It’s official…I’m getting old. Here’s the evidence: Exhibit A: Gardening is a major preoccupation. Had you not noticed? Yes, my thoughts are consumed with when I’ll next be able to mow the lawn, how to keep weeds at bay, when to harvest the potatoes, when to feed, what the best way is to kill slugs, […]
You may have gathered that I’m a technical person and I like things compact, clever, functional. I’m therefore willing to pay large amounts of money for small, clever little gadgets, like a decent mobile phone, or an electronic organiser. Yes, I spend hundreds on little devices that fit in the palm of my hand. So […]
Another, fairly dull, cycling-related post I’m afraid. More on the garden, slugs, harvesting, music and other stuff to come when I have some time.

A friend of mine is engaged in a little, private “Beta” website that I’m contributing to. It’s kinda Christian-themed news and random stuff. I’ve spent some time tonight on a post which I hope he doesn’t mind me cross-posting here. —– You may, like me, have noticed the latest big thing on the Internet…a new […]
Fuzzy went in for repairs yesterday, mostly because he needed it sooner rather than later, but also because I was driving to work anyway so that I could safely give blood at lunchtime and not have to ride home. But there’s lots of online cycling developments this week. Swindon Cycle Challenge One it the Swindon […]
