Ok, well it is here again. The most depressing day of the year. Like the sound of an elephant dedicating the bill plop through the letter box, the weather is dull and miserable, and there is less light than the glove box of an Austin Allegro. To top all of this off my normal 30 minute commute took me almost 2 hours thanks to some idiot on the M40 panging his or her car.

Almost 4 hours into the work day, and not even the thought of being almost half way through cheers me up, so I think I will take the rest of the day off, go home and curl up in bed with a good book, something summery and pray for spring to arrive.

Of course what will probably happen is that when I get home I will turn on my computer and do some more work, I am kinda sad that way, but then it has to be done.

Well another new year has begun, and this year I made 2 new years resolutions, first I will try and add more to my blog, who know I may even keep this one. The second is that I will not make silly new years resolutions that I will never keep.

Whats happening in the world of me at the moment then, well my work is keeping me very busy, still writing loads of support documentation that no one ever reads. I will be trying to update the main blueadmiral.com website when I have some time, and I will try and get out and about with my camera. Since the php update on 1&1 some time ago my old coppermine gallery is no longer fully functional, so I have decided to use Flickr, you can see my photos at this link : http://www.flickr.com/photos/10221816@N05/
