After purple_pens Birthdays memories post (friends locked) I rather foolishly started looking through my old photos. (Incidentally, Penny, I have a number of other photos from your belly dancing birthday meal…let me know if you’d like copies of them).

Coloribus…great visuals
Hello operator, get me no mans land
At last I get around to writing up a little of our visit to France
One week, 1474 miles, 29 hours of driving and 1 breakdown later, I’m back on British soil. White lines haunting my vision whenever I close my eyes, all is quiet now, the familiar rush of wind in the sunroof gone.
Sleepy now.
The French know how to eat…I feel like I’m currently learning how to explode.
I wonder what happens if i try to post a sound through the email gateway?
Testing
600 miles in ten hours of driving. And now theres not much in the way of mobile coverage, so there’ll not be much in the way of updates. All very relaxed here, peaceful.
Kiva takes Prosper to another level. I like both of these sites – they both provide an interesting view on people helping other people out. Its almost charity, except that the intention is that the loans are repaid – the charity is in the provision of opportunity rather than the finance itself.
Of course I’m slightly worried by the number of people on Prosper trying to pay down their credit card debt by taking another loan, the number here seem to suggest that they cannot get credit from the usual sources, and theres probably a good reason for that.
But between the credit laden there are some interesting ideas which likely wouldn’t get funding from the conventional lenders. I intend to spend some time investigating and supporting worthy projects on both sites.
One day.
