Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

Location: Didcot, Oxon, United Kingdom

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

EBay

I'm not sure if I'm spending far too much on EBay or not. I've been trying to replace my CD collection and am buying about 2 CDs a week for £3-4 each. All from a list I made of things I really wanted on CD and thus in my mp3 collection, so I can justify it to myself. Always dangerous - having to justify something to yourself...

And the mp3 collection is creeping up towards 15,000 songs (actually 14,493 at the moment). It would take 41 days, 16 hours, 36 minutes and 14 seconds to play the lot back to back, by which time I would have bought some more anyway.

My iPod only takes a quarter of the entire collection!

Sorry, I appear to be rambling.

I love it when you get statistical.
