I thought I’d never live to see this, but in Los Gatos a couple of weeks ago, I’ve seen my own name used as a brand name! No idea what that shop is selling (was too busy trying to find a bar that was goddam open on Easter Sunday 🙂 ) but the conclusion to […]
Unfortunately my BlackBerry’s camera didn’t help here but you can see on the street in the near distance is a red phonebox — looked to me identical to the London ones! Was waiting for Dr Who to pop out of it … but 10 minutes later I got bored and went back in the bar […]

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 🙂
And on the subject of USA/UK, here’s an interesting comparison — this is what my garden looked like back in London: Astonishingly, despite popular belief, these pictures were actually taken in January (2012) — and yes, it was a (slightly) sunny day!
