My technology post reminded me of my journey back from the UK a couple of weeks ago, and the text above pretty much details what the audio version of this memory would be like.
I travelled to the [...]
Photo by caruba…or 3, depending on when you are celebrating Christmas in your country/region. Days that is, and frankly it is all speeding up here in Frankfurt. Little things happen, or you go to certain events and you suddenly realise…It’s Christmas.
The Christmas market and annual Feuerzangenbowle consumption is a pretty good clue…along with attending (the [...]
Photo by pochacco20I realise that for the last week or so I have managed to get back roughly to my normal blogging frequency…unfortunately, this is likely to be a little more stuttered…for a little while at least.
I started my new job on Monday and, whilst it is not the worlds most taxing position I have [...]
Photo by Rachel YoungI have always worked in IT…well, except for that couple of months in a car body repair shop straight out of school…..but even then I ended up sorting their computer out. The thing about working in any kind of service environment, but I think especially IT, is that you have to really [...]

…tis true. Years ago, I was working for a software house in Cheltenham. During this time the company were undergoing some major changes, including shutting down an office in Surrey and moving operations to Cheltenham. This meant getting 2 new buildings and setting them up from scratch. During this time we had mucho fun [...]
So..it is just past lunch on my first day at work in the new year, and I am already glad that I don’t have much hair. It would most definitely be torn out already.
Seriously, how hard is it to remember a single frickin’ password for just over a week? Also, if you do forget it…try [...]
So…after a few days of excruciating pain and finally moving the pain to an amber alert I am able to type a little. Fortunately, for a man bereft of interesting things to blog about, there was an interesting diversion today where I work.
A well dressed businessman, complete with briefcase tried to gain access to the [...]
