Blogging has been neglected - Twitter, I hold you responsible!

November 23rd, 2008

Blogs have been neglected lately and it is all Twitters fault.

Twitter has taken micro-blogging to a whole new level of interactivity and moved towards web2.0 in ways not thought possible at the start of 2008.

I am on Twitter as @getnoticed - hence the rebranding of my blog

In the words of Twitter Whore - Follow Me!

Congrats Kiwi League Team and All Blacks

November 23rd, 2008

Even though I have been in the UK for nearly 7 years I have still not lost my support for NZ sports teams - who are undisputedly amongst the best (if not the best) in the world.

We excel at Rugby, we’re not too bad at Cricket, top notch at Yachting and have pretty good Equestrian and Dressage teams, world class Golfers and Triathletes.

For a country of less than 5 million people we do bloody well!

Yesterday the Kiwi League Team did us proud with a win over Australia to take the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.

The All Blacks demolished Wales to get one step closer to a Northern Hemisphere Grand Slam in the 2008 Autumn Internationals

I’m looking forward to the next game against a bruised and battered England team.

We have snow!

November 23rd, 2008

So far this winter it has snowed in October (first time since 1934 for my area of London) and in November.

December could be a cold month and the odds have been shortened at the bookies for a White Christmas too.

With 2 trips to Germany planned in December I am pretty confident the landscape will be white at some point in our journey.

I’m now hoping we have enough snow to build a snowman, something I could not do in childhood, living in a country that had bbq’s for xmas and a trip to the beach after lunch!
