I was invited out to Grand Cayman for the last month by a company working in the domain name industry. I had a look around the island, met the team, and enjoyed the lifestyle. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been offered a place on their team, and as

Having spent a week in the Black Forest with Fiona it is a little depressing to be back in Leeds where the wine is a little less local, the views a little less mind blowing, and life generally just a little less exciting. /images/black_forest_water.jpg was here

I am feeling a little misunderstood as an individual, and given that in the near future I will be moving on to a bigger, badder, more exciting part of my life I thought that I'd go to the effort of clarifying a little about me.. I imagine I

I first met Mute in November 2011 on my first pushy whitewater kayaking trip in Scotland. I remember an epic conversation with him whilst pinned on a rock at the top of the Tilt. He dove into the river, asked me if I could roll, and pushed me off the

So I was browsing the internet when I came across a link to a Peter Pan pantomime in Manchester. I live in Leeds (dont stalk me), Manchester is close. I also like pantomimes. So one of the things I was never very good at was actually following through doing things.

Last Friday, bright and early Jamie, Paddy, Bryn, and I set off for Fort William, Scotland for a five day paddling adventure. We were staying in a caravan from 'Cuilcheanna Cottages' based in Onich. The caravan was lovely and the owners very hospitable. They even gave us Easter

On Thursday evening, Jack, Jamie, Vanessa, and I got in the car and headed down south to the illustrious Cheshire. Having spent the night at my house, and witnessing Jamie getting a Mawwdach-esque beatdown from my mother we headed off bright and early Friday morning to the Dee. Vanessa, being

Over the past month or two I have been actively working on the National Student Rodeo. I have been working on the online registration system, and the scoring system for the event. In November I was asked to create the website for the event. I did this, as can be

Yesterday Jack, Jamie, Mute, and myself headed down/across to North Wales to drop in on the Upper Tryweryn. Last year at the clubs 'Alps Training' I ran the upper graveyard section. Max didn't want us to run the rest of the graveyard because we had
