I like plugins, they are fun and offer me shiny things for my site, not too many of them though otherwise my wordpress site will be slooooooww, which I dont want. So those I do install need to be worth it *flicks hair like in the tv advert. Here’s the plugins that I think will add […]
Last week (well more like a month ago now that i’ve finally got around to publishing this, but i’m choosing to leave week in for dramatic effect) I received worrying if not entertaining news from my little cousin Ellie who is currently in her 1st year studying up at Nottingham University. In its simplest state, […]
Staying in hostels is an excellent way of saving money on the road, the trouble is, sometimes they dont provide the most comfortable nights rest. There are any number of things that could keep you up at night during your stay in a hostel …
Loud roommates going to bed later than you
Roommates who snore
Creaky beds
Smelly room
Outrageous heat

I lived/dossed in Sydney for the best part of 3 months between 2006 and 2007. In that time I think I got to know the place pretty well and would quite often just wander around the city, taking in the atmosphere whilst slowley cooking in my embarrassingly pale English skin.

I’m only about 5 years late in getting an iphone, but now I have my 3GS i’ve been keenly scowering the apple apps store for free apps, and inparticular free photography related apps. Its not the most powerful camera attached to my phone, so any help in making my pics look a little better is […]
This is my favourite picture I took in Croatia. It was taken from our guesthouse room window and looks out of the Dubrovnik castle.
The Tongariro Crossing is probably one of the hardest hikes I’ve ever completed, but to be able to walk one of the ‘sets; of my favourite books/movies made it all totally worth while. Call me sad, but I’m a big Lord of the Rings fan. I’ve read the books, watched the films and occasionally dress as […]
