Anyone want to see "Plus One per Diem: Live" with me tonight at the Prince Charles off Leicester Square?

I know that I may well have people tuning out of Twitter and Facebook due to 4sq, so I figured I'd boost the signal here...

Basically it's a live Q&A / Podcast recording featuring Kevin Smith and Jen Schwalbach, you can find out details at http://www.smodcast.com/

Let me know if you want the ticket...

...I have lost the last bit of love for LJ...

I'm not going to delete my account or anything that drastic, but this is me saying that I am not going to be posting any more, or logging in here either - it tells me all that I need to know that I have not been here for over a month when once I was logged in all day.

It's been fun, and sometimes not so much fun, but I will always remember the good times and think of LJ fondly as my first blog / blogging experience.

Those who care at all will be able to find my irregular witterings in the following places, not that I am suggesting that any of you should care at all:

For those still using it avidly, I hope you continue to have fun, but for me the party is over, and so I bid you all a fond farewell

I'm working from home today, if for no other reason than it took me about four hours to get home last night and when I got up this morning the snow was considerably deeper and still falling.

Before we started on with our work (Lee-Anne is at home working as well) we headed out into the snow to take some pictures, and I decided not to risk my good camera and have a go at what kylecassidy brilliantly dubbed "iPhonetography", seeing as the conditions were at least interesting, but there was too much moisture falling from the sky for me to want to have my DSLR in my hands...

Anyway, here's hoping that te weather gets all of this disruptive behaviour out of its system before Xmas - too much going on over the Festive Season to be trapped indoors!

Well anyway, I hope you are all enjoying rather than suffering the snow if you have any, and well, happy Advent to one and all :-)

The rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen albums you've heard that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes.

I’m tagging no-one as I don’t appreciate being tagged myself.

Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Meddle - Pink Floyd
The Wall - Pink Flyd
Violator - Depeche Mode
Ultra - Depeche Mode
101 - Depeche Mode
Songs of Faith and Devotion - Depeche Mode
Pretty Hate Machine - Nine Inch Nails
The Downward Spiral - Nine Inch Nails
The Fragile - Nine Inch Nails
With Teeth - Nine Inch Nails
Eudora - The Get Up Kids
Unsolved - Karate
Two Suns - Bat For Lashes

(Less than 3 minutes; I think that I could probably write a much longer list "without thinking about it" in 15 minutes, to be honest)

TTFN

I have always said that I would want to be played by John Cusack if fantasy was appropriate to the question, but being more realistic I would have to go with Jack Black ;-)

So, after a day of rest yesterday when I could barely walk post 21 miles on Sunday it was back tot he routine, and I decided that this morning I would push it out and do the longer return route that I did on Saturday (not GPS'ed) through Caversham town centre and over Caversham Bridge instead of Reading Bridge. Unfortunately the GPS did not pick up the last three quarters of a mile - d'oh! AND my pace was off, despite the extra distance, so this week is going to be all about getting that pace back ;-)

RunKeeper Shared Fitness | Cycling Activity

This morning I got up __early__ and did my "daily miles" (that I would normally do between Paddington and the Office) before leaving for work. At least while the days are long, and specifically light in the morning, I am considering switching over to this approach to my daily exercise, as it makes in-Town social life more do-able after work, and with no shower facilities at the new office leaves me more colleague-friendly through the day...

I LOVED the feeling / buzz I got from doing it this morning; I am going to do it all next week and hope that the shine doesn't come off it... Oh yeah, and I knocked nearly four minutes off my time too, and I __think__ that I can do it faster too... ;-)

I've always wanted a Road Bike, a proper one as opposed to my lovely but basically inferior folder, but one always wonders if the desire will in the end be better than the reality... I am pleased to report that as I sit here winding down from our maiden voyage together around the Greater Reading area that the reality is so much better!

Hello All...

I know that I don't post here all that often any more, but that's more a reflection on how busy I am (mostly) at work than anything else - my other blogs see woefully small amounts of traffic as well...

Anyway, I am starting a new photographic project and I am looking for willing volunteers...

I know, you are immediately assuming that I want you to take your clothes off, but I beg to differ - this "work" requires y'all to keep 'em on!

Now it wouldn't be me if there wasn't a catch, so here goes...

I'm looking for couples (real or fake I don't care, but if you are going to rope a "mate" into this, keep reading before you do), gay or straight, young or old, big / medium / small, white/black/brown or even green... These couples need to be comfortable with the following three requirements:

1. You need to be ok with kissing in public, and when I say kissing I mean snogging / tonsil-hockey / pashing

2. You need to be ok with putting your hands in places on your partner's body (and vice versa) that __might__ raise some eyebrows, but without showing ANYTHING.

3. You need to be ok with the idea that these images may well end up in a book, or on a wall in a public place and they will DEFINITELY end up on the Internet, but only on my site - they will NEVER be sold / syndicated to any other internet sites. They WILL NOT appear on Facebook; in fact you will have to agree to not post them on Facebook or in fact anywhere on the Net (except online modeling site(s) if you are a model and wish to self-promote with them).

I am not offering any money for this assignment, but I am more than happy to supply one or two images per couple as keepsakes / portfolio material etc...

If this sounds like something that you might enjoy doing and you have a lover / occasional partner / friend who you could do it with then please get in touch.

If you like the idea, but it's not for you, then please rack your brains for people you know that would be "up for it" who will not have seen this post - it is posted as public in order to facilitate the "pass it on" thing...

..::EDIT::.. For the record I am more than prepared to travel (internationally if necessary) to get this done with people who are cool, diverse and into the idea, so don't think I won't come to you if you are in [insert country outside the UK here], ok?

Thanks for reading, I hope to hear from some of you...
