This mural is dedicated to the memory of the soldiers who fought in World War One. It is interesting to see a public display like this as many
of the WWI war memorials are hidden or stuck away in some forgotten corner.

Fw: At JFK Airport

Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike. We landed at JFK ahead of schedule and took the shuttle bus to Grand Central Station. That way we could see everything as we travelled into the city. The Ticket guy sold us two $13 dollar tickets and we got on. We were followed by an obnoxious Oxford Don type with his blue checked Land shirt and his comfy corduroys but worse was his Australian girlfriend who spoke with such a high pitched whine it sounded as if she had been gargling on nail varnish remover.

A complex project so I hope the company own either Microsoft Project , an open source alternative or a laddie with a pencil and notepad. Yesterday was so quiet that The Squirrel suggested that I should take some photographs of the decant apartment's kitchen. We...

Heavy Duty has an audience.. I have sold copies of Heavy Duty in Kindle. I should mention that I deleted my Facebook account after about four months as I found it utterly pointless. I haven't suffered any ill effects from eliminating all things social network from my life apart from G+. In other news, I haven't completely checked to see if SkinUp is fully Kindle compliant with a toc file, an ncx file and a main file, but sometime this week I intend to set about it. Perhaps I might produce an Halloween edition.
