Had a very good Christian Aid Week service at church this morning. Lots of good use of CA’s resources and an interesting sermon based on Luke 7:36-50 – the story of a woman, probably a prostitute, worshipping Jesus by pouring expensive perfume over his feet. The key thing I took away was the need for […]
Techie note really. I’ve had a couple of video editing projects on hold, waiting for a tool that will convert the 3gp files I get from my mobile phone into a format that I can edit. I don’t want to have to pay anything to do this, so the projects have been set aside waiting […]
Is it strange coincidence? Or are Google having a laugh? They launch Google Maps for Mobile in the UK on the day that Tony Blair announces that he will resign. The mocked up “screen shot” on Google’s homepage shows “Downing Street – Press 1 for options”. Ho ho…
Bother my brain… After several very good days of feeling pretty normal I had a very frustrating day on Monday (it involved 2 printers, one powerpoint document, and lots of paper and ink).

Fun today! The little baby blackbirds decided to leave the nest. And so with much tweeting, flapping, and crashing they’re down on the ground in the garden. One of them, I think, flew into the window. I went to look and he was peering up at me! I then tried to take a photo, scared […]
Went out for a ride by myself this afternoon. Managed 21.24 miles in 1:24:31, averaging 15.0 mph overall. A good ride but my knees hurt a bit – probably beacause I’ve not been doing my stretches while I’ve not been cycling to work – must keep that up even when I’m not doing a daily […]
