I think of this as an early New Years Resolution!
I will no longer procrastinate, I will no longer procrastinate. Procrastination is a thing of the past as of now. I won’t even wait until tomorrow. I am wasting too much time putting off until tomorrow that which I should be doing now. It is a [...]

Wishing you all the happiest Christmas,
May your dreams come true,
and those of your family and friends too.

I’ve just managed to take a photo of a present which completes my Photo Quest entry for this month. I am particularly pleased with one of the pics but I’ll let you discover it rather than post it here.

Hope you are all having fun approaching Christmas. I have a few more days at work [...]

When I say we, I mean my colleagues and I. Last Thursday (a week ago today) was one of two annual events where we all get together (more than 200 of us) and visit a local enterprise. In the Summer we visited the local football stadium. This time it was Geneva Airport where we had [...]

The full story is that I either walk ten minutes to the number 9 bus stop or take a small bus near where I live (the number 34) and take the number 9 to the center [...]

I never really talked about it but I’m a member of several communities. It’s more of a habit in some cases, let me explain.
First I am a member of my gaming community. I joined at the time I was playing Asheron’s call 1 and I met a lot of the members when I went to [...]

Just so that you know, I took my courage in both hands and went to PHPAdmin and globally turned off all comments on posts prior to the last one. I know it’s a bit defeatist of me but I haven’t been able to install a decent Spam Killer yet and I don’t get many [...]
