Wow. I had my first Ikea experience today. I had to get some things for my room, like a bedside table and a rug (cos I hate walking on polished floorboards barefoot!), and it seemed like it was going to
2004-09-15 : It’s the Muppet Show !
Ok, possibly I'm a bit intolerant but one thing that's really getting to me at the moment is how difficult it is to accomplish relatively simple things in this country. There again maybe it's just me. In any case, the
2004-08-31 : The mystery expression shouted at the top of Jason’s lungs today is… “BOLLOCKS !”
One day there was a lovely little sausage named Jason, who all the people loved and adored. One weekend in August he went away to Windsor and across to Bath, and had a lovely time. When he got home he
2004-07-11 : When I left I was but the learner, now *I* am the MASTER !
OK, that's possibly a bit grandiose a title, but the point I'm trying to make is that I've spent the last couple of days taking Geraint around London – acting as a tour guide, would you believe !? I've only
2004-06-28 : So that was France, eh ?

2004-06-24 : Tell us all about Marseille Uncle Humpy!!

2004-06-23 : Oooh look, another update – that seemed quick, did it not ?
Welcome back. Through the magic of computers it now seems to be a week later even though I only finished my last entry this morning. I'll get on with it, shall I ? On Friday I caught up with young
2004-06-18 : OK, a quick report from Paris…
Gotta make this quick, cos I only have about 15 mins left at this netcafe. Wandered past a shoe shop and glanced at a particular shoe – no sooner had I done this than the guy whisked me inside and
2004-06-15 : J’arrive en France… c’est superb!
Well well, I'm now in France – my first ever non-English speaking country (no, Scotland doesn't count), and my first experience with one of these weirdo European keyboards I've heard so much about… OK, so the rest of my Scottish
2004-05-21 : Buggeration!
I'm really struggling with using Netcafe's for my Net Connectivity needs, and right at the minute that is manifesting itself in the form of my really shite memory not being helpful when I get around to updating my website !
