Nothing like a lazy sunday afternoon to cleanup and backup one’s blog which means I’m back on Google index. Thank god for WordPress.

Know where you live and where to eat
July 19, 2009In order to force myself in taking a vacation, (the last time was 2003 which involved a trip backpacking in Spain with my best friend at the time. Unfortunately our friendship never recovered but that’s another story.) I’ve been wasting time trying to find the good places to enjoy significantly fantastic food in the UK. So I’ve essentially been hand-Googling the references from a weekend special edition of the Independant that I simply can’t find online. My intention is to mash it up with the Guardian’s special on Summer Pubs that was published that same weekend. Funnily enough none of this is actually linked or geo-located. I’m pretty sure there’s a much geekier and efficient way of doing this, but it kills the time in the nicest of ways…
Enjoy!

The convent and the airport.
July 4, 2009Nick posted this promotional video for IDII, made in 2004 or 5. It’s been so long but seems so fresh in my mind still. Like a dream you can’t wake up from.
Southern life
July 4, 2009Just because I really can’t help writing, I’ve started a personal blog on life “south of the river” called Yes this really is in Brixton
Disclaimer: this one has nothing to do with work, design or otherwise and will probably only make sense if you’re a friend and live or know or are curious about London. Enjoy!
In Wired UK this month
July 3, 2009
I’m featured in the Rising Stars section of the August edition of Wired UK (page 23), wearing attire that I wouldn’t normally be caught dead in, but hey, they were after a “feminine look”, and a girl simply cant say no to wearing 700 quid Ferragamo shoes for 15 minutes (only to end up with the photo being cropped of course).
Happy now?
