Packed off surplus telephone to successful bidder. Set about achieving targets in a cynical 'proof of concept' manner. Did well, but feel that I've proved its not sustainable. Later, wandered in industrial East Bristol. Set out across Windmill Hill before cresting Totterdown and descending into St.Phillips via a walk alongside the Avon. Brief picnic beside the A4, watching a procession of vehicles which were somehow part of a Commonwealth Games Baton Passing Relay (sponsored by a large chocolate manufacturer). Turned back townwards via the New Cut and the Cattle Market. Hardly picturesque in many respects, but in such fine weather it was hard not to find parts of the walk rather splendid. Finished the evening lounging about on College Green. First bad hayfever day of the year - frustrating. Regretting patch to gnome-about
- didn't expect holy war. Brief chat to Gman restores some faith in the idea.
I've had a home on the web for more years than I care to remember, and a few kind souls persuade me it's worth persisting with keeping it updated. This current incarnation of the site is centred around the blog posts which began back in 1999 as 'the daylog' and continued through my travels and tribulations during the following years.
I don't get out and about nearly as much these days, but I do try to record significant events and trips for posterity. You may also have arrived here by following the trail to my former music blog Songs Heard On Fast Trains. That content is preserved here too.
