OK, so who wants to hear what I did on my first day here ? After arriving – absolutely KNACKERED – and posting on my web log yesterday, I embarked upon my chosen Mission For The Day. When I was speaking to my travelled and learned colleague Winnie earlier in the week, he said that…

How about that eh ? After 5 years of false starts and mishaps, I've finally gotten here ! London, here we… errm… are. The departure stuff was fairly straightforward – uncustomarily so, for me. I was really stoked to have such a large contingent of farewellers at the airport – a nice surprise. And of…

4:49am, Saturday May 1st. I leave for London in about 6 hours, or something. Luckily, I've just finished packing. Jeez, what a pain in the crevice that exercise was. As today was such a full-on stressful day, I found great happiness in the fact that I'd had a chance to catch up and relax with…

This also explains the slightly abnormal number of backslashes in some of the paragraphs. I…

Oooooooooooooh boy, what a weekend that turned out to be ! There's a good chance that anyone reading this will already know this, but for the sake of accurate historical documentation, etc. – this weekend just gone was my farewell party. And by that, I do mean the entire weekend. My logic at the time…

I've had 3 emails this morning about this particular topic, and I feel I should clear the matter up.

Now by no means is this an offical statement based on survey or statistics, nor should it be taken as authoratative, but I've got to say – based on the number of people I've talked to about this, I find it quite widely accepted that our city's newspaper (and we've only really got one) is…
