Just had a go on one of James Dyson’s new “airblade” hand dryers.
Very cool. More later.

UPDATE: The Airblade.
I was reading Mr. Zhisou’s blog where he mentions the Airblade. When I mentioned it to Mrs. tyger she said that there was one at the Meadowhall shopping centre, Sheffield (South Yorkshire). Yesterday we [...]

Why can’t fucking tractors stay off the road during rush hour?
Bastards. Sent from my BlackBerry.

live from the sick bed

I have been struck down with a 24hr bug, which has really screwed my diary for the next couple of days. Still planning to make the journey to Wolverhampton tomorrow, but I had a full day planned today, too.
Very annoying, very annoying indeed.

….decides to put major road works on the main road to Skegness (hiss spit) in August?
I give up on this country. Seriously.

starbucks, shmarbucks

I once wrote bitching about the new Starbucks in Newark; it’s apparent that I have become a sell-out, as I sit here drinking an Americano Venti Double Shot.
I have my reasons. It’s raining. I don’t have a coat. It was the closest.
Pah! Forget it, I’m a filthy sell-out. Happy?

On the road

I have a long drive to Leeds and back this afternoon, several clients to see this morning, and a social event (network, network, network!) tonight.
Needless to say, there will be no serious posting today. Have a nice weekend.

jasp

(In a kiddies play centre in Lincoln. The boys are playing, I’m reading the Sundays.)
Not sure what’s going on at The Observer; I’m astonished that Jasper Gerard’s column is still going. Does this guy understand his readership at all?
Can’t link from this cell, but dig out today’s column, then look for the piss-poor unemployment whine. [...]

the legal beagle

Currently buried under a raft of advertising contracts. Trying to cover all my bases.
Oh, and drinking some rather strange detox tea. Tastes like Dr. Stuart’s, but it’s from Carrefour (the French hypermarket). Poleo-Menta it’s called. Thinking I should create a tea-themed blog.

Pirates!

Just about to sit down to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
There is a 15min intermission half-way through. If it’s rubbish, then I’m going for a sleep in the car during the second half.

Big news!
I have configured a new plugin to publish posts via email, which means I can post directly from this BlackBerry… i.e. On the move: LIVE FROM THE FIELD!
Cool, eh?
More on the plugin later, but readers should be aware also that the BlackBerry 8800 has no spell checker!
Anyway, this should mean that I can post [...]
