My Year in Photos – July 21st – "Ooh, that’s a whopper!", originally uploaded by henweb. Today’s photo was taken this evening in our garden, and is of one of the now-massive courgettes we have managed to grow as part of our vegetable selection. For some odd reason our tomatoes have refused to grow, and…
My Year in Photos – July 20th – “The story of Colin”
My Year in Photos – July 20th – "The story of Colin", originally uploaded by henweb. I had a very interesting (potential) client meeting in Theale today, though past experience tells me it would be smart not to mention their name in my blog. So rather than show you the fun photos I took in…
My Year in Photos – July 19th – “And….. ACTION!”
My Year in Photos – July 19th – "And….. ACTION!", originally uploaded by henweb. Today’s photo is one of two showbiz encounters I had while wandering the streets of Chiswick this lunch time.

Juvenilia – An end to the odyssey before it even began?
Whilst driving home the other night, I (mentally) stumbled upon an idea for some fun content for this blog, other than the occassional rant or my ‘Year in Photos’ pictures – based mainly on proving what a twat I was when I was a teenager. Somewhere in my piles of nostalgia, I have two A5…
My Year in Photos – July 18th – “Rapunzel! Rapunzel!”
My Year in Photos – July 18th – "Rapunzel! Rapunzel!", originally uploaded by henweb. In order to break the cycle of Mario Kart Wii / Cleaning / Napping, which seemed to fill most of our weekend, we took Robert to the park this afternoon. Visiting the same park I had been to the previous weekend,…
My Year in Photos – July 17th – “The Climb”
My Year in Photos – July17th – "The Climb", originally uploaded by henweb. We took Robert along to a garden centre this afternoon – but this was no ordinary garden centre. This (Wyevale) has two MASSIVE kids play areas, one inside and one out. So it’s a great place to take kids when you’re after…
10 Life Lessons I’ve Learnt From Mario Kart
Having played Mario Kart on the Nintendo Wii for a few years now, it struck me that there are lots of lessons one can learn from the game – not just for gaming, but for life itself. Here are mine: It’s not always best to be first too early. Some times it’s better to trundle…
My Year in Photos – July 16th – “Eat my dust, Funky Kong”
My Year in Photos – July 16th – "Eat my dust, Funky Kong", originally uploaded by henweb. Due to a complete lack of televisual stimulus this evening, Sara and I opted to partake in a bit of Wii action – something we’ve been very lax about for the past year or so. We opted for…
My Year in Photos – July 15th – “I love the rain”
My Year in Photos – July 15th – "I love the rain", originally uploaded by henweb. After the impressively angry storm clouds in yesterday’s entry, today was unsurprisingly very rainy – just like I love it! Thankfully I clocked the clouds as I was parking the car and grabbed my umbrella – so I was…
My Year in Photos – July 14th – “That is one moody sky”
My Year in Photos – July 14th – "That is one moody sky", originally uploaded by henweb. Today’s photo was snapped from my car window, on my way home, just as the weather was turning VERY angry-looking. The shiny new-ness of the Hilton (on the ex sewage works in whiffy Whitley) contrasts very nicely with…
