Coping with public and private transport since 2001
In just a few hours, it’s about that time of the year. You get to kiss the person you’d wanted to kiss all year long as of the fact that there’s a brand new year on the doorstep! Also, it’s the time of rigourous consumption of numerous “oliebollen” and some champagne. I’m not going to participate in at least the
Continue readingIt’s really early this year, but with us being together for a solid 5 years, I got a present. It’s the 8275! I’m really chuffed with this new model, as it’s the first I’ve bought in a loooong time. I know the 8285 is also out there, yet I’m still pondering the purchase as it’s not cheap. 😉 Thanks a
Continue readingI couldn’t put it more accurately I guess, but from where I stand it’s true. Autumn is the most depressing time of year. Lots of wind, rain and cold stuff. But still too warm to get the snowy wintery fun that is due in a few months. Suffering from colds throughout the entire Autumn seems to be my destiny this
Continue readingWell, yes. I’m still alive. Even though it doesn’t particularly show from the activity over here, I’m still going strong. So why is this post called WP2.7 I can hear you ask? It is because I’ve upgraded this blog to run the beta1 and beta2 of WordPress 2.7. Right now, we’re on 2.7-beta2-9559, so it’s really cutting edge over here!

Oh well, my digital alter ego hasn’t faded away yet and a little time off has set my mind to other things completely. Things I really want to blog about are: (in non-restrictive

Often, the are with three or more, and they tend to lie flat on the ground beneath my car to enjoy the radiating heat. I do not dislike cats, or experience dismay from the presence of
Continue readingI’ve mentioned it on some previous posts already, I’m a long-time Firefox addict. Everywhere I go, and on all computers I work, I’ve installed a version of Fx3, and on most including my favourite plugins. Maybe I’m a tad late with this, but since the release of the thing, I’ve been using Google Chrome on my work-laptop. What can I
Continue readingAfter an 11 hour trip (which actually is very short for the distance covered), we’re back at home. Tired, yet gleeming with joy about the trip is has been. We loved it, each and ever bit. Well, except the bed. But the rest was great! I’ll make a proper post later on, after we’re done doing all the laundry. 😉
Continue readingToday has been pretty much exhausting, which is partly due to the fact our bed in our mobile home really sucks and partly due to the fact that getting up early and walking for almost five hours in the blistering heat (33+ degrees Celcius in the shade) has the tendency to wear one down pretty hard. I’m assuming both are
