I just couldn’t wait

I’ve quite a few friends who have bought Nokia N95 8Gb mobile phones these past few weeks. This in addition to a good friend who visited last weekend from the States and had two iPhones led me to make an impulse purchase the day before yesterday.

This is the result. I was putting it through [...]

Intruder alert

I don’t know why, but this blog has been experiencing a fair amount of sp*m lately and I’ve been having to clean it by hand. I don’t know about you, but sp*m in my blog upsets me more than it should as it is an unwanted intrusion.
I tried tweeking the controls of my sp*m killing [...]

Nice trip

Edinburgh was the background and star of a quick break holiday with my wife. We left on Tuesday afternoon and the flight was late due to fog over the UK.

Nothing fancy

Just a quick word before the hotel wifi disappears again!

Ever wondered?

Have you ever wondered what children’s TV was like in the fifties and sixties in the UK?
Here is your dose for today

Looking forward to going home

I’m glad that this evening will be a quiet night at home.
Yesterday was the Opera and the day before we ate out at a really nice restaurant.
After the starter (a Tuna Sashimi), we had a whole Zander (I had to look it up in Wikipedia as although it is hard to find here, it [...]

Effervescence over at Going Solo

As you know I’m a strong supporter of Going Far’s upcoming confĂ©rence, Going Solo in Lausanne. It will be happening just up the road from me in Geneva on the 16th of May. This is why there is a badge in the sidebar.
I learnt that registration was open the other day through Twitter and [...]
