What’s Up?

It’s amazing some of the things you find on top of the bus shelters around London.

Hmn… perhaps this sees the dawn of a new photo project?

Tube Thoughts

I find that I have some of my wackiest thoughts while I’m on The Tube. I ought to get into the habit of bringing my offline blog with me.

Moleskine Diary

To see what the fuss was about and to celebrate my PhD application, I thought I’d splurge and get myself a Moleskine diary for next year. I’m looking at it and to me, it seems a lot to be paying £10-15 for it. It’s quite nice, but not that nice. I find the pages a bit on the thin side.

To protect my overpriced diary, I made it a little jacket out of felt. I stitched on a pen holder and a little pocket to hold a USB stick. I even added a fat ribbon bookmark! It works and looks rather sweet. I’m just trying to decide on what kind of fastening I want to add.

Domo!

I thought I’d jazz up my Aspire One with a cool vinyl decal of Domo. Apparently, he farts when he’s upset.

There’s nothing quite like a toothy monster to say – “Hands off my netbook”.
