Second Day

Thursday, June 30th, 2005

Well after a good meal and few drinks last night nearly everyone ended up in pubs and clubs. Being one of the sensible ones I dropped out around 1.30am and headed back to the hotel leaving a number of others wandering around in Denmark looking very sorry for themselves. Next day was filled with breaks [...]

Foreign country

Wednesday, June 29th, 2005

So I made it to Denmark yesterday. First impressions of flying? That was ok not worrying at all very relaxed. BUT the airports.. Man I was lost in Gatwick for like an hour trying to find out what to do, and by the looks of other people they were having the same problems. Then managed [...]

35 today

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

Today I reach the tally of 35 in years. Looking back at all my time I can honestly say that when I was on the Dole and had no money at all I was certainly much happier than I am today. Although I didn’t have anything I managed to have fun with whatever was around, [...]

Window into my soul

Monday, June 27th, 2005

You know I started this as a bit of a laugh, something for people to read and say “That’s Shane that is” but now I’m not so sure. Some of the feelings I have voiced here are pretty deep and show another side of me people may be shocked to discover. I have removed a [...]

Lazy Sundays

Sunday, June 26th, 2005

When I was a Kid I used to hate Sundays and the fact that you had nothing to do. I used to complain I was bored, stomp around and generally make my mums life hell, just like all kids did. Then I got older and I started to go out, make friends and spend time [...]

BBQ Chicken

More books to feed my frenzy.

Friday, June 24th, 2005

I have just googled up Trudi Canavan (The Black Magician Trilogy) and found out she is set to release another trilogy this year (in November no less). AND that she will start would on a prequel to the Black Magician trilogy after that. GOD I can’t wait. Froo you have a lot to answer for! [...]

Crashing to earth.

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

Well looks like the Cosmos 1 didn’t make it into orbit after all. Still a very impressive thing to have done and I hope they truly manage it sometime very soon. Today I was up bright an early at 4am for a trip to Sunny Warrington for my dreaded appraisal. With the meeting due to [...]

Fly me to the moon..

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005

You know I like science. ..Not because I love gadgets, well ok that too, but because they’re always attempting things that seem bonkers. Like the Cosmos 1 the Solar sailed experiment launched from a Russian Nuclear Sub yesterday. I mean the fact that it was launched from a Russian sub is bloody great news in [...]

Chased people and information around until I managed to put together a plan of attack and sent in the documents. Spoke to the peope in the know and now expect to install the kit early next week. Since then I [...]
