8 random things about me. Thing the fifth
This time of year always reminds me of being at home and watching children’s telly IN THE DAYTIME at least until 9.30am when it was considered ok to go round and call for somebody to spend the rest of the day playing in the street. What’s the fact here? That my childhood watching habits were…

8 random things about me. Thing the fourth.
First let’s have two minutes silence for a long-time reader of this blog, Mr Adrain Phelps of Wetknee, Oxon who was unfortunately eaten by a bear while commenting on a post late last night.

Xbites++
Mike Butcher put a note out this week (after, as he said, Helen Keegan told him to stop talking about it, and just do something) inviting folk to Brunch Bites (yet another extension of the Xbites brand) at the Breakfast Club Soho and about 10 of us turned up. It was another pleasant way of…

8 Random Things about Me. Thing the third.
The most obvious landmark viewable from my kitchen window is the Crystal Palace Television Transmitter. It’s about 6 miles SSW of here and does look like a rather weedy Eiffel Tower.

The biggest…

8 random things about me. Thing the second.
OK, here’s another. I’m not a railway buff or a model railway fiend but I have always enjoyed travelling on the railway. No that’s not the fact, it’s a bit of flannelly introduction to divert you from the true geekiness of the fact. The fact is: the final year project I chose for my degree…

8 random things about me. Thing the first
Thank you to Helen, who has tagged me with the latest X Y’s about Z meme. This time it’s 8 random things about me, a subject dear to my heart. I’m not sure about tagging 8 people, so I may leave that to the end, or not do it at all. I propose to write…

dolphin square | london | omg | pimlico
A kind of hush
It’s remarkably quiet in my living room this lunchtime as Grosvenor Road is closed between St George’s Square and Claverton Street because of the collapse of some scaffolding at the south-west corner of Dolphin Square. We’ve had scaffolding all over for a while since the exteriors are being cleaned. It doesn’t look as if this…

Social Media in the NHS
One of my current projects is for the newly re-organised Primary Care Trust in Surrey. They are looking at how they can use social media to engage better with local people through the web, as a complement to their other media activities. I’ve started a blog with a flickr account and video storage on blip.tv…
