I have loads of photos from my Quays expedition, but I haven’t had a chance to scan them all in yet (buy digital), so just this one for now.
A link to a list of WW2 links which I sent to myself for Seeds research. As with all these things, there’s a lot of redundancy.
Also, from Alan, a bunch of links. Including- a man mad about researching Groom “Area 51” Lake and another possible flying saucer. Brian also sent me a link to the USAF Museum.
List
It’s nearly New Year. I’m going to be so glad to see the back of 2001. It had such promise early in the year, but that all gave way to disappointments, frustration and bad management.
I’m into the final straight of my 3 1/2 + years employment with The Gas, my absolute final day has been set as 15th February. Tthough the way things tend to work out, that’ll probably become some time in March. There are a few people I’ll miss, and one ex-manager who I’ll be glad to never see again (though someone with a mysterious resemblance to her will be popping up in The Eliza Effect- why make up idiot managers when you have such a rich source making your life hell.) It feels wierd, and a little scary, but it’s past time to move on.
List time (it is the end of the year, after all)-
Places I’ll gladly never visit again-
Southampton
Barnet
Solihull
Staines
Leicester
Places I’d happily return to under other circumstances-
Cardiff
Edinburgh
London
Undecided-
Croydon
Richmond
Kingston
Observations-
If someone wants you sacked for another person’s mistakes, you’re probably in the wrong company.
Never promise more than you can deliver, and bitch slap anyone who does it for you.
In this networked world, why did I have to drive over 10,000 miles in the last six months?
Resolution-
Happier, healthier, wiser.
Wired lists The Greatest Hacks of All Time kinda makes me want to go phreaking.
