A group of us from the office went out for lunch yesterday to Thomson’s Pub on Morrison Street. It’s a traditional Edinburgh bar with a very nice pint, but it’s also famous for one other thing—pies! People come from miles around, and indeed, we travelled from the other side of Edinburgh to get there, [...]

The writing and posting of this blog entry will be my only foray to my PC today. I need to get away from the screen for a few hours after a week doing nothing else but watching cursors and thinking technology. One needs to step away.
I forwent my usual Saturday morning gander [...]

Not a particularly long blog post today as yesterday was swamped. As Monday’s in the day job go, it was a mad one, though I was expecting it as the rota has been packed out for a few days now. Typical it would have to be my week on the “day shift” when it [...]

I actually forgot to blog on Saturday morning. When I got up, I got tore into my “to-do” list for the day and stayed in the zone all day, and I just forgot to do it. When I first remembered it was mid-afternoon and I was lost in other work so I just left [...]

I hope you all enjoyed yesterday’s interview with Christina Katz, and probably the break from my insane ramblings. She’s an interesting writer and her book looks like a great investment if you’re a writer and have books out or coming out. I’m certainly ordering my copy!
I seem to have a lot of news for [...]

I nearly never went to the ‘Ten at Ten’ event at the Edinburgh Book Festival yesterday morning, but I’m glad I did. When I got up around 7am I was tired and just wanted to sleep. But I also didn’t want to waste the day. So I forced myself into gear and off [...]

Woke up yesterday with a bit of a cold; stuffed head and nose, sneezing, heavy eyes—you know they type of thing. Maybe I’m working too hard. Or more likely it was because I went to bed topless and woke up during the night shivering after the gales had started.
I’ve been going through a heavy [...]

I had to skip yesterday’s blog post purely because of work pressures—day job and external. None of it you would have found interesting and I was too busy/tired to write the damn thing up anyway.
It’s good to be busy, though, and it’s the kind of work I am really enjoying—day job and external. No [...]

Many thanks to Diane Parkin for having me over at her blog yesterday. If you missed it, head on over for what was an in-depth look at the development of STELLA.

Things were somewhat more relaxed in the office yesterday. I’m still spinning plates but made good progress with some work. I took a slightly extended lunch (for [...]
