Heathrow Terminal 5

January 6th, 2009 No comments

Just passed through there for the 4th time; seems to me to be a well designed airport experience.

That said, I could do without having to have my photo taken and stored by BA just so I can fly to Edinburgh. Needless to say I could not see any overt explanation of what is being done with the data and given the deployment at the front of a queue there is little chance for a passenger to ask about it.

The Annual Diet

January 1st, 2009 No comments

Oh well, one more day on the festive diet before I start my annual weight loss campaign.

Last year worked well and I only put weight on again as Katherines pregnancy led to me grabbing lots of junk food and getting less exercise. So, I’ll do the same low-carb, Andy Coleman designed diet as last year.

Starting weight and target weight to follow….

Baby 1.o is causing mayhem, 6 hours ago we were worried he was not feeding enough – now that he is feeding too much. Oh well, we certainly had plenty of warnings that the first week would be traumatic…

A rare treat

November 10th, 2008 No comments

Well, it does not happen often, but i’m actually very pleased with a new product i’ve bought – a Toyota Prius. It’s not flash, but it has good gadgets in it and just drives well.

Of course all did not go 100% smoothly; I leased the car and had a torturous time getting the paperwork I need from the lease company to get residents parking and residents discount for congestion charge.

Same happened with the last car – reminder to self, don’t lease another car without sorting this out in advance.
