    Given my previous post, the flipside of children being so involved in technology is that they have no idea how delicate or expensive it can be. Apart from getting an Apple TV that I can stow away somewhere and sticking speakers on walls I’ve been put off buying any decent technology for the house. My…

    Jack has been drawing his own comics and reading some of the new Ironman stuff. The comics ask for kids to draw Marvel characters & send them in. So Jack drew a great collection of characters, from Ben Grimm to the Hulk. I’ll stick it up here or on Flickr. Jack suggested that we scan…

    Is a grande latte the ideal recovery drink post-gym? It has caffeine, sugar & protein. It also has a fair bit of fat, and probably not enough of the other bits, so maybe not. It helps me think during my first meetings of the day though!

    I stand by my comments that Wikipedia is a good resource, and that if you think parts of it are wrong then you should contribute to it yourself. I also warn that no source is infallible, particularly a source open to all for revisions. An article on Slashdot reports that an edit to a Wikipedia…

    I’m into my final 4 week training block now before my next exam: the Llanelli half marathon. I’ve never raced this distance before and with the pace that I want to run in mind, it’s a daunting prospect. The course is by the sea, so I guess that runners are at the mercy of the…
