Bye to Yanet.dk

2007/02/17 22:29

Today I received an email from Yanet.dk, the company hosting this website and my email: Hej!

Happy birthday to me!

2007/02/08 23:23

It’s my 35th birthday today! I got some really cool presents, including a new blender, a pasta machine with motor and two ties, but the best bit was that Marcel and Charlotte baked me a beautiful birthday cake!

Wee milkman

Wee milkman Originally uploaded by viralbus. Although Pudge still loves his mum’s milk (dooda as she calls it), he doesn’t really like Aptamil, but recently we found out that he likes breakfast milk (extra-fat milk with 5% fat compared to the 3.5% in full-fat milk). Actually, he seems to like it more and more – now he doesn’t even wait for me to find him a glass!

My niece

2007/02/17 20:50

I finally got a decent photo of my newborn niece. She was born on Wednesday 14th February at 19:39 hours, at which time she weighed 3480 g and was 53 cm long. Her name is likely to be Ursula, with Sulle as a nickname. I’ve no idea whether her surname will be Widmann, Rasmussen, or both.

LibDems for Scottish independence

2007/02/16 19:11

Although I’m a member of the LibDems, I support Scottish independence. I actually used to be a member of the SNP, but I disagreed with some of their policies (on fisheries, for instance), and I decided that I’d rather be in a party where I agree with the ideology and most policies, even if I disagree with the party on such a major topic. Given all of this, I got quite annoyed by Nicol Stephen’s hard stance on independence (he’ll only support a referendum if there’s a […]

Morbror!

2007/02/14 21:22

Min mor ringede for lidt siden for at fortælle mig, jeg er blevet morbror, idet Miriam her til aften har født en pige. Jeg kender hverken vægt, højde eller andre detaljer, men jeg blogger igen senere – med et billede, hvis jeg har et til den tid.

Tequila Sunrise

2007/02/10 01:53

We’ve just come home from the HarperCollins New Year Party at the Marriott Hotel. As usual, we got a free welcome drink, really nice food (steak in a haggis crust among other things) and three drink vouchers. Armed with my vouchers, I went to the the bar which seemed larger than my entire flat. “Can I have a Tequila Sunrise?” I asked. “Sorry Sir, but we don’t have that brand of tequila. Do you want a Jose Cuervo instead?” the barmaid asked. (According to her name tag, […]

del.icio.us

2007/02/08 22:27

For ages I’ve been really annoyed about the del.icio.us link on Flickr. Today I finally followed it and created myself a del.icio.us account. So what is it? It’s basically a way to store your bookmarks/favourites on a webpage that you can write to from all computers you’re using, and that other people can see, with tags and other ways of indexing and searching. It seems pretty useful so far.

Useless information

2007/02/02 00:20

Some months ago, I bought a copy of The Independent and I got a promotional book for free with it: Trace Your Family History, a shortened version of the Teach Yourself book. The book obviously has lots of information about how to find out about births, marriages and deaths in the various parts of the British Isles, but more surprisingly, it also covers Canada and the US. How useful is that? As far as I know, while many Americans and Canadians have British ancestry, very few people […]
