As mentioned in a previous blog entry, a while ago my G1 fell under the wheels of a lorry on The Old Kent Road. My first reaction was shock at the loss of my faithful Android powered device. My second reaction was annoyance at the realisation that I had only just started a new 18 …

I really should start clearing out the loft room
No I really should but I thought a little blog entry would fire me up. Amy left for the States yesterday morning with Sally and Mia. It has been a little lonely here in the house especially when I dropped Jake off at school.
