C’était un Rendez-vous
Saw this mentioned a while back on Channel 5′s Fifth Gear…It a film from 1976 – all shot in realtime and not speeded up in anyway, it shows a a trip from Port Dauphine to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur. It was done in a Mercedes Benz 450EL 6.9, but the sound track is of a Ferrari 275GTB.

Grrrr…
Finally, after being delayed due to the release of the iPhone, OS X 10.5 is here. I made the trip to the Apple store in Sheffield’s Meadow Hall to have my first look – also managed to convince the other half she should come along too (although she got a bit fed up and disappeared to look at shoes)First impressions are good, had a play with the new “spaces” feature – should be useful for using with VMWare fusion. Also cover flow being integrated into the finder seems like a cool feature – wether it will actually be of use remains to be seen…hopefully my copy should be landing on my desk at work on Monday from where it will be promptly installed and played with tested. I even managed to get there in time for the free “limited” edition T-Shirt, haven’t decided wether to actually wear it or not yet though!While I was there, I also had a chance to play with the new iPod Touch – now, where did I put that spare £300……..
Dublin Invasion
I’m back and fully recovered from my Dublin trip…me and a few mates from the old FHBrown days made the trip over for the weekend. Pics can be found in the gallery section of the site if you are interested. Think I now have a taste for Guiness…I suppose I will have to test to see if it does really taste different in this country – It’d be rude not to really!
