Originally from the UK, I am currently living with Spiderbaby in the sub-arctic city of Umeå in the north of Sweden.
Currently I am working part-time on a research project at Norrlands universitetssjukhus and being a stay-at-home dad. At least until the snow clears, then I'll be a pushing-a-pram-around-Nydala-lake dad. In addition I am trying to make my photography hobby pay by making some of my images available to buy from instacanv.as or from me directly.
Interesting things I read recently:
If the London Underground network at rush-hour were a city, it would be the fourth-largest in the UK.

Too Much Information: The first album I ever bought was the Fraggle Rock soundtrack. Pretty cool, eh? I was only 16 : )

The last-but-one shot shows Melissa looking in incredulity at people advertising a beachwear shop by basically pretending to be at the beach. Live modeling isn't uncommon. I had the shock of my life when I first saw the 'mannequins' in a clothes shop move around...

FrootLoops: EU vs. US, the battle of the breakfasts
The differences between European and American FrootLoops are stark. It is quite clear that the poor European is being denied access to the best loops by unaccountable Eurocrats, only interested in lining their own nests with money and blue-flavoured loops.
We all know that our politicians are like pigs at the trough, and now we know what it is that they are scoffing! Brothers and sisters it is time for action! We must march on Brussels and demand our rights, our liberty, and our little blue loops!
