So I'm being driven down the motorway and a van drives past. The van is some sort of courier for a furniture company. The address of said firm is '1 Blunder Street, Blackpool'. I see a variety of problems relating to credibility associated with such a

The phrase goes: "I am just going to jump in the shower" Jumping in the shower is inefficient. Why not stand in the shower, and wash yourself - that is the point of having a shower, and will allow you to get out in a more time efficient

On the night of the 1st January 2012 I had a weird, almost unbelievable experience. If it had happened a day earlier I would have said it was the strangest thing that happened to me in 2011. It did not however, and as such I have 362 days to top

Two evenings ago, I was looking at river levels and saw that the Swale amongst other things had been dancing around a nice level. Jack said he'd get me down the Swale before Christmas, I was having kayaking withdrawal... I made the proposal. The next morning Jack called

This Sunday the club headed to the Wharfe for a beginners club trip. I popped along to have a play with my new Werner carbon cranked Sherpas. They work. So we paddled the Wharfe - the bit with Conniston falls on it. It is reasonably flat with a few bumps,

Today, having not done much productive in terms of academic work this year, I decided to get on with my dissertation research outline. The domain name industry is one of those hidden gems - not much is known about it outside the industry, and there is not much literature relating

On Sunday I was manipulated into driving on a beginners/freshers trip with the club to the middle tees. Having never run the middle tees I was somewhat intrigued, and as it was a nice enough day it seemed like a great opportunity to get a little more practice in.

On Wednesday (19/10/2011) Jack, Jamie, Bryn and I headed out to Linton Falls on the River Wharfe for a bit of park and play fun. This was our second Wednesday trip as part of our Wonderful Wednesdays format :) The falls weren't particularly high, nor particularly low,

On Sunday a group of us headed up to the lakes with the university club. The intention was to run the Leven (which i'd never run before), but sadly the river dropped massively overnight. In the end we decided to run the Kent twice - the first time

As an economics student, I am having to come to grips with various definitions, and explanations for a variety of complex terminology. Everything I thought I understood (from a general 'life-knowledge' perspective) has now got an additional layer of complexity associated with it. University, and independent learning means
