My club, Newcastle United, right now is a joke and the laughing stock of English football and rightly so. Harsh words maybe, but i’m sure many other toon fans would agree with me.

The thing is though, i still love my club and i’m still a proud geordie and Newcastle fan. But this summer i really have been pushed to my limits, and first the first time i’m not 100% sure i will be renewing my season ticket for the coming season. continue reading »

I’m a gadget freak and proud of it. I love playing with the newest technology and i know most of the time when i buy a new gadget i don’t actually need it, but that doesn’t stop me.

I love the idea of a really small and light computer that you can carry around with you and for them not to cost that much.

Two games for the PS3 i’m looking forward to are Modern Warfare 2 and Gran Turismo 5.

I have a great book by Jeff Heads called, North East England Panoramas and its made up entirely of amazing Panoramic Photos from locations throughout the North East of England, From North Northumberland to Teesdale and Teesside and everything in between.

My particular favourite part of the book, is North Northumberland where Jeff Heads takes some spectacular shots of Lindisfarne Castle, Bamburgh Castle and  Alnwick Castle. continue reading »

I’m a huge fan of the iPod Touch. I have a 2nd Generation version and i use it on a daily basis, but like any tech geek i’m always looking forward to what might come in the next version.

You could say i am a bit of a freak of Nature when it comes to the iPhone, and by that i mean i dont have one. In fact i dont have any kind of mobile phone, and thats probably why i am such a fan of the iPod Touch, as it has just about all the features of the iPhone, but just without the phone, and thats perfect for me. continue reading »
