  • New things and more

    As many of you know, I’ve been working terribly hard with James (and now Jon) on building up the web design side of our company – Interconnect IT and it’s all coming along fine.

    Bye bye to the Heart & Soul, Liverpool

    It’s not the kind of post I normally do, but on the 17th of February the Heart & Soul restaurant had to close. So in her own style Chumki threw a closing-down party and lots of us arrived for a night of music, beer and chaos.

    Hello 2007, Goodbye 2006

    Another year arrives! Woo! Of course, it’s quite predictable, although what happens each year never follows any logic or sense. I share only a little about myself online, but let’s say that 2006 was probably a year which, for me, could have become pivotal for so many reasons. Experiences which I’ll never forget, such as…

  • Merry Christmas

  • Site Issues

    For viewing of videos, this site is at its best with the Firefox web browser. Safari, Konqueror and Epiphany should work well too but as this is a personal site testing is limited. If you want higher resolution wmv versions of the video files you can view them here.

  • Up and coming events

    Nothing now until 2007!  Maybe the odd track day….

  • Hello

    Hi there – well, where do I start? Let’s just say this isn’t intended to be a daily blog or journal of my life. I really really don’t think that what I do is quite that interesting. If I start posting up anything that says “Not done much today, had a drink with Roger and…
