So another year gone, how they seem to fly by so quickly.
Anyway enough drivel, I’ll get a best of 2011 post up soon (probably around March at the rate I work at). January maybe a bit slow for posts as I am working on a new front page for the website and have taken on a distance study course which I need to catch up with, such is life eh?
Thank you for all the support over 2011 and previous years, it’s been an interesting one with the events in Japan and me based in Fukushima, but I made some good friends there. In 2012 I think I will be focusing on my creative side a lot more. Back to basics with writing and photography, bringing higher quality items on here.
To kick us off, here’s a picture I took in London a few weeks back (I’m actually in London for New Years too) of the quality you can expect from me in 2012. Cheers and happy new year:

Merry Christmas to all my readers, I hope you’ve all had a nice year up to now and may it continue into next year.
I’ll be enjoying time with my family over this period (for the first time in 3 years due to previous travel) and spending new years in London so expect a London themed post from next week.
Anyway here’s a picture of a snowman I drew using a strange online drawing application, as adobe decided my version of photoshop was just a trial so it doesn’t work anymore:

It is nice and useful to read in a travel blog about your chosen destination but it is fantastic when you live the experience. This is what I felt in Valencia, the prehistoric city of Spain. In addition to the famous festival of Las Fallas numerous other events Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →

I’ve never really travelled much with a smartphone, I’ve always had a cheaper phone mostly as an emergency back up rather than an aid to help my travels. I’ve been asked to develop a travel app before but never got that into it as it’s not something I’d use myself.
However earlier on this year I got an iPhone 4 after reviewing the Nokia N8 which I was kindly sent to play around with. I thought the Nokia, whilst a good phone didn’t offer much value due to the lack of apps and a awkward operating system, and with my Panasonic compact camera giving up after 5 good years of service I decided to invest in a smart phone for basic snaps rather than a new compact. I chose an iPhone 4.
However recently after that Nokia announced a new partnership with Microsoft and their flagship phone will feature the Windows Mobile operating system. Once again, Nokia went on a campaign choosing the internet to advertise, and I got my hands on another new Nokia, the Lumia 800, this time with windows phone, a whole lot more effort in marketing, see the video below to see what it’s about (only viewable on website not for subscribers I’m afraid).
