Firstly, let's fill in some details... It's Tuesday 21st December, I'm sat in dunelm about to scoff this lot (see pic). I'm recovering from the worst case of flu I've ever had, there's about 2" of snow outside, thick and crisp and even.. plus another 6 forecast for later today.. And Friday's Christmas eve when ( hopefully!? ) we should be heading to Cardiff....
Here I am in the recently opened Spud-U-Like in St Davids. Had a good day today so far. Bus to the bay. Then a walk to Penarth. Coffee on the sea front then a quick look around the Ffoto gallery HQ at turner house. Bus back into town and here I am.. Once I've scoffed this I'll head back and give Liz's dad a hand finishing off the wall papering..
Well it wasn't the tastiest breakfast I've had this week but certainly the cheapest. £2.79 roll, hash brown and coffee! Free WiFi too, but pretty slow. Not bad really.
Now I'm off to catch the 12 o'clock showing of 'Skyline'.
For now..
Here I am, second day in Cardiff and I'm in Pret A Manger. What you see before you is a ham,cheese and mustard toastie + latté. And to be fair it was gorgeous.. Plus they have FREE WiFi.. sorted !
It's the 1st of November and I'm hiding round the corner, with the milk, waiting for a customer to clear off... what's the betting he doesn't...
Here's Liz and me, sat in Starbucks Hereford.. taking it easy.. as you do on a Sunday. Interesting display of local photos here. Might consider putting some of mine in here...
Here I am sat in the new Dunelm cafe on opening day.. Not bad.. nice layout. The coffee's more than my usual Sainsburys dredge. But also this is not dredge.. Whether or not it becomes a regular spot remains to be seen...
Umm... this time last year I was feeling pretty ropey from what I can remember.. Up until this weekend that was the worst of our 4 wedding anniversary doos..
.. in the excellent Cafe lounge on Wellfield road. Had a good day today. Managed to get in Scott Pilgrim vs the world and Salt. I think Sp vs Tw was better. Finish this coffee then its back to Lady smith road for tea.. and its only 6.15 ... fantastic !
Well its day 2 of my 2 days off and I'm sat in Morrisons in malvern. What you see in this photo is a lame looking Latte and equally lame looking Battenburg. What's surprising is that they both taste quite nice.. Any hoo better scoff em down and meet up with the girls...
Here I am in the illustrious Welsh capital enjoying a coffee. It's a glorious day, the suns out and I'm not at work... what more could you want.. oh, and the latest news is there's gonna be a Hooters next door to the cinema.. Ummm, not quite sure if that's going to work out. But you've gotta laugh..
Well started off with a coffee in Waterloo Gardens, then lunch in Muffin Break. After a diversion to the Apple store caught Toy Story 3. Quick look around town and now I'm taking a leisurely stroll home while listening to Moby on my Ipod... and its only 6 o'clock..
Here I am sat, waiting for the 58 bus to take me into town.. Where I'll check my photos at the old library and then catch Predators with Graham. A perfect evening.. Who knows we may grab a beer..
It's 8.20am and me and Laura are on the train! Photomarathon opening night tonight. Should be fun.
Well we've just spent a fortune at IKEA and now I'm sat in the back of the van, juggling a wardrobe, tv unit, table and six chairs.. and its bloody hot!!
Here's an attractive shot of me being smuggled in the back of a transit van. We're off to IKEA!
Ummm, well didn't get to see Ironman 2. Ended up heading back into the centre instead. Saw Prince Of Persia in the end... which was ok. Next month's gonna have a better selection..
Just stumbled on another new cafe in Cardiff. This one claims to have free WiFi but I can't pick it up sat where I am..!
Coffee's... ok. Nothing to write home about. Lots of comfee chairs though. Would I drink here again? Maybe..
Anyway, when I've finished this gonna head down the bay and catch Ironman 2 with a bit of luck. Hope its worth it cos I'm gonna have to pay for this one...
Here I am at the station waiting for a bus to Newport. Second week in a row I've caught the train/bus..
Fair doos, this was taken out of the window of a moving coach.. I'm heading back to Hereford on the bus (as there's work on the Newport - Hereford line!?).
It was my second Photomarathon yesterday and another excellent one at that. I feel a bit more confident this time but, bearing in mind I was number 436, I don't hold any hope of winning anything. Still, I had a fantastic day. Roll on next year...
Phew, I made it. Relaxing train ride, couple of beers with Graham tonight then Photomarathon tomorrow. Fantastic !
.. so I decided to take some photos (as I do) . Here's one of me on the way home after a trip to the woods... nice.
Here's Paz sat on my lap on a cold bank holiday Sunday. Don't have the heart to move him but I'm starving... there's gonna be tears.
Here I am sat in Asda with a copy of avatar. It seems like only yesterday when I last saw the film and I'm sure its still on general release.. This coming out will now hit any cinemas still showing it..
Any how it was only £8 so I thought why not?

Well I'm half way through and so far its been excellent. The dinner was particularly nice. Took a wander around the bay.. And now its part 2..
This is more like it. I'm sat in a little cafe called 'Good To Go', down Cardiff bay. After I've finished this I'm gonna head round the corner to the Norwegian Church and check out this Ffotogallery thingy... Tidy.
Here I am in the Juno Lounge, Wellfield Road, probably my favorite coffee bar in the world.. chillin' as I do. After I've supped this little baby I'm gonna pick up a Chinese and head back.. Tomorrow I've got the Ffotogallery Seminar thingy down the bay.. does it get any better than this?? I don't think so...
Haven't been here for a while. Still busy as ever. Gone for the traditional Poached egg on toast... On its way...
It's a gorgeous Spring day (for a change) and I'm gonna head out to see my grandparents with these flowers. Maybe grab a cup of tea..
I thought this was quite apt, what with seeing Clash of the Tit yesterday. Here is a statue in the Cardiff museum of Perseus holding Medusa's head.. Who'd of thought it, me in a museum.!!
Sat in a comfy chair in Starbucks watching the world go by.. plus they've got Led Zepplin 'stairway to heaven' playing... I could stay here all day...
Here I am in Cardiff once again for the Easter weekend. Gonna meet up with Graham and grab a coffee..
Here I am in Cineworld, Cardiff watching the trailers. In a minute Alice In Wonderland (2D)..
I'll let you know if its any good.. The new Dr Who trailer was..
My favourite place to be.
I've just been to the Apple Store and they very kindly replaced my faulty headphones . So now I'm back in stereo. Plus to top it all the Costa Coffee on the ground floor can pick up the Apple stores wi-fi.. How cool is that..
Well its been on the cards for ages and the bike needed it! Handy kit that Muc Off..
Is it me or does that coffee look dodgy to you? I think its the dairystix UHT cream that does it... well, it tastes as crap as usual...
