that Dave and Octavia are doing the London to Brighton bicycle ride tomorrow, with a 6am start. That’s after they’ve cycled from their flat to Clapham Junction of course.
Best of luck folks. Rather you than me.

Networking

Courtesy of Dave and some leftover kit, I now have the fixings of a new network for the flat, which before long will be running wirelessly. I mention this for the entertainment of those who’ve seen my flat and are amused by the idea of a wireless network in such a small space.

On Becoming Middle Aged
June 18, 2004 | 2 Comments
Well, to my own personal dismay and horror, I’m becoming one of those people: Sitting outside the flat right now is a shiny new car with exactly 18 miles on the clock, including the journey home with it this evening.
Yes, I have, finally, taken delivery of my (the horror, the horror) company car.
Look, I’m […]

Saturday Working
June 12, 2004 | 3 Comments
One advantage to spending nine hours in the office on a Saturday is that if it’s a sixth floor riverside office with a balcony and it’s the day of the Tooping Of The Colour, you get a great view of the fly-past. Dave and I allowed ourselves five minutes away from our desks to […]
