I am geek adjacent. I lie probably slap bang in the middle of two extremes; the uber-geek/dev coder who knows internet coding and all the web server dark arts like the back of their hand, and the ‘Facebook is the internet’ person who uses the flash on their phone when taking a picture of a landscape in the dark. I...
I’ve recently been looking around for some place that isn’t Instagram, isn’t Flickr, but is a quiet place to share some of (what I consider) my better photos. I am not a photographer but I like capturing moments… So I was delighted when Peter Gombos post I wanted Bear Blog, but for my photos bubbled up into my view....
When I started my current job, the first couple of weeks were similar to most other places. HR induction, reams of information, sources, names, services, all thrown at me in the first few days, you know the drill. They also had set up some introductory meetings with people around the business. Not necessarily anyone...
At last, I am rich!! The Coffee Saga has paid off. Thanks Manuel for the donation who, in his own words, “Donated because your post about donation was nice and also to force you to go edit it since you do have a donation now ” I have edited my post appropriately, of course, I’m all about full disclosure. Now, what...
Life Notes As expected, a more routine week, although I was home alone from Sunday afternoon through to Tuesday evening which meant I got to watch the WWDC Keynote on Monday evening (I skipped Tai Chi as my foot was oddly sore). An intriguing set of new stuff coming, if Siri AI works as well as it did in the ‘live’...
Scotland win a game at the World Cup (and top the group!!). Knicks win the NBA Finals! Sir Lewis Hamilton wins his first GP for Ferrari! Yay all round! Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive. Visit my site for more.
I consider myself a fairly run of the mill music kinda guy. I have heard of most bands, even if it’s only a track or two. I did hospital radio for a few years, covered 60s show, 70s show, and mostly requests which were always wonderfully varied —from Jimmy Shand, to Ce Ce Peniston, via The Rolling Stones— not to...
We only went and won a game at the World Cup! Tense, not the greatest watch but it disnae matter! Had half an eye on the Knicks game too, been a while since they were Champions! My wife is from New York so I guess they are my second team by marriage? (Lakers for life!). […]Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive....
It’s been a long long time. I grew up watching us playing in World Cups, every 4 years we’d snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, like clockwork! I am tempering my hopes, but this squad does feel different, feels like a team, not just the “best 11”. So, yes, I will be getting up […]Thanks for reading and keeping...
This musing was prompted by Robb’s post about pens. I have pondered all of this before but that was a while ago so I wonder where my passion now lies. Passion is wonderful I love people who are passionate about something —as long as it’s a positive passion for a good thing, if you are […]Thanks for reading and...
