I've had to give up that Distance Learning course as I was having trouble seeing the teacher.

Twitter Overrun

I’m suddenly being followed by loads of new people on Twitter. I can think of two possible explanations for this:

  1. The world has suddenly woken up to the genius of my insightful and expressive Tweets (in spite of the fact I’ve tweeted nothing for over a fortnight).
  2. This some cunning new internet scan or scamola.

Last Chapter

I’m now onto the last chapter of the course notes. It is a nice feeling doing these things for the last time.

Scarborough Sea Battles

We went off today for a day trip to Scarborough. They say that “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” and I’m starting from a fairly dull base, and so we went off for some fun and games. Took the big camera.

Sea Battle

They have this thing where they re-enact naval battles in a boating lake. No, really. Number one daughter didn’t believe me either, until I took her along. Great fun.

White Bread Black Beer

One of the problems that sitting at a computer all day brings is the way that I seem to end up buying stuff. Like beds. Today it was just music though. I got a copy of Scritti Politti’s “White Bread Black Beer”. This chap has been around a long time (he made some great stuff in the eighties and early nineties) and he still knows how to put together some great tunes.
