I would have started this post with a photo of a “Welcome to Lancing” sign but alas, I couldn’t find one on my way from Shoreham to Lancing and at any rate, I haven’t got a decent digital camera at the moment so it wouldn’t have mattered.
But welcome to Lancing, West Sussex at any rate. Quite the change from bo-ho Brighton. Despite some reservations though, I’m already feeling positive effects from the move.
As mentioned in the 2009 top ten, last year I started following the Phillies. I was looking for some colours to sport to make me feel a bit closer to the Fightin’s while watching ESPN coverage at two in the morning and on hunting around the web, I came across Birdland.
I thought I’d do a little promo for this site on here for my UK fans. This is a kind of 2010 Birdland wants list, so feel free to contact me for me address so you can send me sweet merch (and someone get me the 2009 WS knit hat as it’s fucking freezing).
This one’s for Scott Eyre and Brett Myers.
As it’s gone New Year, I decided to have a quick look over my shoulder and see remind myself what was good about 2009. I have to admit, but won’t dwell on, that finding a top ten took some thinking. A couple of happenings were obvious but then I got to about no.7 and it seemed the well of good fortune was drying up.
Still, here it is and they are all positives. I think each speaks about different aspects of me. Have a butchers after the break.
I have three major aims this year,
These are the ends I have in mind.
Thanks to books read last year, I feel like I have the mental tools to get them done.
Here’s to 2010.
my good friend Matt Devine asked me for the recipe for my spicy non-meatballs and rather than right it down on a scrap of paper, I thought I’d post it up here for posterity.
Disclaime first. Haute cuisine this isn’t. I’d say my diet is some way more stodgy than other people’s so don’t expect light and fluffy food that melts in your mouth. Do expect something that will leave you with a satisfied “I can’t eat another bite” feeling though.
I got a new 8gb iPhone yesterday. This is probably not much news to most but worth a blog on my part. Quite chuffed with it. Not totally blown away but definitely better than the Samsung I was using.
This weekend just gone, Juretic Media closed it’s offices for a long weekend and headed for the Cornish coast for a company surf session.
A 5am start from Brighton saw us in St.Buryan near Lands End by lunchtime – perfect time to hit the beach.

Just testing out the Scribefire blogging extension for Firefox that was co-invented by Nick Wilson who used to run Threadwatch.org.
It’s got a nice interface for blogging with ease without having to login into anything else.
