an end has a beginning

i'm trying not to forget about this old fashioned blogging thing now that the phenomenon of facebook as arrived. ok i have to say i'm hooked to facebook just for the fact that you can find so many people that you have lost track of. i suppose it is just a hi tech address book. that's right the good old blog won't get too neglected.

so i've finally finished on the pipeline archaeology job. it all ended today. so now i have to find something to occupy 12 hours of my day. its really good just to be back home and able to hang out with lisa knowing that i don't have to back to work on sunday night.

actually we only have a normal life for a few weeks then our summer plans kick in. first there is the Greenman Festival down near brecon. an amazing lineup. stephen malkmus from Pavement, euros childs and Richard James from Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals and lots more.

then lisa and i embark on our pilgrimage to santiago de Compostela in spain. we set off from teh france/spain border and tae 4 or 5 weeks to walk along the top of spain with our pilgrims passport.

Tour de france


Who knew so many people in this county enjoyed watching cycling. Just wait for my train away from the big city and back into sleepy wales. Hot to see le grand depart then the prologue time trial and the slightest glimpse of the stage start this morning. Great atmosphere.

Rabbitgate,graduands and journeys


This is the said culprit in last weeks rabbitgate affair that almost got me evicted from my work accomodation. Hard to imagine that this is the same rabid bunny that was tearing around the flat when the cleaners came in. This is biscuit by the way, our rabbit. Well lisa's really. The picture is of her right now in the back of the car mo our way back down to swansea. She's just just taking a few minutes out from driving. Lisa just been up for a job interview for a place on a graduate scheme doing community development stuff which seemed to in really well. As i say she is a graduand now as she passed her degree. It goes without saying that i am very proud of her. Well i purpose i just said it. So only about 4 hours to go. Exciting weekend coming up.on friday i shak my new contact lenses and then i head straight for london to watch the start of the tour de france. And before you say, i know it's in france but it starts in the uk this year. Ok
