Apologies, readers, that I’ve not been keeping up with the blog this week. The start of the World Cup, along with a concerted 4 days doing painting and decorating at home (which is exhausting if you’re not used to physical exertion believe me!) has kept me away from the keyboard unfortunately. Things are back to […]
A Note On Advertising
I just wanted to raise something that I need to get off my chest… As you may have noted, I’ve very recently removed the small Google ad that used to appear on the top right of the blog. Although I’ve been writing the Londoneer for quite some time, I’m still nowhere near the payment threshold […]
Eyjafjallajokull is now Tweeting…
I’m not very happy at the moment, as I’m not going to be able to get to Ireland this weekend – Ryanair have cancelled most flights across Europe until Monday afternoon next week. While I’ve been twiddling my thumbs here waiting for news, I’ve been keeping an eye on the #ashtag that’s appeared on Twitter, […]

Ok, just a quick post to let you know that I am visiting Budapest from Friday of this week. I’m going to be looking forward to visiting Castle Hill, Heroes’ Square and, when my feet are finally worn out, relaxing at the famous 15th century Kiraly Baths. I’ll be posting lots of photos and observations […]
Happy New Year 2010
I hope all of my readers have a really good year – I’ll be travelling to Northern Ireland again soon, Europe again in March and I’m sure I’ll squeeze in Germany (and Austria M!) somewhere too. Concerts with Laura Veirs and Peter Gabriel beckon in the spring… Being a Google fan I’ll leave you with […]
