Recent Stuffs

by David Dolphin on Feb.23, 2007, under Abroad, Iota, Meh, Skynet, UK, Work

Firstly, Congrats to Steve and Noirin, may they aim to out-pedant each other for many years to come.

I’ve been up to many things over the last while which I haven’t posted about.

I went to Scotland to visit Meg for her birthday, and also went down to Stockton to visit Poppy for a night. Photos of the trip can be found in my new flickr account.

I was given A Weekend in the City as a present from Meg and I purchased The Prayer on Vinyl (which happens to be my first Vinyl) while I was in Scotland. I’ll write a review some time soon.

I got Perspective up and running at work. It’s quite impressive and I would recommend anyone in a Windows based environment to check it out.

SkyCon happened. And it went quite smoothly. I met some great people at the conference (of which I have taken some photos). I also took 6 hours of video which I will be processing and editing over the next few weeks. Watch this space. I was also interviewed by the LugRadio guys for their show which should be online on Monday the 26th.

I started a new semester in UL which is cool, finally we have some computer related modules again (I’m currently in AM-061).

I finally got listed on Planet Nonado, seven months after I ask that my blog be aggregated. *grin*

London Part II

by David Dolphin on Jun.25, 2006, under Abroad, London, UK

Just after my last post I brought my sisters and Mum to the Apple store. They were very impressed, everything from the amount off free space in the store to OS X (Louise was heard saying “Ahh, so this in the next step up after Windows XP”).

Next was Hay Fever with Judi Dench. There were some great quotes from it like “Why are you being so nice to me? Its like you’ve got some plan about something” and “I won’t listen / You’ll pretend not to but you’ll hear every word”. It was nice not to have a second Musical, there was a campaign for Phantom of the Opera which would have driven me mad

Sunday morning we caught Mass in Westminster Cathedral and then went to take a trip on the London Eye. Due to Long ques (1hour+) we were unable to go to the Science Museum ( :( ) Went to Covent Garden after then off to the Airport to fly home. Back in the Airport I did manage to get another chance to play with a BlackBook.

So that was London, all in all a good trip.

London Part I

by David Dolphin on Jun.24, 2006, under Abroad, London, UK

I’ve been in London for more than 24 hours now and I’m still not even half way through.

I’m currently writing this on a Black MacBook (BlackBook) (cypher: :P ) in the Regent street store which is rather cool (both the store and the laptop). I’ll probably end up getting one at the end of the summer, depending on how exams go.

Went to see Les Misérables last night and even though I’ve seen it before the staging and lighting were very well done. Also did a Bus tour this morning and a tour of the National Gallery. Also got tickets to go on the London Eye tomorrow.

Could defiantly see myself living here if I have to in the future.

Going to see Judi Dench in a show tonight which should be cool.

I’ll keep ye posted.
