Stag

I had a bit of a Stag on saturday. It involved karting, eating and drinking. So all in all it was pretty successful. I might even have pictures up of it later.

The highlights were the bad driving by me, Martin trying to drive me through the barriers and the lounge girl who refused to take orders before making us write the order down!

New Bike

First day on the bike and all is well. She is a lot noisier than my previous bike and I don't know if that is to be expected.

I think I will get her serviced next week to ease my mind.

Crazy Author

An author in Poland was just convicted of a murder. Nothing strange about that? Well the only reason he was caught was he wrote about an almost identical murder in his book. A book that was published.

In the book he described the perfect murder, poetic licence eh?

Chump!

New bike!

I picked up my new bike tonight and she looks great. It will take a bit of getting used to, she is louder and quicker but all in all she feels good.

I'm looking forward to getting out on the open road to see how she handles.

I'll post pictures tomorrow!

Bike news!

I sold my lovely 125 marauder and bought a 250 Marauder. Nice. Since I passed my bike test I can take a pillion passenger so the extra bit of power and torque will be very useful.

I will be dropping my bike off tonight and collecting the new one on thursday!

Hoorah!

Lazy Politicians

4 members of the cabinet didn't turn up for the first cabinet meeting of the new session because they were on holiday. They have had 10 weeks to go on holidays.

How would Mary Hanafin react if parents did this with children taking holidays in term time?

Double standards and poor public service!!!

The life of a web developer

We live a strange existence, with people not really understanding or valuing what we do.

I came across this letter which puts it beautifully.
