Everything looks so clean and white outside so I don’t want to complain about the weather, but I think I may moan a bit about the timing of it. It is only about 8 or 10 centimetres here at the moment. Hardly Arctic conditions, though it has made our street impossible again. This time our […]

Decorating the cats
December 22nd, 2009 · Comments Off on Decorating the cats · Life
Getting the car moving again coincided with Jayne getting paid, so today saw one or two rash purchases in town while I was working, leading to an entertaining few minutes at home this evening as we tried to get Scar and Rojo to model their new scarf and santa hat.

Steepest road in Crawley?
December 19th, 2009 · Comments Off on Steepest road in Crawley? · Life
A chap in Hobbs Road is in the local paper complaining about the lack of a gritting bin in his road. Having had my own simlar experiences discussin grit bins with West Sussex council I have a lot of sympathy for him, but where I have to disagree is when he says it is the […]
Snap away

Lets hope that this means that stupid things like this won’t be happening in the future- but just to make sure you could always go to Trafalgar Square on January 23rd for what could be one of the most photographed events of the year and an ideal opportunity to show off all those camera-related xmas […]
Prescott-tastic

This evening I took Chrystal into Crawley town centre for a Labour Party fund-raising dinner. I was supposed to be taking Jayne, but her hip was playing up so Chrystal was a last-minute substitute. The guest of honour was John Prescott. He was full of praise for Laura Moffatt and Gordon Brown. Not quite so […]

Fade resistant
November 28th, 2009 · Comments Off on Fade resistant · Life
Saw this advert on Flickr and was immediately drawn to the bit about the posters being fade resistant for 200 years. I know that you can do all sorts of things with science that are well beyond my understanding so maybe you can prove that somethng will last 200 years but on the other hand…Â […]
Have I got Moos for you
November 13th, 2009 · Comments Off on Have I got Moos for you · Life
My new Moo cards arrived the other day. On a whim I decided to order some conventional-sized business cards instead of the helf-height Moo cards I had before. Feeling in a modern frame of mind I did not include any address or landline – just mobile number, email address and URLs for this blog and […]
The Silver Triffid of Horsham
November 1st, 2009 · Comments Off on The Silver Triffid of Horsham · Life
On Saturday morning I took advantage of that short window of opportunity between the sun coming up and the rain coming down to take a few photos in and around the park. I particularly wanted to see the new sculpture outside the Pavilions: Light Tree by Steve Geliot. It looks OK to me, although it […]
Labour conference – day five
October 2nd, 2009 · 3 Comments · Politics
The last day of conference is a funny one. It is only a half-day for a start. I imagine the original reason for that is so that delegates and others can stand a chance of getting home afterwards if they live at the other end of the country. That does still apply, of course, for […]

Labour conference – day four
September 30th, 2009 · Comments Off on Labour conference – day four · Politics
Following Tuesday’s over-long day, when I was in Brighton from 0800 to 2300 I took it a bit easier today and caught a later train. Actually a bit later than intended: Jayne was a bit unwell and waiting for the doctor to call back so no lift to the station – I had to walk […]
