Snowy morning in London

April 6th, 2008 · No Comments

 
There is something special about opening your curtains in the morning and seeing snow. For me, it conjures up childhood memories of snow days: looking out the window excitedly at sheets of white, tuning in to the local radio station in the hopes of hearing my school mentioned on the list of cancellations, imagining the […]

Dan le sac vs scroobius pip’s “thou shalt always kill”. Intelligence, good beat, catchy tune. Reminds me of when I first heard the streets.

Another photo hits the bigtime!

February 27th, 2008 · No Comments

Someone from Flickr wrote to me the other day asking if they could use one of my piccies on their new Flickr/Nokia site. The woman was “designing a new masthead that will showcase some of the gorgeous Nokia photos we have on Flickr”. Naturally, with that kind of ego-stroking, who could say no!
I gave the […]

I spotted this in the work canteen today and I love it. We’ve got lactose-free milk, caffeine-free coffee, alcohol-free beer and now bone-free jelly beans! What a world we live in! Freedom of choice for everyone.

first glimpse of the newly reopened st pancras

November 24th, 2007 · No Comments

With all the hype and press around the reopening of st pancras station, I was prepared to be underwhelmed. However, walking into the hall is very, very impressive. It’s incredibly long, the blue of the girders glows and the whole hall gives a real sense of grandeur. It must be a fantastic first view of […]

Found this one at the office canteen:
Introducing self help salad! At just 1.70 for 12 oz, it’s cheaper than any course, seminar or psychologist’s couch you’re likely to find.

Daft Punk is playing at my house

June 18th, 2007 · No Comments

Actually, they aren’t. And judging by the reception they got at the O2 Wireless Festival this weekend, it’s probably a good thing.
That video gives a small hint of the madness that was their performance, but can’t really cut it. The duo were in a giant triangular spaceship that was the center of their amazing light […]

June 6th, 2007 · No Comments

We had the most amazing full moon this weekend, which was so bright it looked like the sun. I took a couple shots using my new Gorilla pod to capture the moment. This is the view from our balcony:
And another:
Beautiful!

Best food market in London

March 9th, 2007 · No Comments

Although at times, I may complain about London, there really are some spectacular places here. In fact, there are often so many possibilities, it’s usually harder to pick the best one from a bunch of great options.
One of my all-time favorites is Borough Market. According to their website, “Borough Market is London’s […]
