If dogs could drive…. maybe not.

August 29th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Weird

I have a dream that one day dogs will be able to drive. Just think - you could send them to the supermarket if you’d forgotten something, and it would be an interesting sight. The only flaw I can think of is that there may be some crashes as dogs like to stick their head [...]

Some ‘interesting’ dancing

August 29th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Belfast, Friends

Well it was G’s birthday while I was on holiday, so we went out on Friday night to celebrate - above is some ‘interesting’ dancing which took place even before we’d left Morrison’s (a bar) and headed to the Potthouse.
It was my first time out in Belfast for a while, but I am getting a [...]

Back in the UK

August 29th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Uncategorized

Well I haven’t posted for a while, as I only got back of my holidays last Tuesday, and my body clock still seems to be set on somewhere over the Atlantic. I had a great trip, which has made getting back to work hard.
I also feel I’m not actually back for long - I’m in [...]

The McGriddle

August 28th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Food and Drink, McDonald's

Yum! I’m a fan of breakfast in fast food places, and I think there’s something sadly lacking from McDonald’s breakfast menu here… McGriddles (that’s one of them above), which are available in McDonald’s in the US. Basically it’s the same as a Sausage or Bacon and Egg McMuffin, but there’s some maple syrup baked in [...]

A trip to Chicago

August 28th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Bungalow, Friends, Travel

One of the highlights of my recent trip to the US would have to be my trip to Chicago to see my mate Rob (who I met whilst working on the Bungalow), and his wife Marie.
That’s them in the pic above. I had a really great time staying with them for two days. One of [...]

Palm trees in Santa Barbara

I spot Flavor Flav!

August 17th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Film / TV, Music, Travel

Well I know the picture is totally rubbish, but it makes this post funny I thought. I was flying back from Bob Hope Airport in Hollywood this morning to Dallas Fort Worth, and who is at the gate? None other than Flavor Flav from Public Enemy! Him of the clock round his neck and new [...]

Made it to Cali

August 13th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Travel

Well after everything that happened with transatlantic travel last week, I made it to California on Friday, after about 28 hours travelling. I had to change my flight to London to the night before I was due to travel, book myself into a hotel there, and arrive at Gatwick six hours before my flight to [...]

A hot holiday!

August 10th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Travel

I go on holiday on Friday - and it looks like it is going to be HOT! It’s going to be 41 degrees when I arrive in Dallas.
So I’m going to be spending some time in Dallas, some time in California, and I’m going to visit my mate Rob in Chicago. I’m only going for [...]

Number one detective

August 8th, 2006  |  by Simon  |  published in Film / TV, Shopping

Well maybe after Columbo, but I was browsing around on Play.com the other day and found a Charlie Chan DVD box set for only £9.99! Bargain, so ordered. Charlie Chan films used to be on all the time when I was wee, and I can remember really liking them, but I haven’t seen one [...]
