Quarterly report :D
Thursday, 19 June 2008

I really must update this more often, Here is what's been happening...

* Britta got a full time contract at London Zoo for 6 months and is now a Zoo Keeper proper!

* We moved house and now live in Manor House. It's the first time I've really lived anywhere other than West London but I am liking it so far.

* Warblefly are getting a head of steam up for the summer. We have just done a couple of gigs and have a few more lined up over the next couple of months including the Wickerman Festival, Wallingford Bunkfest, Broadstairs Folk Week, The Hairth @ Knockengorroch and a few other goodies.

* I bought a couple of cool new cymbals for the drum kit. A 20" A Zildjian ping ride and an 18" Zildjian custom crash. They make a good sound.

* I had an operation on my neck today to chop out a cyst thingy that had been there for ages but they reckoned should come out...

* Went to a Gong gig on Sunday night and Britta and I caught up with Daevid afterwards. What a great gig! It was the first time I'd seen Steve Hillage playing too!

* I have a whole stack of photos to put up at some point.

* I'm sure there's more stuff that's happened..?

Happy 2008
Friday, 18 January 2008

Hello everyone. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year. I made a surprise visit to Mum and Dad in Balmy Palmy for Christmas and was just about over the jet lag when I had to fly all the way back to London again. Meanwhile, Britta had a lovely Christmas with her family in St Albans and no jet lag :)

I have been busy uploading Warblefly albums to Last.FM and you can see the results here...

Chicago Hosting Con
Friday, 27 July 2007
I am in Chicago! The Wndy City. Actually, there was a very loud thunderstorm last night. I have been dutifully taking a few photos and these are in the New Gallery. I have brought my old Voigtlander with me so it might be a while before those photos show up knowing me. I have so far been on a sailing boat on Lake Michigan, eaten a lot of food (Americans eat too much) and caught lots of taxis. I am here with chaps from work as we have been to a hosting convention. Fly back to London tomorrow night. Going to see the Blue Man Group tonight. Busy Busy!
 
I am off to Glastonbury!
Wednesday, 20 June 2007
Hello everyone! I am going to Glastonbury Festival. Expect some photos eventually. Mostly of mud... :(
 
New Gallery really works this time
Thursday, 07 June 2007

Hello everyone. Click on the "New Gallery" link above and you can see that I have a proper gallery again. I am working hard to get some photos up there but  you can see some wedding photos in the 2007 album.

More soon... 

 

 

 
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Saturday, 30 December 2006
... to everyone!
It has been a long time since I updated the site. I have put up a few new pictures and even tried to get a better gallery installed with limited success...

New Gallery

But so far it only has pictures from when I was in Scotland in September. Better than nothing though.

In other news, it has been a quiet Christmas period and I am now nearly 20 stone (eek!) so I think I have to start doing something about that. I would like to start cycling to work again so maybe that will help. Britta and I are going to have an alcohol free January (or at least try to) and generally detox. Watch this space!
 
Britta is a Zookeeper!
Wednesday, 30 August 2006
Britta has started volunteering at the Invertebrate/BUGS House at London Zoo!!

Catch Up With The B.U.G.S

Every other Saturday, she's up at the crack of dawn and off down the zoo to look after the insects. Luckily, insect poo isn't very heavy :)
 
Latest News and stuff
Sunday, 06 August 2006
I have been very busy with Summer and work and all that. Had a couple ofweekend Warblefly rehearsals, one at Pete's place in Norfolk and another last weekend in Falmouth near Dave H's place. The drive to Cornwall was a bit of a mission as EVERYONE wanted to be in Cornwall it seemed and there was roadworks etc.. Which reminds me, I now have another car! A Citreon Xantia 1.6. Cost a whole 500 pounds. Bought it from Pete my old colleague who decided to move to the USA. What else has been going on?
The Great British Beer Festival has just finished in Earl's Court. Lots of yummy things to eat and drink although there was very little variety left when we went back on Saturday. Looking forward to the one in St Alban's.
Went to Rebecca Currier's wedding on Monday 31st and that was really good! Caught up with a load of people I hadn't seen for ages. Everyone looked very well and happy.
DJed at Jen's birthday at the Chelsea Meze the other night and that was fun. I haven't played for ages. Ian and I needto get together and make some more Mix CDs. I'm getting bored with the old ones :)
Well, there must be other things going on but I can't think what they might be...
