Pattaya Days Gone

An ordinary backup from an extraordinary website

Girls on tracks

Back in October, she who must be obeyed’s young sister was dragged to various locations to be photographed. One of those locations was a railway track:

Five candles

My browser has a drop down list of the latest headlines from the BBC. Useful for watching out for the latest in world events such as “Russia warns over Korean tensions” and “UN chief rejects Ivorian pullout” and “motorist hurt as car leaves road”. WTF?

This festive nonsense has to stop

And god said, let there be (low) light

Following a stinging rebuke from Billy regarding my entirely reasonable recent focus (sic) on camera equipment, I made a vow to myself that I would not discuss same in this publication until 2011. And I won’t.

Yours for $2000

A visit to Billy’s site reveals he has put his blog into a valuation program which rather gloatingly came back and told him his website was worth $52.95 (and I have inflated the valuation somewhat because I don’t wish to embarrass him).

Part of his problem is that he continues to make his site password protected. This was necessary when he was employed and slagging off his employer on a regular basis; but now he has retired they can hardly stop his pension if he is rude to them (although I suppose they could have him shot). The other part of his problem is that he spends far too much time wittering on about golf, rather than covering interesting subjects like, say, camera equipment.
