Gone Ape

Went to Go Ape at Leeds Castle on Friday, bit of a work jolly. None of the pictures or video really came out that well, but here is me on a zip line / death slide / flying fox.It was great! Some pictures to come too.As a reward for watching my video...

Lost!

Not Lost the TV show, I haven't actually thought about that since watching the fairly rubbish end of series four and writing that subject line. No, actually lost, some people I met yesterday who did not know where they were.My walk from work to the s...

Bullet train does London to Ashford in 32 minutes

rail news has the details, that's nice, but when you think about it that's not really all that impressive - the current trains could do it in not much more than that if they didn't stop at all the stations in between. Still, looking forward to it, ho...

Our actual first day in Key West

I realise that my previous post about our first day in Key West a) didn't contain any info, b) had things from our second day on the map, and c) has slipped down the page and no-one will read it. So here at last is the first part of our journey. Clar...

"Fundamentalist" for the Grand National

That's what I picked in the sweepstake anyway, not actually my tip. He's 50-1, so if you take up the �25 free bet offer on popbitch and it comes in, KERCHING!!!

RE: Anyone care to leave a message in English?

Ok.. the Orient Express trundled into the Harbour station this afternoon, which was a surprise as I was led to believe the final visit was in November 2007?On that subject, the penultimate visit(?) of the Golden Arrow steam train will take place this...

Folkestone Central and Folkestone West to get high speed trains (but not Sandling)

This info from this week's KM Extra free sheet, but has been made public by Southeastern Trains. I did wonder just how fast the high speed service could be if it stopped at all the little stations along the way.No mention of the services from Central...

Thanks for listing our matches down at Hythe Town FC � all publicity, much appreciated. We're having a great season, playing excellent football, and there is always a friendly welcome (sometimes too friendly and you get roped into helping, like I did...

West is best right now too

The wife ideally wants to go to Victoria, but just about anywhere in London is good, and that's good from West. Also the proposed (and I think actually due within the next two years) high speed rail link will be using Canterbury West so that'll shave...

Do you really think DeHaan has made any money on this yet?

He's spent money but is unlikely to have anything other than humungous losses so far I'd have thought.Are you a homeowner in the area? I am, I'm hoping to make some money, damn this property slump, roll on the high speed rail link and the hordes of l...

Festive Fun

Welcome back after the christmas break, hope you had a good one. We did, felt a bit quiet though, no big late nights or anything. Kind of handy really, as I'm back in work today, I volunteered to be in on these (hopefully) quiet days between christma...

10 myths about vegans

www.bboheme.com (who I once bought some shoes from) emailed me today to tell me it's world vegan day and to share with me an advert for their shoes and things, cunningly wrapped in a "10 Myths about Vegans" list. They know bloggers love lists like fr...

Bless The Boot

Bless the boot, come on England. Really looking forward to this tomorrow, like every other part time England fan. I would not say we have a chance really, but you never know. Personally I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a food poisoning outbreak at...

Day of SPORT

No, more likely day of EATING, with SPORT for dessert. Don't suppose we'll see any of the England v Estonia game today though you never know, we will be in Canterbury. There's some kind of food fair on in Dane John gardens, which is near the bus stat...

Didn't go to Canterbury all weekend!

Imagine that... Overslept Sunday morning, so we went to Escondido for lunch instead. The chef got my food wrong again, so for the second time in a row mine came free, that's nice. Apparently Escondido weren't quite recovered from a disaster the previ...

Hey London tube travellers, Here's a song for you. Only listen to it if you like lots and lots of swearing, and weak b3ta style graphics over a tune you've heard before mind. I'm not really that arsed about the tube strike today as, HEY, I'm well ou...

Ooh lightning strike!

No trains from Folkestone for the forseeable, because of a lighting strike over night, we do get all the action here don't we. They can't put on any replacement busses until after the school run as they're all in use. I'm getting a lift in today so I...

RE: Clotto

Hey you Portsmouth bashing again? Or just Gosport this time... When I read this in the local rag it was a 16 year old girl's ticket - starting to wonder if there was any truth in the story.
