A favour to ask….
I’ve got a favour I’d like to ask you. I’m trying to start a forum section for the Chamonix Valley website I’ve been talking about in this blog. The favour is this. If you have 5 mins (lets say you’re in the office & a bit bored for instance, waiting until it’s time to slope [...]
Brilliant, Free photo software for your PC.
When I got my mac I started to use iPhoto, which is one of the many good bits of free software you get when you buy a mac. I soon realised that I didn’t have anything on my PC (where all my photos actually are) that did the job. Every time I go round to [...]
My new flickr blog
I always wondered what the little buttons that say ‘Blog this’ above a flickr picture were for. I found out over the weekend. You can post cool images that you like straight to your own blogs on another website. So I set it up, and here it is: http://www.citizenbloggers.com/flickr/ ; a blog which is simply [...]
Being in my thirties
So I’ve been in my thirties for a year now, and I’ve got to admit that I really like it. I feel like I know what I’m doing now, where I’m going and how I’ll get there. This year I’ve kept quiet about my birthday and after the big deal of turning 30 last year [...]
Monte Bianco
So I’m lounging in the king-size bed in our Courmayeur hotel room, twonking about on the internet changing my flights to the UK to The end of November, and listening to Radio 4 on the macbook, all hooked up to the hotel’s wireless network.
Isn’t technology brilliant!
This is our view from our room. It’s lower section [...]
Swan about? Or get me head down?
I’ve got a sneezy jet flight booked for next week to go to England. The plan was to go to the ski show at Olympia on Wednesday, then visit some friends in Bristol on Thursday night and my mate in Brighton on Friday, flying back Saturday.
But the events of the last week have demanded a [...]
Shitty week
Yeh, well. Shitty week work-wise this week. On the other hand, some lovely stuff going on. I went to the Jura the other night to visit my friend Bryony and her boys. It’s cool to be somewhere where it’s simply October rather than interseason. Life goes on. It’s nice spending time with kids when you’ve [...]
Happy Birthday Listings Lab
The Company Annual return was for Listings Lab Ltd was submitted by my company secretary to Companies House today. That means the company has been registered as trading for over a year, with the official records and bank accounts to back that claim up. Of course the tax return is another matter, but I’ve got [...]
Problems, solutions and not shooting the puppy
So the Chamonix collective is over. It was a lovely idea, and really fun to get things set up here in Chamonix with a group of people instead of all on me todd, but that kind of nice sounding business model where everyone pitches in and shares the profit is never really going to work. [...]
Alternative dating scenes
A few years ago in London I was messing around with internet dating. It was really good fun and I met loads of nice girls. Trouble is, they were a bit too nice for me. I was looking for something a little more exciting. A little more alternative. My friend in New York was telling [...]
