The Scissors

The Scissors playing 'Now Or Never' at the Cambridge BarFly, February 2008, where they were supporting Glasvegas and Hijak Oscar. I wasn't there.

My one previous visit to the Lemon Grove was to see Radiohead in 92/93 sometime, makes you feel old! An almost birthday treat for Ange.

2nd time I've seen Robyn at the Phoenix, and he sang his song about cycling through Clyst Honiton, naturally.

Hold the front page!

Dad's parachute jump has also made it to the front page of the Higher and Lower Tale community website - TaleX - I didn't know such a thing existed. I've emailed the owner and asked them to put in a link to Dad's sponsorship page.

Dad's parachute jump

didn't happen on Friday, but it's not too late to sponsor him at his Just Giving website, should now be taking place this Thursday, weather permitting.

Ange's Google Earth work

has made it onto the Met Office website.

Weigh In

Pleasantly surprised to be 12st 1lb this morning.

Running commentary

I appear to be in compensation mode. Went out twice with Ange in June, doing 1.8 miles (~18mins) on 2nd June and 2.8 miles on the 23rd (~30mins). I then did 4.25 miles on my own on 25th (36-something over the 3.5 mile timed section) and again today (no times).
