For recycling purposes,  plastics are divided into 7 different categories that are numbered 1 to 7.  In Guernsey at present, we are only recycling categories, Nos. 1, 2 & 6.

One of the neat features that I used frequently in MacOS X Leopard & Tiger was the ability to use the wifi connection tool to get the passwords for wifi networks that you have already connected to.  Being a consultant I am constantly hopping networks and using different devices (Laptop, iPhone, etc...

A Local Meal Every once in a while I manage to pull together a meal that astounds me.  I tweeted on Sunday with a picture of the meal in question.  What was really special about this meal was the sheer lack of food miles that went into it. Razor clams These were the heart of the meal and were fr...

On my way to bell ringing practice last night I happen to pick up a screw (easy tiger!) in one of my car tyres.  So during my lunch today I took the car into my local Target Auto Parts store to get the puncture fixed.

Background: For work, I’m using a Windows 2008 Server virtual machine for doing all my SharePoint and .Net development on.  As it has got all of the cool stuff I’m working on, it is also the machine that I use to demo what I can do to clients.  Recently I’ve had a bit of a serge in the numb...

For several years now I’ve been trying to find a way of keeping on top of everything that I need to get done.  To be honest, I didn’t think I had a problem until I read David Allens book “Getting Things Done” (GTD).  It was whilst reading that book that I realised that I sp...
