Minehead – Seaside Relaxing in the UK

I still have quite a few posts from UK, so back to normal service again for a while, until I decide to whinge about the stupid SE K750i I bought in January that now doesn’t work because the screen is totally white…and the LCD warranty is only for 1 MONTH, yes I just found out […]

Well yes, finally I’m back! Dubai was…hot and sandy and it makes me fat as you can order everything under […]

Urgh Tired

I’ve been camping in a field for two days, then rushed down to the coast to take in some sea air, and eat some dead deer, which was fantastic. The field was nice, booze was good, loads of food and loads of shooting. Muddy field, crazy people, guns, food, music & alchohol = yeah! Pictures […]

Food, Trains & a Wet Trip to London

Ah the great English weather is back…I’m stuck in the house again. Had a light dinner after so much heavy eating, some parma ham draped over a melon, some pork pie and carrot/cucumber with houmous and taramasalata.

A Trip to Worcester City Center & The Cathedral

You can’t beat starting the day with a nice egg and bacon sandwich with freshly made homestyle wholemeal bread and a dribble of HP Sauce. The weather wasn’t great in the morning so I just hung around at home, had some light lunch and headed into the city. Planning to check out the cathedral and […]

I never thought I’d say I miss…

Streamyx, but actually I do! Current equipment – Pentium II 333mhz, Windows 98 and a crappy dial-up connection. So yeah I did manage to get on the plane the second time, I didn’t miss it again, flight was smooth, slightly earlier than planned they gained some time. Watched a Spike Lee movie on the plane […]

A Trip to Dubai – Day 2

So I had a free day, what to do.. I asked around and it seems there isn’t many attractions in Dubai, the Burg Al Arab area…Emirates Mall and its snow thing, some other shopping centres and that’s about it. I wanted to find a street market or Bazaar, so I got recommended Deira, about the […]
