The Guppy Went With Gusto: 11/01/2008 - 12/01/2008

The Guppy Went With Gusto. After working in schools in The Gambia, Scotland, New York City and Boston, I am now teaching in Douala, Cameroon. The Credit Crunch Hits (Rented) Home. Unfortunately my quest ended in failure. The customer service agent informed me that, since I carry no debt or mortgage (HA! Alas, I was incorrect in this assumption. As banks have belatedly moved to tighten their lending and credit provision strategies, I remain out of the UK financial loop, at least for the next six months.

The Midday Meal: June 2004
http://themeal.blogspot.com/2004_06_01_archive.html
A repository for the various things i consume in the course of daily existence. Tuesday, June 01, 2004. Its one of the fundamental differences between our system of government and the US system. It is I believe an infinitely better system. The problem is that it is being undermined. John Howard last week is once again hiding behind the faceless beaurocrats and staffers. For whose actions he is ultimately responsible. Sign, and answerable for their actions is not just something that is being undermined he...

The Midday Meal: July 2004

A repository for the various things i consume in the course of daily existence. Tuesday, July 13, 2004. The Beaze is Back. Say what you will about Mark Latham, the bloke keeps finding the way out of every bind he gets himself into. By bringing his leadership rival and big bouncing ball of fun Kim Beazley back onto the frontbenches he's done it again. I still don't like the FTA though. Posted by lunch @ 9:46 AM. Monday, July 12, 2004. I've been wanting to check this cd out since I heard about it over a ye...

The Midday Meal: April 2004
http://themeal.blogspot.com/2004_04_01_archive.html
A repository for the various things i consume in the course of daily existence. Monday, April 05, 2004. Maybe just for me. The BBC on Migration. Small fry, and yet the biggest fry in these here parts. Posted by lunch @ 12:43 PM. So shall you reap? The other thing we have to fear is. The only thing we have to fear is. I was quite amused. Someone should tell the English. I am not sure that I should be doing this. Its been a good couple of weeks for bigots. Team – Thunder, Lightning, Stri. You Am I - Berlin...

The Guppy Went With Gusto: ECD
https://bokvandal.blogspot.com/2012/10/ecd.html
The Guppy Went With Gusto. After working in schools in The Gambia, Scotland, New York City and Boston, I am now teaching in Douala, Cameroon. To the bodega, then across the street to wait for the pizza to be warmed over. Accosted from another bench by a man ominously wonders, among other things, “Who said, 'Houston, we have a problem? The sentries laugh amongst themselves while discussing football. Muttering from my neighbours about quotas - “bullshit, man.”. What's your last name? Some thirty minutes la...

The Guppy Went With Gusto. After working in schools in The Gambia, Scotland, New York City and Boston, I am now teaching in Douala, Cameroon. My stay in Scotland. It's been nearly three months since I left Scotland and, as I catch up on some posts I wanted to do, I decided to write a little about my experience in Edinburgh. Cramond Island, Edinburgh, in February 2009. While in Edinburgh I was fortunate to have several visitors from the U.S., as well as a couple of friends staying around London...So I ...

The Guppy Went With Gusto. After working in schools in The Gambia, Scotland, New York City and Boston, I am now teaching in Douala, Cameroon. After polling several veterans of this field trip, I was apprehensive about taking my students to Operation Santa. This is what it reportedly entailed:. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the trip. Organized by the Community Mayors. In all, two of my three charges enjoyed the trip (a fourth would have found it too noisy and constricting), and I had a fairly goo...

The Guppy Went With Gusto: The Seder
https://bokvandal.blogspot.com/2011/05/seder.html
The Guppy Went With Gusto. After working in schools in The Gambia, Scotland, New York City and Boston, I am now teaching in Douala, Cameroon. In advance of our stay in Bogotá, Becky looked into possible Passover Seders she could attend there. With some general directions, we set off on the Transmilenio to points north. 8221; and pointed towards the exit. There we found Becky buying a bus ticket to enter, despairing of the effectiveness of yelling “Chris! 8221; between bouts of laughter. At this point we ...

swim to the moon...: February 2006
http://swimtothemoon.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Swim to the moon. Saturday, February 25, 2006. It's been a while. Since I've been able to post here. What with Christmas, parents visiting, a trip to Spain, the return of the other sport. Heavy work deadlines, and a lapse in pool membership. it's all been a little frantic at Moon Mission Control. Will lie dormant for a bit - giving me a bit more time to splash about in the pool. So, where were we then? 119954km from central London at our last update. And you were posting your laps like champions:. We'll ...

swim to the moon...: October 2005
http://swimtothemoon.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Swim to the moon. Tuesday, October 11, 2005. Together we'd managed 18.65km last time I managed to update. We've had some fantastic input since then, with laps from all over, so here we go with the new total:. Owen 47.500 (amazing! Paul 48.000 (amazing here too! Claven again 4.800. Marketmosley 4m (3 laps of bath). So the new total: 118.954km! We've shot off the coast! We're now a little way into the English Channel, heading east on our first lap of the Earth! It might seem a little unfair to poor Paul.
