It has only taken me all weekend non-stop to get this thing up and customised to a point where I am happy, but it’s done. I have used a WordPress theme and done some hardcore customising including integrating a tonne of plugin. So I am now all web2.0 socialised!
The photos on the right side are from my Europe trip and are static at the moment, I plan to do more research and write something that can feed these from my Facebook or Flickr account.
If anyone has any comments please let me know. Leyton I know you must have a million changes you can recommend! 
Ohh yeah I have managed all this because I have replaced my stolen laptop. Better CPU, more RAM and a bigger HDD ….for £30 less than the original, thank you crack-heads!.

Roman Baths - Bath
The weekend just gone I finally got out of London and visited Bath, a town just outside London (about 1.5hrs on the train). It’s a historical Roman Bath city with “The best preserved Roman architecture”. It was a really nice place but as I don’t have a camera due to it being fuking stolen all I have is the above photo from Wikipedia …although it is probably a thousand times better than one I would have taken. Maybe this is how I can fill the rest of my blog, google image search and wikipedia …soo much cheaper!
Anyway Bath was awesome, I went with a heap of friends and after the sights we got trashed at cocktail bars and then went to a pub for dinner. The place, entire town turned into a meat market after dark though with slappers and knobs out everywhere. I learned later on that there are Universities all around Bath and this is were the students come to drink
*Good news on the photo/robbery front, Flickr had most of my trip backed up so I have everything up to but not really including (only 2 photos) of Madrid. I can redo all my London photos but I am missing Madrid, Rome, Athens and Corfu Island

So got home from work yesterday opened the door with my keys to find my laptop, ipod, Fuji camera and my prized Canon 300D Digital SLR all gone.
Some crackhead had broken into my place and stole all my shit!
Well maybe not a crackhead, keys were used so I assume it was an ex-tenant or someone who got keys cut at some stage in the past. Either way now I have to deal with making an insurance claim back in Australia and trying to get everything replaced. The downside and I mean real downside is I lost all my Europe photos as they were backed up onto the laptop.
The flickr account which I setup stopped working while I was travelling so they are not all there, I do think some are so I will report back.
Really pissed right now though.

Lost Pidgeon
Last week while shopping at Carnaby St in London I saw this posted on a pole outside a shop…hilarious.
Other then that I haven’t been up to much, been working a fair bit and still loving it heaps. Still haven’t managed to get out of London since I got here really but that should change soon (as the bank balance starts to build up again).
Have booked accommodation and flights to Oktoberfest now so that’s 100%, ended up staying at some camping grounds with a few other people so that will be interesting when drunk to say the least.
Rob, one of my friends from AUS is planning on heading over early next year for a little while so I am pretty excited about that, will be able to show someone around and get on the piss a lot more.
Oh yeah go Australia in the Olympics!!!

Nightsky in South London last night.
Quick Update:
Last night was pretty stormy and today I found a heap of photos from around England and thought it would be a nice post. Reminds me of when I was living in Darwin, Australia.
More cool photos here.
