So....it's been about 5 months since i last posted and i'm now living on the south coast of England. It feels good to be home again. A lot has happened though. Amy & I split up just after xmas, it was ultimately a mutual decision, we just drifted apart, the distance was a real killer. Shit happens, i guess, but things move on. It's a clean slate on all fronts, and i need to just get on with things now. One of the most annoying things in the last few months has been confined to ...
After a blip in my relationship a few weeks ago (don't worry, it's all sorted now), i made a decision that i guess has been a long time coming. I'm fed up of this house.

For my penultimate day there, though, we decided to have a day out in Central London.

Still, we went via Tube, Sherif taking full advantage of the free travel he gets, and me…well…stuck with an Oyster card. By the time we reached hammersmith, Sherif was grumbling about food, and mentioned KFC. Seeing as i know where KFC is on King Street, ...
Okay, its about that time that i said this again, for the benefit of the new people around here: If you post something other than a blog here, it's going to be deleted. I've seen people trying to sell their stuff, and using this area as a space to post technical questions. There are proper sections for that. This section is for blogs, and blogs only. If we see you trying to sell stuff outside the classifieds section, or posting a technical question, it's ...
