After another weekend of property development it’s back to moving the office – we only have five days to go… Let’s just clear up one thing about the weekend property development stuff, it’s not glamorous like on the telly! I come back home on Sunday night with a hairstyle that looks like a whole jar [...]

No, nothing to do with white vans and everything to do with moving web sites… It’s mid-morning Friday and I’ve moved the easy sites to a server I’ve set up at my house now it’s time for the hard ones. What’s a hard one? It’s one that has a database back-end that stores all the [...]

It’s Thursday and I’ve hit the skip so many times I could be up for my own parking place Selling on Ebay is going well too although I can’t see how some people make any money. For example, I have trade cards and accounts with a range of distributors and I can’t buy a lot [...]

Normally we hear of ‘dumbing down’ as a means of connecting with those whose education leaves something to desired but not in this case. In this case it’s the BBC themselves who appear to have a less than acceptable command of English. I’ve heard numerous reports of the Police being ‘systematically racist’. Now that could [...]

It’s Saturday and I’m off to do some property development for the weekend. I won’t bore you with the details but suffice to say it’s a pretty big job and first priority is to finish the stairs not least so we don’t all break our necks getting up and down The second attempt at constructing [...]

End of week one of planning to close the office and I’ve disposed of a phenomenal amount of ‘junk’. Well, it’s not really junk but no-one wants it unless, of course, it’s pretty much for free. Put a laptop on Ebay for 99p plus £49.99 postage. At the end of the day it’s a laptop [...]
