  • The Bright Light

    The elders used to speak of it.  A strange bright light in the sky.  It brought warmth and joy to the people.  But the light has not been seen for so long now that it’s existence has been relegated to myth and heresay. It was said that the sky turned blue.  That people had to […]

  • Cycling Corollorys

    My cycling activities seem to be governed by sods law.  Here is a list of how I think the rule applies to cycling. The speed a cyclist attains is inversely proportional to the effort put in.  In the last couple of days I’ve done three rides.  Monday I flew without even trying.  Tuesday I went […]

  • The Harvest

    We’ve been harvesting for a while now.  We got: a good crop of onions; numerous, but quite small, potatoes; a few handfuls of tomatoes; leeks;  spring onions; peas. Not very much of each, though, as you can see, the potatoes and onions were pretty good. We did have quite a big blight problem, which spread […]

  • You alright?

    Some will know of my occasional anti-Englishness.  Sometimes our over-politeness causes huge complications. My classic example being the “Do you want the last ….?” question, which actually means “I want the last …. ?”.  Why don’t we just say what we mean? This has been bugging me a bit lately with people who use phrases […]

    The Internet (and, indeed, the press in general) has been alive with talk of Google Chrome.  As always, I won’t have much to add to the masses of stuff that’s already been written, but here’s how Chrome has been for me. Hearing about it Heck, it was only yesterday but it seems so long ago! […]

  • Domain Settings

    Quick note for any regular readers (I think there might be two of you!), I’ve been playing with some technical jiggery-pokery (DNS sub-domain/CNAME entries to be exact) and have managed to make Blogger look like it’s on my own domain. Woo hoo! So, hopefully, regardless of where it’s hosted (this MAY be under review), my […]

  • Holidays Part 1: A Holiday in Northern Ireland

    Blimey – we’re just about to go on our next hoilday so it’s about time I posted notes on our last! Back at the end of June we went away to Northern Ireland for a week.  I took some notes as we went on my electronic organiser but never got round to fleshing them out. […]

  • A Visit to YOMAC

    Sally has been away this week at a residential camp for young people from all over the country involved in climate change projects. I don’t explain it very well so check out http://www.youmeandtheclimate.org/ for a better explanation. I popped down for the weekend to help out, see what was going on, and, yes, to spend […]
