It appears months, not days have now passed since my last blog. Rather than suddenly try to blog everything that has happened since my last post, I thought a summary of what has kept me away from this page would work better than a list of unfounded excuses as to why I have not kept this blog updated as much as I should have done.
Moves: 1
Have moved from Andover in Hampshire to the city of Bristol.
Life Changing Experiences: 1
Whilst on holiday in France, I asked Rachel to marry me. Thankfully for me, she said yes! We're arranging an April 2008 wedding, which will be requiring a lot of effort to organise.
Long Commutes: 70
I have been getting up at 4.30am each morning to do the two and a half hour each way commute to the office. The absence of a decent laptop battery has caused me to be unable to use the journey time for updating this blog, before you ask why that time has not been put to better use!

I’ve had some time off this past week, which has meant I have had a chance to relax and reflect on what has been an eventful few months. I thought it would be a good point to blog again, even if it is to point out the things that have happened, the books I have read and the music being listened too at the moment. They will undoubtedly have an influence on what I write and the person I am becoming.
Depending on how good my writing is during these next few months, you may or may not detect the influences of these factors at work in my life in what I enter on this site.
I just didn’t want you to think that I’d been wasting my time.
