Running with Pineapples
I'm going to be running the Winter Pineapple Classic, a 5K (3 mile) 'fun' run over obstacles on Saturday November 14.
The event is to support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Any and all donations are gratefully accepted and can be made up until December 4, 2009 at this special page.
My First Birdie
About two months ago, we decided to take some golf lessons. I had not had lessons before, but had hacked around the nine hole municipal course near Caerleon in South Wales more than ten years ago.
So after taking a few lessons at the Bellevue municipal course and a few rounds at the Crossroads par 3 course, I got my first Birdie! (OK, it was the ninth at the Crossroads course and I had shot 6 on the fourth. But it came off the back of 3 pars in the round.)
It was a great feeling and hopefully the first of many.
It’s been how long?
My wife made a comment this morning that I should update my website as it had been a while since anything changed. I couldn't remember when I last posted, so I had a look... 18th February! I can't believe it, six months has past and I haven't written one post. I will offer no excuses, as there are none that can justify such a long period of inactivity.
However, so much has happened in that six months. The biggest event is that Susanna and I have moved to Seattle in Washington State, USA. (For those of you that don't know us, we used to live in London, UK.) The reason: I've moved over with my company. I'm still doing the same job as a Consultant to the mobile content world, but now I'm doing it in America.
We are both so excited to be here. It's been a beautiful summer (which isn't over yet) and we have found a lovely place to live with a fantastic lake view. We are really happy to be here and would like to thank everyone who have helped us in our first couple of months.
