Scorchio

We might not be hitting the same sort of temperatures here as other parts of the UK, but so far today in the shade we have hit 33.7ÂșC which is more than hot enough for me!

Finally sorted out

Some may know, and other may not know, that going back to work after having Morgan was not as straight forward as it should have been. Foolishly it seems, I expected to go back to work with the minimum of problems. I was going back full time to the same job I thought and also...

Becoming Chilled

We’ve just spent a busy weekend in Bristol going to Helen and Steve’s wedding (congratulations you two!), going out for a meal for my Dad’s birthday (Happy Birthday!) and generally visiting family etc/ I even managed to fir in a business meeting on Bank Holiday Monday which was good. No, the weekend was particularly windy,...

Bombs in Dahab

I’m sure you have all heard the news about the bombs in Dahab by now… Terrible news of course and terrible timing as far as I am concerned as I was looking forward to my first ever foreign windsurfing holiday to Dahab, leaving on Saturday. It is amazing how your thoughts on world news change...

It is rare that I get to ‘play’ with some of the more creative applications on my computer. I generally use the same old applications day in day out and the usual suspects are: Photoshop PageSpinner Firefox Mail Netfinder Word FileMaker Pro MoneyDance and maybe a few things like iTunes, some OS X Dashboard Widgets...

Mowing myself healthy

I’m sure the my life as a freelance web-designer isn’t the best for my health. I’m getting RSI from long hours using a mouse and keyboard, I’m sure sitting in the same office chair all day isn’t good for my back and no doubt my eyesight isn’t getting any better staring at these computer monitors...

New Shoes

I took Morgan shopping last weekend to get his first pair of proper shoes. He’s had a few pairs second hand but to be honest I’m not sure it’s a good idea to mess with his little feet so off we went to get measured. First of all he feet are huge! I know babies...

One of those days

Actually, it has been one of those weeks really. I’ve been suffering all week with yet another flu type bug so I haven’t managed to get much work done resulting not only in a bit of a back-log but also little income. On top of which I had to buy a new computer (Dual Core...

Useful Relatives

Once again I’ve had to call on my mechanic brother, Brad to help me out. All my education and yet it still seems to be me calling on him for help and advice more often than him calling on me. I always new there would be little call for my training as a carbonate sedimentologist...

Happy Birthday!

It’s hard to believe it but Saturday was Morgan’s First Birthday. I’m not sure where the last year has gone to but it has gone somewhere and Morgan is no longer the little helpless baby we brought home from hospital. He’s a lovely active one year old, just learning to walk and attempting his first...
