I know there are a few of you that pop in to visit this 365 blog so please change your bookmark for the site. I got sick of this version of wordpress not allowing you to embed different media types so have moved my blog to infinitely more useable posterous site. The whole site has been exported so you can still look back at all the posts. The address for the new site is a little easier as well – shauns365.com

Day 148 – Bloody Tesco
As part of a project for a course I am doing, I used my phone to compile a video journal of the my shopping / lunch trip to Oxford. All was going well til we ventured into Tesco. After videoing my choosing of veg, picking up some meat I was suddenly accosted by a member of staff in a fashion not to dissimilar to being accused of shoplifting. It transpires that videoing is not allowed on tesco property – something to do with it being private property so despite my pointing out what I as doing it for and the educational aspect of the project, they asked me to delete the clip.
Day 147 – Farmer’s market
It’s the farmer’s market down by the shops today so lots of lovely fresh veg and time to stock up on goat’s cheese and a jar of red pepper chutney.
Day 146 – Rain’s back
After what seemed like weeks without rain (it has rained a little bit but not much), today was torrential downpour after torrential downpour – it was so heavy at times that I recorded the sound of the rain hitting the windows so that’s todays thing.
Day 145 – Mold
I ordered this chocolate mold a few weeks ago so now time to try it and see if I can make my own sweets…results later no doubt.
Day 144 – Book
I was taking this photo for use on a course I am doing and thought it’d make the photo of the day. I’ve this book 21 years – it’s a copy of LOTR that is printed on India paper (bit like tissue paper) so being a clumsy bugger I have never dared read it. A quick google shows it’s got a growing value as well not that I’d sell it.
Day 143 – Courgette
Yay, the monster courgette is flowering, this is the first one to open but there are clearly lots more about to come out. Now where’s , my recipe for fried courgette flower?
Day 141 – Hotel
In Dublin but it’s hard to leave the hotel. It is rather a swish hotel room and bigger than at least two of the flats I lived in in Prague. Lovely room, lovely hotel and a great Irish breakfast.
Day 140 – Odd things you see
Off on me travels again, Dublin this time. While waiting for the bus, I was minding me own business when I saw the glass on top of the shelter. Well, that will make for a different photo, I thought so here it is:
