Closed. Shut. Vamoosed. Gone.

I have moved and left my friend here to guard my old content. (He loves treats though so don't be fooled by the snarl)

My blog is now hosted on my main site at http://photoportunity.com, please update your RSS reader.

All the very best, Steve

World pyjama market falls after launch of Apple Facetime for The Mac

Industry Spokesperson
The market for stuff you wear to bed (The Lingerie 500) fell to new lows today after the launch of Apple Facetime for The Mac (http://www.apple.com/mac/facetime).

A spokesperson for the industry claimed that 80% of all pyjama purchases are made by or for homeworkers - who will now need to wear 'something sensible' to appear in front of the camera.

A government source claimed that there was no case for further quantitive easing as most pyjama trousers had elasticated waists.

Bitton Needs You


Bitton Needs You, originally uploaded by Photoportunity.
I took on the lead in fundraising effort, or at least the start of it, for our clubhouse (more at http://sites.google.com/site/rebuildtherec) some 2 months ago after much delay and frustration.

For many years the building has been slowly decaying and something needs to be done for the sake of our community and for the people who use The Rec on a weekly basis.

We're now on our second attempt to find funding for a feasibility study and, once that's through, the big task starts: public consultation, planning applications and of course the drive to find the capital funding for the new build.

Wish me luck and if you have time , sign up at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rebuild-The-Rec/358962930229 and leave us a comment.

Interesting. What does it mean to be British?

Malmaison Reading

The noise that stopped me from sleeping. Changed rooms but in the end
I had to sleep (sleep?) with a pillow over my head

Light Sabre Flashmob Cabot Circus 1 pm 0682

I went to Cabot Circus today to pick up a valentine's card for Karen. As we reached the main concourse we noticed how many had gathered and at 1 pm a whistle blew and... well, all hell broke loose.

I don't do wildlife

... but after Karen pointed out all the birds feasting on our crab apple tree, I had a go.
