Life have put their image archive on Google, and there’s some pretty cool stuff.  The 60’s space stuff is amazing, this one in particular.

Had to run some errands before work so took a walk to the beach to see the snow.  I was amazed to see so many people about, it felt like a public holiday.  I guess it is really, what with our country’s inability to cope with extremes.

Tonight I am happy and excited like a child because it has snowed.  The excitement will be shortlived. When I actually have to venture out into the wilderness I will no doubt curse the cold weather, slippery pavements and rubbish UK infrastructure.  Oh well, tonight I will hold onto my childlike excitement.

This US field desk is amazing - shame it’s already been sold.

After months of various delays we finally took delivery of the first single coming out on Project Blue Book.  As you can see it’s on vinyl, and it will also be available on iTunes.  It’s not out till 2nd March, but you can check the tracks out and join the mailing list here.  Oh, if you join the mailing list you get a free track and access to the upcoming regular mixes The Simonsound will be producing.

I never use Screensavers.  But this HAL Project Screensaver makes me want to use them.

Do these pictures make your eyes moist, recalling your younger years when you dreamed of having one of these?

Simplicity is not the goal. It is the by-product of a good idea and modest expectations.

Technology gives people even more reason to feel paranoid. At least when writing a letter it was easier to blame the slow post. Now expectations are for a quick response to emails, facebook messages, twitters and texts. Everybody needs to slow down.
