Five years!

April 28, 2006

Yet another long weekend has started, quite a significant one I might add, as it was this weekend 5 years ago that I got married to my lovely, beautiful, sexy, intelligent, thoughtful wife Jo.

So to celebrate, we are going away for a romantic weekend ;-) There will be no updates from Lookatbowen.com until Tuesday.

Have a good one!

£1/litre for petrol & diesel.

April 25, 2006

This is very annoying. Why should we the poor consumer have to pay such ridiculous prices for petrol or diesel when the petrol companies (Esso, BP, Shell) are all making billions of pounds profit. It just doesn’t make any sense. The government should step in and say "No more price rises", but they won’t because they too are making billions on the increase of the oil price. Something has to be done before it’s too late. I rekon we need to NOT BUY PETROL FOR A WEEK. If you can hold out that long, it will cost the petrol companies millions and the government millions, and then hopefully they can bring the price down.

Schumacher is back!

April 23, 2006

Isn’t that a sweet sight to see, Schumacher beating Alonso to the line. I thought Schummie drove a patient race, and didn’t make any mistakes, even though he clearly had the slower car. Overall a fantastic result.
That is a sweet sight to see.
As for the British man Button, Oh dear, he has Nigel Mansell luck. It just seems there is nothing he can do to win a race.

Can’t wait for the Nurburgring in two weeks time.

The start of a fantastic weekend.

April 21, 2006

I awoke this morning with a kitten sitting on my throat, a splendid way to be woken in the morning, also managed to talk to my Uncle and Cousin in New Zealand on Skype. They are 11 hours ahead of us and of course enjoying the weekend already. Isn’t Skype an amazing package?

The Queen is 80 years old today. I wonder when she is going to make Prince Charles a king. I bet he is thinking NEVER!

There is quite a lot happening this weekend. Sunday is St. Georges Day (England’s National Day). St. George is the patron saint of England. His emblem a red cross on a white background, is the flag of England, and part of the British flag. St. George’s emblem was adopted by Richard The Lion Heart and brought to England in the 12th centuary. The kings soldiers wore it on their tunics to avoid confusion in battle.

It is also the London Flora Marathon and there are going to be tens of thousands of mad nutters running for various charities. We are supporting the Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, since they
F1 San Marino at Imola
There is also a Grand Prix this weekend at Imola. Of course Ferrari are going to do well (they better!!!).

Wow, have you seen ‘Performancing’ for Firefox?

April 18, 2006

I stumbled upon this brilliant Firefox Extension called Performancing, a great little utility that works with most blog software and also has support for Trackback, Technotati and Del.icio.us.

Speaka da English Bowen, what are you talking about?

  • It’s a full WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor and source editor.
  • It’s built into Firefox, and opens up on one click.
  • You are able to edit your website/blog while surfing the internet.
  • Click the graphic below to install the extension.

This blog was written with the perfomancing extension. It’s unbelievably easy to use and I didn’t even have to worry about the Techorati Tags, as it did it for me. I am very impressed.
