Heavy snow both ends

Just back from the parents, we had heavy snow there at 8am this morning that settled, probably 3 or 4 inches deep in an hour, very nice to see but a bit terrifying, we thought it was there for the duration and we'd not be able to get back to Folkesto...

Mighty Easter weekender, with The Cure

Hope you've all had as good an extended weekend as I have. As is usual when I've been off for a few days and not written up just went on immediately, I'm starting to forget it all. We're up now, on the last day of our five day break and I have a few ...

Lovely day

The promised snow is here, falling quite heavily here in Folkestone, but turning to cold slushy rain just before it hits the ground.

Mail bomber hits Folkestone

Everyone's picked up on this mail bomber story, not sure why a house in Folkestone has been linked in to this though... The Sun says:On February 3, another device was sent to the home of security boss Michael Wingfield, 53, in Folkestone, Kent.Mr Win...

No snow here

No posts for a few days, I had something to say but wanted to wait until I got an official confirmation and things. Yes I'm back in the land of the permanently employed, just arranged some final details today and I start at Holiday Extras on Monday! ...

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Interesting pop chart changes afoot, now downloads are eligible for the chart even if there is no corresponding CD single available. As this is a relatively new technology, changes are happening all the time I'm sure, but this is quite a meaty one. W...

RE: Ooh, snowing here

I was driving back from Staines today chasing the snow all the way back to Fareham. Had about 15 minutes of snow in Fareham which was nice.

Ooh, snowing here

BUMS!

Motley Crue are supporting Guns'n'Roses in Dublin this Summer, and we're at a wedding that day! G'n'R are playing Download Festival too, can't imagine the 'Crue playing that though. Will there be a normal London date? Will we go? Can't see it...Today...

Working from home

I think this is the fifth attempt to get some decent reception and extra channels at home, with a day spent out of work for someone each time. It's only the second attempt from the current aerial and satelleite services supplier, and I have every con...

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

Forgot to say earlier, there were a few flecks of snow this morning while we were waiting for the train, and I've just heard it's still going. You can just make it out on this grab from my camera:Not too clear there in the failing light but BRILLIAN...

IPOD pants

IPOD pants, Levi's possibly making a pair of fully wired jeans. There are a few things like this around already, but a pair of jeans is more practical around the home / office / high street than a bulky snowboard coat or rucksack. Oh and there's a ne...

PSP update

I updated Clare's PSP yesterday, it's now got a new version of it's little operating system, which you can download direct from Sony. As well as some security issues and the ability to play Windows Media files now, it's got an RSS reader too. I hope ...

RE: Charlotte Church Hoax

I have no clue how it got started with the press, but on ebay I heard it was an April fools joke played on the first seller by a mate, it just snowballed from there.

Waterloo and shitty line more like

My new way of getting to the train (Chancery Lane - Tottenham Court Road - Charing Cross) was pretty quick yesterday but THE STORM on the way to the tube was frightening! AND, this morning, I tried coming via the Waterloo and City line, and it sucked...

Snow!

Snow again today, though it's not brought traffic chaos - I'd like to think the traffic chaos in Stokey has some how summoned the snow. When Manor Road was closed for five months for resurfacing (or whatever), they missed a prime opportunity to paint...

Snow

Snow in Stokey last night, none of it settled though, is there really a super blizzard on the way?
