Snowing Bubbles

· 05 Jan '10 ·
I've just got home after driving home from work in probably the heaviest snow fall I've ever seen. It was very pretty and looked like it was snowing clumps of bubbles, like those that spew out of a bubble machine at a foam party. Sadly, it was super slippy too, so uber concentration was needed. Won't be going anywhere in ...

Let it Snow

· 16 Dec '09 ·
Winter was very late this year, and boy has it come with a vengeance. It's snowing right now. I'll hopefully get a chance to go grab my camera from the car and get some snaps. So much for global warming.

Bring Me Some Cold

· 03 Jul '09 ·
I never thought I'd say this again (after coming back to the UK from working in Madrid), but please please please send us some cooler weather. It's been stinking hot and humid over the last week both during the day and at night and now I'm really really tired. I need some ZZZZZZZZZs.

I Might Be On Google Streetview

· 20 Apr '09 ·
I've just got back from picking up my car from being serviced and I think I may end up on Google Streetview soon. On my way to the garage, I was passed by a black Vauxhall Astra with a rather large camera-like contraption on its root. I'm pretty sure it's the Google Streetview car, so we'll have to wait and ...
