They think Jaygo has got Gradenigo’s syndrome – as a knock on effect from the Mastoid infection. It’s fully treatable without surgery from what I understand. It’s an infection of the area behind the eyes (I think) causing double vision and his vertigo symptoms are back. Yesterday he had a CT scan and today another MRI scan. He is back… Read more →
Firstly – thank you all for the support, kind words, thoughts and offers of help – we really really appreciate. He is doing a bit better today – he has been sleeping pretty solid but he managed to keep down his first drink in several days (He’s been having fluid replacement through a drip). Still on the antibiotics in large… Read more →
Lots going on this weekend that was a range of fun. Eirene and I went to see Mark Thomas on Friday night at the Harrogate Theatre. Very good. Funny and fascinating, poignant and passionate. He’s been on a walk around The West Bank the wall / fence between Palestine and Israel. The situation out there has been terrible for years and although… Read more →
I’ve just had one of my photos curated / collated as part of a gallery called “the great outdoors” A nicely put together collections that’s just reminded me about the old friend I’ve been missing recently called The Great Outdoors. (mine is a photo called ‘brothers‘ and appears third in the collection as it currently stands)
SQUID, SQUID BASE, SQUID LOC, originally uploaded by James Mulryan. So, does anyone have any idea what these are referring to? It’s on the west bound A59 just north of Skipton, North Yorkshire – as per the marker on this map. We drive past it every day, it’s been there for months and it’s really starting to bug me now….

combo, originally uploaded by DragonDrop. For the next 10 years, these guys are going to own a document called a passport that has this photo in. Dear future self – take a photo of these guys in 10 years from now and present in the same way.
So I’m sat round out our friends are invited round the dinner and I was handed a device called and Ipad with I was playing later noticed there was a thing on it called dragon diction which is what I’m using now to hopefully dictate this blog and then once recorded it will transcribe my words into actual text file… Read more →
FIRE : Boxing Day 2010 – timelapse, originally uploaded by DragonDrop. Here’s a A time lapse of set up, mid party and last orders from our boxing day extravaganza party. It was officially a good laugh. We had two floors – this being the downstairs party. Superb music from the DJs, brass and percussionists, top atmosphere. Upstairs was also super… Read more →
A traditional North Yorkshire Mummers Play I saw a world that I didn’t know existed last night. Whilst sat having a quiet jar with a friend in the (Graeme) Swan on The Stray public house, we were ‘warned’ that there would shortly be a performance and we may not like it on the grounds that it may be “a bit… Read more →
BOXING DAY EXTRAVAGANZA , originally uploaded by DragonDrop. Quite excited about this. Got all sorts going on. I’m going to be quite busy. Conga playing, taking photo’s, generally milling around and I’m doing 2 DJ sets – one early doors – chilled out walk in music, the other a funk and rare groove type thing upstairs. See you there!
3D60 sound… will it catch on? First there was mono. A single point source of sound. Then there was stereo. You’d think this was the end game as far as sound production goes, as we’ve only got two ears, but thanks to the shape of our ears and the fact they are positioned at slightly different heights on our head… Read more →
Wrapping up Felix’s birthday week I made a Matt Spesh once we’d got home and settled back in for a day. One of the most viewed pictures I’ve ever taken (largely due to the fact that flickr blog used it) was of a very similar scene. My fryups are world famous.
Some tourist attractions feel like a glossed over, sanitised version of the real thing. Often millions are spent on audio visual this, interactive that and often loose a bit of sight of what the main event is. This is certainly NOT the case with Kelvedon Hatch ‘Secret’ Nuclear Bunker, which we visited yesterday. Kelvedon Hatch was built as an RAF… Read more →

I know from my site stats that most of the readers of this blog are very fortunate. I’d be surprised if any one reading this post would have any problem finding a drink of clean water within a few seconds. We take clean water for granted. It’s a sad fact that 900 million people rely on unsafe drinking water largely… Read more →
