The IT Man Cometh

After the festive snow, this is another weather related post (so British!). Unfortunately it is raining a lot in Milan at the moment (ironically there is a load of snow back in Britain now) and that means being approached every 5 seconds by umbrella sellers – even if you are holding an umbrella! Why would I buy an umbrella while I am currently using one?!

Actually, while I was in Venice last week, it was raining. So I bought an umbrella and it broke as soon as I opened it – I will remember to bring my usual brolly with me next time.

Venice is a beautiful place – no way I could live there, but great for a holiday. There are so many great places to visit here in Italy. I hope my Italian improves quickly – I am a lot better than when I moved here a few weeks ago, but still a long way off being fully competent!

I have been spending more time having fun than thinking what to write in this blog, but that is good I suppose. I really need to start building my personal website a bit more too, but no rush.

Welcome to my new blog – the musings of an IT consultant/Web developer/whatever I want to call myself.  Like some sort of encredibly intangible public service, I could pretend to be providing some humour and light relief to your serious lives (I know, assuming that there is more than one reader is perhaps optimistic).

After much deliberation and cogitation, I have decided to make this blog about anything and everything (or nothing as the case may be).  The only regular themes will be humour, anger, elation or all or none of the above.

This first post is the most pointless of them all, but felt an introduction to completely not give you an idea of things to come would be worth doing.

Enjoy your stay!
