Robert: Part three

Following on from my last few posts I’m trying to be a little more pro-active.
If you want to participate in the hunt for my friend Robert I have made a badge that you could host to help spread the word. I’ll be reporting regularly here to give you any news I receive.
Here is the badge:

Robert: Part two

I lived in Edinburgh from 1968 to 1978 and had some very good friends. Robert Irvine (Whose photo I posted yesterday), John Sharp, who later came to Switzerland and was my best man at my wedding and James whose surname I have forgotten although it might be Cameron. We used to hang out together frequently, [...]

Oh yes, way to go

I don’t know if you noticed but I have a new search widget since a few days ago. This is provided by Lijit and I love them already. Go and look to see what they provide but in the meantime I just wanted to say they have a great idea. I wanted to change some [...]

Pas bien

I joined Vimeo a week or so ago and it is super friendly. Watching the videos of others made me envious so I thought that it would be nice to at least try. So I did. Here it is!

Some newness

Isn’t it a little paradoxical that my last post was about an absent friend when I was being a little absent myself?
It’s a little cyclical with me. I’ve been blogging for over three years and it’s become an online presence that I won’t give up. I’ve never really found my own style though and have [...]

Professionally the move means me splitting my time between two offices and some overtime to compensate. All my professional activities are in flux and I will have to adhere to new objectives.
I have been asked to step up as National IT Director of an Association that I am [...]

Something’s not right

My wife and I learnt today that a very good friend’s husband is not getting any better. Since we know her, her husband has been ill and that’s over ten years now. In addition to cancer and renal failure she learnt recently that he has been diagnosed as having Alzheimers disease. That’s a lot of [...]

Eating out

My wife and I went to a restaurant with friends this evening called the e-wok at a Shopping Mall called la Praille.
I’m afraid it wasn’t as good as it usually is, maybe a case of bad luck, and was much too greasy for me.
I took a photo of my good friend Louis and told him [...]

Harvesting, Weeding, Pruning and nurturing

I’ve not had a lot of commenting activity lately. I only have myself to blame of course becasue I wasn’t really very active last year and when you lose momentum it affects the whole blog.
So when I was checking my logs this morning (and I promise to do this more regularly) I noticed two comments [...]
