Shamelessly stealing Rob's post (which is a great idea...), a quick review of the resolutions to date this year

Fitness/Cycling

In a conversation with Byrnie and Rob about a year ago, I set myself a number of new year resolutions. Some were about getting back into shape, however some were about sorting out the fact that my taste in music stopped evolving in about 2002, and I had pretty much stopped discovering and listnening to new bands. Also, I was in a bit of a rut with reading too...tending to read the same authors.

I'm on a diet...the first real one I've ever done. I've been on health kicks before now, but this is the first time I've done a proper count-the-calories diet with the express goal of losing weight.

February last year I got myself a new motorbike...the rather shiny and gorgeous Honda VFR800.

I think I'm pretty much sorted for my trip to France next month...

...it was about 2006. The company were claiming that online shopping via phones was "the next big thing", and I poo-poo'ed it, as at the sime most "smartphones" still had a screen the size of a stamp...

I've provisionally decided that next year I'm going to head over to France, and follow the Tour De France for a bit...probably a week or so. I'll pack up the motorbike, chuck a tent on there, and drive down to Folkstone.

Super Monday Night Combat Invitational (hereafter referred to as Super MNC) is the open Beta for Uberents follow-up to the XBox Live (followed by a PC port) Monday Night Combat. The original was a game I really enjoyed, and it went down pretty well at Decembers Fishcon.

Today I say goodbye to Matilda, my companion of the last 6 years.

Christmas decorations are going up, town is too busy, and for the 4th year running Yell have announced redundancies in the I.T department.
