The No Mints Blog

Well here I am just having flown over the second Severn crossing and the big news is NO EASYJET MINTS!! Apparently they don’t do them any more. Fifteen mints late out of Bristol and on a 737 700. Now passed over the Valleys (I think) and it’s wall to wall cloud below. Time to get back to my podcast and The Telegraph I think. Terrible price on Grölsch in Bristol airport. Next stop Newcastle International.

Despite what you said on Watchdog last night, my Tom Tom worked fine. Sure it took me through the back of beyond but I did set it for the quickest route. Long stay car park e-ticketing worked fine. Checked in as soon as I arrived too, thank you Easymints :-). Need a coffee now!

While the world goes on around you

It’s strange, when you have time to burn. The world keeps on turning and people keep on hurrying. An air of calm descends on you, as you walk through the confusion of a Monday morning. Time for reflection and quiet, future planning. Pacing towards the distance with a pleasant, certain knowledge. The rain doesn’t come, the wind, calm. Life can and is good.

Orion’s Back

Early Wednesday morning, dream team updated, off to feed Derek. A lovely fresh morning, no wind and a clear sky. Looking south and there was Orion, I hadn’t really noticed it before but there it was in all it’s brilliance. A clear sign that’s summer’s gone and winter is on the way. Rather sad really and yet again I’m asking the question "where did the summer go?"
And gone it has. Winter leaks are here

Cotton Flowering

As the weather gets colder and wetter. The tomatoes start to die, the trees lose their leaves. A ray of hope appears, a cotton flower. A sign of hope, perhaps not but very pleasant any way.
The good and the bad.

How we come to rely on this stuff

It’s great, we can visit the world with just a click of a mouse. It’s all there, emails, websites, newsgroups and instant messaging. You get to rely on it. You get used to it. You build a schedule around it. And then it doesn’t work. Is it my end or is it your end? Why doesn’t it work? These are all the questions that fly through your head. Sadly we are all too reliant on a system that is all too fragile. A bit like life really.
Here’s to uptime 🙂

Well it was 101 on the Geeknewscentral ( http://www.geeknewscentral.com ) front and it really is rather wonderful. I’m definitely in the make it longer camp. Anyway, time for another politically incorrect haircut. Adrian was up in Newcastle having a birthday. Now there’s a coincidence. Clive was spot on with 92 days to Christmas.
The college had sorted out their doors and was open before 09:00. That’s that sorted. So it was into Cardiff on an overfull Pacer. No 37 & Mark II’s for me today. Spent my chocolate survey vouchers and headed for the Ernest Willows.
The good news is that they are doing a BOGOF deal on all their coffees before 12:00. Thought that they had Früh but it turned out to be a Belgian 🙂 strawberry beer call Früli, rather nice too.
Thanks to James Hustle for going above and beyond.
September the best month of the year.
