I am possibly one of the more disciplined people I know. In fact, some of my friends seem to think I run my life on six-minute slots* after my lawyer days where one of those six-minute slots would set you back twenty quid or so. (I feel obliged always at this point to clarify that … Continue reading »
Redesigning the look and feel of The Art of Steering was fun today! Long overdue, it has been something I wanted to try for ages. I’m pretty pleased with the result (it’s all still free software!) but it’d be great to hear what you think too… Well, August is nearly done and I’m about to throw … Continue reading »
Aargh, I am losing the battle of the half-read books again! To a degree that is starting to make me slightly stressed actually. Why, oh why, do I lack discipline when it comes to reading? It’s not that I don’t like finishing books (I do); I just love starting new ones more. This week, … Continue reading »

It’s a bit like a child who overloads their plate with food at a party. They promptly take a bite from every item before feeling overfaced by the quantity of … Continue reading »
Well, here I am with one week to go before the official induction for research students. I am ready to learn lots of very interesting things which will better equip me (I hope!) for this crazy research journey. The induction also includes what would be my third library tour in four years. But as the … Continue reading »
For that person who asked for photos of the books strewn around my house(!), here are the books within an 8-10 step walk across one floor of my house… You can tell I have not had guests recently or the lounge would be clear! With the exception of one, the books in the orderly … Continue reading »
I’ve not recently blogged an update on the number of books strewn across my house (in their various states ranging from nearly-read through to unread-but-promising-future-pleasure).
