A joint project between my brother an me as we ate our picnic in the Japenese garden in Nantes at the weekend:
Some cherry blossom
Some lands in my waiting cup
Cherry blossom cup
Hmm, puts me in the mood for a beef haiku.
Personal Projects

I seem to be gathering up personal project sites to do “when I get time”. First there was pspflashgaming.com (which still needs loads of work done on it), then Jake and me agreed to make a sister site, wiiflashgaming.com for flash games aimed at the wii.
As if these two aren’t enough to fill all available time, i’ve just bought mixcdswap.com as a potential project for a port of the “mix cd swap experiment” group on facebook.com by Tim Hayward.
To be continued….

As i write this, i should be near Calais. I should be sat in a nice comfy chair, reading my book with a gin in my hand. I should be sat on the eurostar.
I am, however, sat in my friends flat in Paris. Turns out that if you get on the wrong metro line by accident, it takes a really long time to get where you are meant to be going. Turns out that getting to the station 3 minutes before your eurostar train leaves isn’t early enough.
If this wasn’t bad enough, on my way to Paris I managed to leave my passport in Cambridge. I didn’t remember until I had passed through security and was stood in front of the passport control. Ended up getting into Paris roughly 5 hours late.
The one good thing in this plethora of poor organisation is eurostar – they have changed my ticket in both directions for no extra charge. I even managed to get to cambridge and back to london for free, using my old ticket. I love being jammy.
Serioustly though, only me :oP
