Today, my sister-in-law Natalie set up a website for her new company Duff Doodles. You can find it at www.duffdoodles.com. She does some pretty good postcards which we’re going to make available for sale.

Great article in the Times today about Jeremy Paxman’s interview with Tony Blair today. Here’s an excerpt –

“…As he squared up to Jeremy Paxman for a fifth-anniversary-in-office interview Tony Blair strained to sound firm, like Russell Crowe in Gladiator — (“My name is Maximus Blairus, Commander of the New Labour Armies, father of a maligned Cabinet, husband to a pilloried wife, and I will have my vengeance”)…”

The Times has just gone to a subscription model so unless you’re reading this today, this today you won’t be able to read the article for free at The Times Online. This move by the Times makes sense, but it’s still sad that the days of free web content from the major media companies are coming to a close 😦

On the Ben Lawers motorway

Me cold. Very cold.

… and at 3.32pm…

On the top of Sgaith Chuill, exhausted (thanks Jonny)

Sums up Sunday – map reading in the freezing mist on Beinnn nan Imirean

… and again

In the sun at last!

Andy S in the sun

A really really cold Andy S
