So, err... I am sat in my "office" and was inspired to blog... here goes!
Rocket man used to be one of my fave songs, not a track I'd put on and "rock out" to, but a track that reminded me of a certain time in my life.... [And, at this point, as I was writing on my notepad, I decided to swap to my laptop, cause I have it with me...] ...It was around the time that Justin and I were driving around in his car a lot, travelling out to see Sharon, Wandering around.. You know, I think that might have even been around the time I was going out with a young lass named "Jodi" ...She's married to Nathan now
So, when I say the "office" I mean my "local" The Distillers pub in Hammersmith, Why am I here?... Michelle is out tonight and it's a quiet night, I'm sat, having some chips [The best chips in London] and a quiet coke... Bill is sat by the window, Bill is about 65... He's been coming here for the last 25 years, he's a sweet bloke, but I think quite the lad in his day. The music [on the stereo] is bad tonight, I've popped my iPod in, I'm listening to Ray Lamontagne...
Why do people read blogs?.. Why are you reading this?... I mean, what a boring story?... A fat, middle aged man, sat thinking about life, the universe and photography, in a Hammersmith Pub.... I have my camera with me, I could take some photos... I guess... I might do my threesixtyfive here tonight... just maybe
A bloke, thin as a stick, thicker than a plank, whiter than white, wearing a singlet and trackies just walked by... The police have just rushed past, I wonder if these two things are related.
I'm coming to you [part] live from this Vodafone HSDPA 3G card... I can't get onto flickr, that's a right pain in the whatsit!... I called them, they have no record of my threegee card! ACE!...
Hey, Stu!.. I wanted to say hi, you're about the only bloke that reads this - so, G'Day!... Stu is a mate of mine, I met him via flickr, and we email and stuff... I tried to help name his Guinea Pig... He didn't like "Gary Glitter" ...gah! So, well, Stu and I, if I had to hazard a guess, i'd say we'll be mates for a good while... While we're on the subject - ! - Guinea Pigs... they're not from Guinea and they're not ...realllly... pigs... so, urm... yeah... that's my point.
(Chlo!... you're not a bloke!!)
Chloe is going to try some "different" self portraits... Maybe? Chloe doesn't sleep enough.

That was lastnight, now it's today which is tomorrow if you're still thinking it's yesterday. It's not. Today, what a great day - not. Servers really do just do what they like, eh. I'm sat in Starbucks now - yes, I know, evil, whatever. Sat in starbucks on someone else' wireless [Thank you netgear, I've been using you for two years...] I got a new drive today, a G-Raid Mini It's a fw800 / 400 / usb2 external drive... it's small and darn cute, it's bus powered [no power packs folks] and has fan cooling... I copied my 300gb portable photo library to it today - didn't even start blowing warm air!!... amazing...
Yeah - so, go buy one..
This blog is getting to me... signing off
Industry guys...

I can't promise a funny comment! BUt just to say I do read - alas nothing like an olde man's ramblings to chuckle at in the evenings ;)
Me too! I read it, just may not comment on it!
I always read your blog! I just don't comment sometimes...
It's a daily fix for me ... your blog & is sometimes the only way to have a kind of chat with a very busy man!
I don't always comment either but I always check in to see what you're up to :-)
nnx
PS if you're middle aged .... you're not planning a very long life!
The way i look at it is if you're going to live to be 100 then middle age is 50! You have a loooooong way to go :-)
nnx
Haha. I saw this had 5 comments and expected them to be from you and Stu but alas, none of either! How strange...
Chloe reads your blogs because.. rambling is her favourite type of thing to read, and write. And because Simon is her friend and she likes to hear, or read, about her friends lives.
Did you have an extreme super sized chip again? You know I never think we finished that story.. if we did I can't remember it. It was just like "yeah that chip" "yeah what was with that" "well it was just one chip and.." and I don't remember the ending?
I've never actually been to a Starbucks. Innit.
Man, if it's a quiet night again you should come online and talk to an alien.
Or Batman. Your choice.
Oh, and... maybe, with the photos. Maybe when I feel better I will try it out and see what I can come up with eh. Except it's hard to do anything cool photography related when it's cooooold.
Not that it.. REALLY, is, but, you know, for ME, it's freezing.
And Chloe slept for a long time today so that should make Simon feel better.
Like, a really long time.
I think I might write in my blog now..
Enjoy the ramblings.
I'm a bloke and I read this! And before stu too. Yey.
Dude... Of course I read it!
