Now I know I had nothing to say, so I’m going to say nothing. But I am going to point you to two "non-stories" that appeared at Yahoo! today; http://uk.news.yahoo.com/020412/80/cwhii.html http://uk.news.yahoo.com/020412/80/cwhgs.html Reuters, that is not journalism it is just a waste of time.

Nothing to be seen here
Nothing to be seen here this week, sorry Mrs P. I won’t be saying much over the weekend as we are going away. Keen observers (Mr Reeve) will have already guessed our destination – we are going to the Hunter Valley again. Well, Bobo’s sister is in town and its rude to come all this …
Last night
Last night rather than watch the Phantom Toss like virtually everyone else in Australia I tuned in to Sweet Revenge on the ABC. Which was not only a very good programme, but also made me feel slightly homesick for London. For those that missed it (or watched Law and Order or maybe even one of …
I almost forget
I almost forget, the absolute highlight of the week had to be receiving a new box of business cards. Because I was in severe danger of running low. I’ve only got about 950 left of the 1000 cards I’ve been issued over the past couple of years. I think you will agree that the situation …

Lorna is in the building
For the curious amongst you Lorna, Bobo’s sister, arrived safe and well (courtesy of Singapore Airlines) last night. In a cruel cultural initiation we made her watch the Footy Show. Surprisingly enough we didn’t do this on purpose, it just happened to be on the television. Honest.
Changes

Announcement

Good Friday
It is Good Friday so I’m at home. Bobo is out having coffee with a friend and I’m taking the opportunity to just "muck about" on the internet with my two machines at home. I know, how bourgeois. It has been commented that our dining room table more resembles the bridge of the Starship Enteprise …
Misunderstanding
There is a tannoy system in use at the building where I am currently working. Why? Because there is. Anyway, there was an announcement this morning which I could have sworn was; "The Rabbit Prototyping demonstration is commencing in training room 1a" The rush for the doors was quite imposing, almost a stampede. Well, actually …
