Just Another Social Profile Really

Over the last few weeks I’ve read two books, and watched one movie, that deal with early British history, as well as another book that, though centred on the Roman Empire, but with no connection to Britain, touches on many of the same themes. The books, The Last English King and Kings of Albion by Julian Rathbone [...]

Well, it’s nearly Christmas and most of us will be thinking of spending the next few days with our friends, families & loved ones. So, with that in mind, please have a look at the photo above, and the video footage here, and think if you recognise this woman. Her name’s Blathnaid Timothy, she’s 33 & [...]

Back in March 2000 I landed back in Blighty after just over a year of travelling, much of which I’d spent in Sydney working in one of them new fangled internet cafés. Having enjoyed my time mucking about with Hotmail & ICQ, I decided to get a job in which I could continue to muck [...]

Right now I should be in New York but, due to the volcano (worst thing to come out of Iceland since Kerry Katona), I’m still at home. And so, for want of anything better to do, I thought I’d post some photos of my new NIKEiDs (courtesy of our very kind client). And yes, I [...]

At the end of this month I’m moving house. Or, to be more precies, I’m moving from a house to a flat. For this reason, I have quite a bit of stuff that I need to get rid of and whilst I’d like to donate it all to Freecycle, I also need to buy new [...]

One of the things that I have always loved about working in search, and its younger sibling social, is how friendly it is. Whether it’s the way in which the crew at SEOmoz embraced me when I first started using the site; the way that Lisa started chatting to me in the queue for customs [...]

Well, it’s official. I no longer work for Altogether or The Engine Group. In fact, for the next 11 days I guess that I’m officially unemployed. But a week on Monday I’ll be starting in a new role at the global media agency Mindshare. I’ve had an amazing time at Altogether and am really quite [...]

So Jon (below, with me in the white shirt posse) & Lisa (above) are getting married in Italy today and I’m gutted that I can’t be there to celebrate with them (I have another wedding in Dorset tomorrow and for some reason Jon & Lisa, selfish buggers that they are, wouldn’t move theirs back by [...]

I am so bloody relieved I’m prepared to let my blog fall prey to the “they’re just websites for photos of cats” cliché. Welcome home Domino.
