Cute Birthday Wishes
So for those of you who didn’t know, I turned 37 this year (no, seriously!). And little Sarah send me one of the best cards I got — now that I find myself on the wrong side of 35 🙂 Awww, bless! 🙂
SimpleDateFormat and Multiple Threads
I felt like I had to write this to spread the word a bit more about this little-known danger of one of the JDK classes: SimpleDateFormat. Used quite widely from what I can tell — who hasn’t written something like this: SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat(); df.format( new Date() );SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat(); df.format( […]
California, 2011
Since I’m in the process of (finally!) organizing my photos, I found these ones that I never got to upload — from last year (2011) on a business trip with Denis Lowe and Rowan Jacobson: at the time Cognitive Match was just opening their offices in Palo Alto so we turned up for 2 weeks […]
Kirkwood, Tahoe, 11-Feb-2012
Yet another weekend of snowboarding in Tahoe — Kirkwood this time! Luckily, Denis was not around to capture any of my falls — so you get just some pictures of the snow 🙂

Though bloody cold 🙂 And here’s the Tudor “residence”, at Oakwood, in Mountain […]

Snow in Constanta, Romania — 22/Jan/2012
And since I’m on the subject of snow, here’s a few photos which I should have put up a couple of weeks ago — my hometown in full winter: 22/Jan/2012:
Snow in London — Feb/2012
I missed the snow in London this year it seems, but Sarah made sure I got a bit of it 🙂
