As I haven’t posted in so long, there are a couple of other things that have happened recently….
my sister Ailse, graduated last week from St. Andrews with a 2:1 degree - well done Ailse! (And check out the three random weirdos gate-crashing the pic above)
my Dad got awarded an MBE in the recent honours list, [...]
I’m like a bus…
June 29th, 2008 | by Simon | published in Uncategorized
… no posts for ages and along come loads at once.
It’s been about two months since I posted anything on here, and excuses, excuses, but I have been up to my eyes recently. Work has been manic - if I haven’t been out filming, I’ve been in London attending a leadership course which was spread [...]

March 3rd, 2008 | by Simon | published in Uncategorized
Ok I’m totally, totally fed up of feeling ill. I’ve had it for like more than a week now - running nose, heavy eyes, swollen tonsils, the shivers, a cough - the only thing I haven’t had is actual vomitting and diahorrea (thank god for small mercies I suppose). But I’ve totally had enough - [...]
I *heart* Tegan + Sara
March 3rd, 2008 | by Simon | published in Music, Uncategorized, Work
I got to meet one of my favourite bands this week. Tegan and Sara are two identical twins from Canada, and I have a couple of their albums. They were gigging in Belfast this week, and we were doing an interview with them for ATL TV, so I sheepishly turned up and had a quick [...]

There you go. Said it.

This is a lot better than it was earlier in the week. Think multi-coloured, particularly green and purple!
Allergy update!
January 21st, 2008 | by Simon | published in Uncategorized
So a while ago I had a trip to casualty after I had what was diagnosed as an anaphylactic shock. It wasn’t pleasant, I’ll tell you that. After what seemed like waiting for an eternity to see a specialist, I got an appointment last weekend at the allergy clinic in Belfast. Basically it involved me [...]
