Hello again,

It’s Monday now and it was a long day. I’ve had a very busy and dreary day at work. There were a lot of things to keep up with and work on today at work.



I went to ASDA just after work to pick up some groceries. I finally broke down and bought a Freeview box for the TV in the living room. It wasn’t to much but it’s great to go from 2-3 channels with static to about 30 or so that come in clear now.



It’s been pouring rain on and off and it’s continuing to do so outside right now. I only hope that the sun comes out tomorrow.

Well, it’s a soggy Sunday in London.

I decided to force myself to go out today to see what I could find to do. With it being a bit wet outside I decided not too wander to far from home if the weather got worse or I simply got tired of it and didn’t want to spend an hour getting back home. I decided to hop onto the 486 bus towards North Greenwich (The O2) and see what I could find. About half way there I decided to grab lunch. I wandered into Pizza Hut and decided that it wasn’t for me so I left and went to Nando’s just down the way. I had a nice chicken burger, chips (fries, whatever...), and some garlic bread with a Diet Coke (Go Figure...). It was nice.



After that I got onto the 472 heading towards The O2 again and wandered inside to check out the concept O2 phone store and enquire about next Friday (The UK iPhone Launch) and a few other things. After that I went and found the King Tut exibition at The O2 which I believe I am going to have to check out this week sometime before it leaves the UK next month. Of note is that at The O2 they had some BMW’s outside (as an exibit / display) which I decided to check out. This included two F1 cars and several other BMW’s as pictured below.

Well, it’s been a fun day. I had a nice late start and decided to go into London to SOHO to check out all of the electronic’s shops. I wandered around, had a sandwich, had a drink, and walked around a lot. I was going to go back to Charring Cross and I got lost looking for a bus stop that wasn’t closed. I finally figured out where I was and went to Forbidden Universe for a while.



After walking around I realized that there were a lot more gay looking people (I’m not homophobic but it is something you tend to notice). I found myself at Trafalgar Square durring the Gay Pride Day event. There were a TON of people there. I would have to say 100K plus people. If anything it was a blast to accidentally run into the event. I hung out for a little bit, took a few pictures, and listened to the music before coming home to watch the new episode of Dr. Who.



I’m actually watching it now which is why I’m going to go and see what happens.

Well, I just got off of the phone with my Grandfather in Germany. I can’t even begin to recall the last time I spoke to him. It’s been too long and it was great to hear his voice. We went back and forth between English and German in our conversation which was great. I’m really glad to hear that he is doing well and is happy. With any luck I’ll get to go and see him next month if all works out.

I’m going to try to tinker some more with the site and add a few more things. Wish me luck.

Well, it’s Sale time at work so people from all around the world are ordering and returning things which keeps us very busy. I’m working on using a new web service more. It’s called QIK and basically it’s live online video and audio from my mobile phone anywhere, anytime. I’m hoping that through the use of this service I’ll be updating my website a bit more with content on my blog. Please let me know what you think.

A quick example is below:
