Happy 2012.

Bread, bread, and more bread seems to be the way of my time here in France…

I have nay sayed the nay sayers. I hitched from Edinburgh to Verneuil-sur-Avre, across the channel, with truckers, van drivers, and cars!

After a long lie and a bit of a late start, it’s time to see what hitchhiking is like on cmas day in France!

Stopping another night in Watford in order to get my full vocal strength back before continuing onwards to France…

One successful day’s hitching later, I’m in Watford 10 mins from Ferg’s flat. Happy days. Huge thanks to all the kind folks who got me here.

Coop Apple Pie with my name on it in the kitchen, shanks mummy…

Just got myself a very fair deal on a non-alcoholic vegan ticket to the Edinburgh startup cmas party: http://ping.fm/0SY5R

Just discovered the charity Opportunity International UK, anyone have any experience with them? Worth of supporting? opportunity.org.uk

I want to go to the flat and get started on the woodworm treatment, but it’s chucking down rain outside and being made of sugar, I’d melt…

Had a simple question about how to suspend / resume a server, too lazy to research, free called Rackspace support. Fanatical support!

US states that allow gay marriage compared with those that allow first cousins to marry. Fantastic infographic! http://ping.fm/OrZfL

Just opened a new *free* business bank account with HSBC. Thanks moneysupermarket. Goodbye outrageous charges from The Co-op, you suck!

Ran my financials for the year today, I’ve made about 50% progress towards my charitable goals for the year, and cash flow looks positive…

Left my phone at the SECC, remembered arriving at the station by taxi. Luckily had bike at station so a quick ride back and I got it.

After waiting for 2 hours for a courier to bring us fish and chips at New Start Scotland at the SECC, he turned up with only the banner!

MP3s from YouTube in <140chars. Greasemonkey + http://ping.fm/sAthU + WinFF. Let the ripping records roll…

Spot of successful dumpster diving in Davidsons Mains tonight, aside from the gate falling down, was like that when I got there, honest guv!

Wow, in about an hour from now it’ll be 11:11:11 on 11/11/11 in this timezone. Holy smackerel maties, land ahoy sailor, rig the gumboats!

My friend Chrissi made an awesome video of her “box” in Scotland, check it out! http://ping.fm/xBkdS

No turning back now, I’ve just cancelled my ticket to NYC. Oh well, another plan bites the dust…

Meditation at 8, cutting down trees at 9, walking the Pentlands at 1, that’s a power Saturday!

In Glasgow for more sales meetings at a much more sociable hour this week. Just finished another great burrito at @iLovePinto.

Chris says “if I want to hear music, I sing.” Fantastic, definitely the quote of the night thus far!!!
