G20 Sumit

Sunday, April 12th, 2009

Well, the G20 sumit wasn’t as big a deal for me as I would have liked it to be, not that I was trying to comit suicide by protester or anything, but I was not in the office close to the action.

To explain; in my previous post I mentioned that we were asked to work in a different office, away from the exchange, and wear casual clothing. Unfortunately due to the fact that I’m a contractor at work I don’t have a photo ID so I wasn’t allowed in the main building due to security and had to go to another one.

Anyway, on to the photos. There was a protest march which passed by one of the other work offices where I was and I’ve also shamelessly stolen pictures off twitter/twitpic. Oh there was another token turn out on the next day at the main office which I have photos of.

NB: Sorry, I realise I over hyped this!

First Post!

Friday, February 8th, 2008

I never get the first post in on Slashdot stories, I guess this isn’t exactly the same since it’s the first story but oh well…FIRST!

Anyway, if by some chance you stumble across this epic blog you’ll probably notice a flurry of postings in the next couple of weeks and then it will die off as a realise I don’t really want to tell the whole world what I’m doing.

Assuming that we get past the above stage and come to the second realisation that I’m an attention whore this blog will have the following uses:

- Documenting my attempts to get ready to travel to the UK
- Posting Random rants about things
- Stuff
