    I was searching the web for new watch straps and came across this site by a guy from up North: Timefactors.com This fella’s a watch enthusiast with excellent taste. Check out the Glycine watches.

    I had a meeting in Cardiff today, so I got to spend a bit more time with Kim and Jack and work at home this afternoon. At the moment Jack asks for something by pointing and shouting, “uh, uh, uh!” The new, preferred method is to get him to point and ask, “please?” We’re getting…
