A house, an engagement party, graduation, a degree, New Designers in London, a trip to California, start a full time job, oh and plan a wedding. 2012 doesn't look too shabby.

What IS he up to now?

Blogging for me is a great way for me to keep everyone up to date with all the day-to-day bits I'm up to as well as the bigger aspects of my goings on.

V's up in Newcastle and I haven't blogged about it once!

This evening we both went out for the most amazing meal and are now
enjoying Margaritas in our favorite bar. She heads back on Sunday so
I'm making full use of the presious time we have together.

Off on vacation

Can't wait = )

Some flat mates didn't want to shell out for a TV licence

So I set up my 'second monitor' in the front room.

Shiny Design



A group project to design a device to aid the transport of water from one place to another possibly over unforgiving terrain.

It's cold outside...


... so I warmed my cockles with a large cup of coffee and tucked into a good book.
Then it dawned on me. You know those types that sit in Starbucks, with their Apple Macs, large posh coffee and a book. Occupying a table for as long as they can whilst sipping at their long since cold coffee. Today that was me... Please don't hate me

If you're interested the book I was reading was this. Thus explaining my super-human ability to read a book and use my laptop simultaneously

I only seem to be able to do one big post a week at the moment


Sorry for the poor quality image, but this has to be one of, if not the most sensational thing I have ever eaten! The meat is Kobe Wagyu beef. The cows are fed on beer and given massages daily. Getting this kind on burger in Knightsbridge London would cost you £621 (quotes the menu)!!! But me and my friend Martin were invited to eat there by another one of our friends from the course who just happens to be the head chef. Anyway... Amazing


Full fridge makes Sam a happy student.


Mmmm... very cheesy pasta bake. Nom nom nom...


I have to do this every time I go to the beach now


Went to a shopping center with Polly the other day, she had a staff meeting so I had a couple of hours to window shop and had to take a snap of this.

Tim Minchin

If you're not aware of his work search for it on YouTube.
Sadly V's work wouldn't give her the time off so I'm having to share my early birthday present with a friend. I think we're in for a good show.

Check out Dave's rack!!

It's Dave's birthday today so we're out celebrating at TGI Fridays

We all know that in a hurry, sticking a couple of bevies in the freezer is quick and effective way of getting stuck into a couple of frosty studs. But be warned. If you forget they are in there you'll end up with something that resembles a Carlsberg smoothie...

Mmm... Pizza

Not very exciting but dinner this evening consisted of a pizza base and whatever i had in the fridge to go on it, it was very yum

Fruit cravings...

I think the old expression
"Using a sledgehammer to crack a nut"
should be modernized to
"Using an 1100W blender to squeeze an orange"
