This is a crocus that was popping its head up in Oxford way back in reading week. I’m currently using the photo as my desktop picture because it is very nice.

Life’s been very busy recently, getting more and more so. I got an essay in last friday, a lot of fun to write and hopefully the lecturer will like it as well. I spent the weekend at Gillian’s in Bristol which was very nice. I talked a lot with her dad about music and stuff. I have an essay due this friday, and the friday after that, and the friday after that. On top of the essays I have to be applying for things in the summer right now as well.

I don’t think I’ll be able to go to the Go Team concert this wednesday either. I really want to do a good job on this essay for friday and that’s going to mean a lot of work.

Oh friday was Ed’s birthday which was a nice quiet evening but a lot of fun as well…

I’ll try to do more small posts with nice pictures in the coming days.

I’ve been getting loads of comment spam on this blog… most of it is prescription dugs and porn… pretty much the same as e-mail but I thought I’d share this one with you:

Hi there, I just thought I would stop by and say hello. It’s been a hectic but very worthwhile last few days for me. In searching for more computer chair for kids related info on the Internet, I came across your site. I find your content really interesting and I thought to write some words. It’s been a great help in collecting more info on computer chair for kids. Thanks again and have a great day!

On Valentine’s Day I went over to Gillian’s. When I got out of the tube at Canada Water station it started pouring and by the time I got to the docks there was a huge double rainbow over the docks perfectly framing the skyscrapers across the river in Canary Warf. We had a very nice evening together.

On Sunday Chris and I went over to Rory’s and Pete’s and met Jon there, the five of us played the Star Trek Interactive Video Boardgame. It was a blast, I managed to win and stun captain Kavok, so we had a medal ceremony afterwards. But all in all it was more of a team effort then anything.

Right after I post this I’m going to pack my bag and catch a bus up to Oxford to meet up with Chris and Peter. I’m going to stay a night at Peter’s and come back tomorrow feeling well rested and free from the london air.

Oh yeah I also shaved my head yesterday.

I’m attemping to upgrade from WordPress 1.5 to WordPress 2.0.

Friday night I went to a party down the road at Kalieghs, the theme was Pirates and Movie stars. I tried to opt for both. I think I just managed to pull off “well dressed willis”. Earlier in the day we had a nother good band practice and managed to record a whole slew of songs that I’ll try to get up on the web sometime soon.

Saturday Chris, Sarah and I went for a bit of a jaunt in Camden; something I haven’t done in ages. It was great fun, lots of window shopping. I picked up some loose tea from a tea stall, and the lady was very friendly.

Here we are back at home drinking our nice tea.

Other then that I’ve been pretty unproductive this weekend, but I’m feeling inspired. I did some studying the other day in the reading room of the British Museum. That’s a wonderful place to work.
