The Bloody Credit Crunch
I was on Radio 4 today. For real, I was! listen to it by downloading this and putting it in itunes
I was making a point about the Credit Crunch. And although only a tiny portion of my point can be relayed on the BBC worldwide (woohoo!), I can at least have a rant here on [...]
Thoughts turn to skiing
It’s nearly October and the weather in Chamonix is turning wintry. There’s still a long way to go before the first snows come in late November or early December, but it’s in the post. I’m probably watching too much ski porn (Warren Miller films & Helly Hanson’s Happy Happy mostly), but I can feel the [...]
The conclusion of a great road trip
I definitely need to expand on the coldplay gig. I’d gone to Prague to see Sarah for a few days, really. She was there with the coldplay tour for 3 days. 2 days off and then the show on the Monday. I wasn’t as interested in coldplay as I was in seeing Sarah, so I [...]
Coldplay Viva La Vida Tour, Prague
Brilliant! Flickr have just added the ability to embed picture slideshows on external websites. Like this one:
Perhaps I’ll do a part 2 of this post tomorrow to explain how cool the gig was. Maybe the photos will tell enough of the story?
Praha, Czech Republic
I’ve been enjoying taking a lot of photos here in Prague. It’s such a photogenic place that every view is a winner. I’ve been trying out the iPhone’s camera when I haven’t got my big camera with me, and it’s not so bad. It’s different to use because there are no editing facilities between the [...]
Road tripping to Prague
As the summer season in Chamonix draws quickly to a close and the weather turns cold and autumnal, it’s time to get out of town for a bit. I’m driving to Prague to meet Sarah who is there on tour with Coldplay.
Tia (who is recovering well from her broken pelvis) is safely set up at [...]
New website for All Mountain Performance
When I moved to the valley a few years ago I made a decision not to get involved in building websites for local businesses. There are a lot of businesses here, and a lot of entrepreneurial people running them. But there’s very little money. To live here and earn a living is hard and everyone [...]
The time of my Chamonix office is coming to an end. I’ve rented this place from my landlord Mr Chevallier for just over 2 years and I’ve loved being here. The rent has been reasonable, the central Chamonix location is brilliant, the view out on the Aiguille Du Midi & the little garden out the [...]
Credit Crunch.
Glad I left London.
Shaving Fred
So we did it. Shaved Fred I mean. For cancer research. I think we even did it with a fair bit of style. Judge for yourself, watch the video here:
