Happy 2012 everyone. I haven't posted in a while but I figured I'd put you all up to date with this. Firstly, still at SafeHaven. Secondly, Lots to do this year. Thirdly - at the moment, no hot water or heating! Temperatures plummeted last night but remained (just) in double figures. Boy, does it get cold here! The title and image is for the titular namesake, who lit candles during the Long Twilight Struggle, when his people, the Narn, fell. G'Kar never gave up hope. I won't give up in 2012 either. More soon I hope - check out my Tweets for up to date info @Ravefinder

Well, This was early morning, Saturday, from the Old Kent Road, as I made my way home from London. Absolutely amazing journey home, one of the best, if not the best yet and my box ticked for 'return journey on foot from London' for this year. On a more interesting note, I've either caught a cold from this exploit or the Hayfever has kicked in with a vengeance, one month AFTER it should have kicked in... Bother... Edit 12/09/11 - so it did work!Hope you enjoy the picture, just wish I had a better resolution camera at the time! Sorry for the absense of posts, I intend to make up for this soon.

Tonight clogged up and the week was going so well! Near mid-summer and I am now noticing an onset, despite the terrible conditions, of seasonal malody. Tuesday is going to be fun!!

Seemingly. Apart from an awful wake up at 4am Thursday 9/06, due to difficulty breathing, this week hasn't been bad. Almost in half way now... but hopefully the wet weather will hold (and the land needs the water) so my symptoms will be abated...!

At the end now. last night no music but an absolutely charming wake-up call just past midnight. Following this I managed to see 'Old Boy' for the first time (a very disturbed movie). Here's a report on my 'condition', 5 days into the terrible month of June, is okay but I have had several attacks, one of which my Niece was witness to on day one, 1st June. Not good. Today, a rainstorm is seemingly having a proactive effect on this but earlier, even without sunlight, I was nearly overwhelmed by the unexplainable. I cannot see what causes the attacks, there appears to be no conclusive contributor to the attacks, only that I am now in June, and they happen, now. They stop, in July. Any Scientists want to try and explain? Whilst the symptoms suggest Hayfever, how can this be in no sunlight and a rainstorm - and why only in a single month? Comments please?

Well, it's been a while coming! I've garnered a few days off to do 'stuff'. Some new shelving in the cupboard room to begin with and then a field test for a new piece of kit in London. No, it is not what has been spoken of in past postings but it's along the same lines... All part of renovation plans and new hardware additions to make things a little more second decade of the 21st Century for me, even if, looking at 'stuff it still seems behind where perhaps it should actually be... On a non-related issue: my tv aerial has literally fallen off the side of the flat. I still have signal but strangely only HD not 'normal' digital for several channels. Hopefully this can be fixed too in the next few days but strange, the aerial seemed to have come down very cleanly...
