What drives you?

Drive and motivation typically go hand in hand but it’s something that typically does not come naturally.  I love running, in fact the only thing that I love more than running is cycling, but with the hectic lifestyles that we lead today it is difficult to find the time to do these kind of activities [...]

I picked this link up the other day and all I can say is WOW. These guys must be completely off their heads doing this but take a look for yourself and let me know what you think. http://tinyurl.com/9cj5el Just for the record I would LOVE to do this…..

Reinventing me

Intriguing title maybe but what am I talking about.  As we go through life we become who we are by the people we meet, the surroundings we live in, our role models that we adopt as well as many other things but does this make a better you?  In short maybe but then maybe not.  [...]

Service with a smile

I believe that the current economic climate helps us all to appreciate that we need to nurture the client base we have much more than we have previously.  As businesses start to hunker down to weather the oncoming storm they need to know that their trusted advisors, whether this be IT or other services, are [...]

Ironic is the only word for it!

I wrote yesterday about doing something you normally do but different.  Well yesterday, as you may recall, I decided to walk to the shop which was very liberating however today I am regretting it.  For the last couple of months the car has been a little slow starting, you know how it is when you [...]

New year, new start

For those who have followed this blog in the past you will know and see that I have been very quite since summer.  The reasons for this are many but most of them are due to personal circumstances which have knocked my life completely off kilter and have no only taken a lot of physical [...]

Rough rides

As I said yesterday we recently came back from France and the crossing there was a little rough.  The first taste of this was when we arrived only to be told that the ferry had been delayed by 2 hours due to bad weather.  Now on-land the weather was ok, a little overcast but on [...]

Silence is golden…

As you will see things have been extreemly quiet of late.  Due to some personal stuff that was happening throughout May/June I had to focus my attention elsewhere for a while, then of course we have had the kids summer holidays which is always great.  You get to see the kids more but then after [...]

Light relief

As anyone in IT will tell you most of your time is spent in front of a computer and if you work in support then a whole heap of that is spent watching progress bars descend into the abyss of life.  I would estimate now that I have spent approximately 40% of my working time [...]
