I’ve recently finished The Traveller by John Twelve Hawks and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it. It carries some of the themes from His Dark Materials (some of the best books you’re likely to read) and The Matrix (the good one).

They are currently repeating Brideshead Revisited on ITV3 in the UK. I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say that this is probably the finest adaptation of a novel put to film. It is a real work of astounding and living art. It is very rare that you find something so perfect. The cast alone…

These are The .NET Consultants for Sopra Newell & Budge. Regrettably Adrian Rodgers will be making his presence felt (-up!) elsewhere from tomorrow. I wish Adrain (sic) all the best and I have to admit that it was brilliant to work with him. He will certainly know what I mean when I say the “thick…

I’ve just found out that a letter I wrote has been published in the African Geographic. This is a glossy, but very good magazine pushing eco-tourism in Africa. I wrote in response to a Professional Hunter (PH) that suggested that responsible Canned Lion Hunting might not be such a bad idea. My letter said: I…

We have been threatening for a while to visit Kew Gardens, so today we finally made the effort. And it was worth it! The gardens are huge and really beautiful. Obviously the autumn shades make the gardens even more spectacular. Dale Chihuly currently has a “Gardens of Glass” exhibition on display throughout the gardens as…
