Wandsworth Witterings: April 2007
http://theoreticalheuristics.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 28 April, 2007. On the way out I watched:. About 10 minutes of Borat, which was rubbish. He's not some radical free agent jester-type turning the mirror on society, he's just an irritating tosspot. About 10 minutes of History Boys, which does not translate well from the stage. In fact, it was dull. The whole of something called Employee of the Month, with Jessica Simpson. Jiggle jiggle. On the way back I watched:. 26 April, 2007.

Wandsworth Witterings: November 2007

The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 30 November, 2007. New York New York. Ooh, I just love the Plaza! I was puzzled to find that the New York Times is a very thin newspaper with mystifying frontpage stories - the one on Tuesday was about how Muslim girlguides in the US found they got less stick if they wore their girlguide sash over their traditional garb. This is a front page story? A bit of a slow news day, was it, lads? Very glad to be home. Posted by FBT at 11:24 pm.

The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 31 October, 2007. Got into a conversation with the woman sitting next to me who lives in Marylebone while her husband lives in Surrey. She is one of these retirees who has no intention of going gently into that good night. Posted by FBT at 11:54 pm. 27 October, 2007. Get Mo's teacher to fill in ADHD questionnaire. Sign Larry up for riding lessons. Buy tennis racquet so I can knock about with Mo on the common. Posted by FBT at 8:59 am.

The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 31 December, 2007. I am in bed with a cold. The rest of them have hard-heartedly gone out for a walk on the common, as if to rub in their state of rude good health. I am keeping myself entertained by watching the birds' stealth attacks on our bedroom window birdfeeder. They do not stay more than the 2 seconds it takes them to grab a seed and get the hell out of there. What are they afraid of? Larry: How did you get in then? Went to t...

Wandsworth Witterings: June 2007
http://theoreticalheuristics.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 20 June, 2007. Had a lovely long weekend as I took Monday off work. This was the weekend we were supposed to be going to Kyoto in, but bailed because of all the moving stress and I think it was a good decision. LSS sent out our change of address e-mail to all and sundry, and so many people wrote back saying, What, no leaving drinks? Posted by FBT at 1:08 pm. 13 June, 2007. Tee-hee. We have some delegates in town for a conference ...

http://theoreticalheuristics.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 31 August, 2007. Sorting through our old stuff last night and found a letter from Lammy Hippy As Was, written on 30 June 1997, with a newspaper clipping re the handover. We left HK on the 10th anniversary of the handover, so it all seems very resonant. This is a little piece of history! Posted by FBT at 8:07 am. 30 August, 2007. Help, we are broadband-less at the moment, until Tiscali deigns to connect us (10 working days! I wanted t...

Wandsworth Witterings: September 2007
http://theoreticalheuristics.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
The Spiritual Home of the Urban Elite (c) Experian Business Strategies. 26 September, 2007. They were collecting for something called Haven House Children's Hospice at Canary Wharf station today. The lady stood forlornly there with her bucket while hordes of people charged past her through the doors to the escalators. I backtracked to put a couple of quid in her bucket, so that she would not go away thinking that City workers' reputation for being a bunch of rich selfish pigs was well-deserved. Dentist a...
