RL Wandering: June 2008
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Wednesday, June 18, 2008. Week of Chaos pt.4: Wednesday. I had no cash so slipped away from a tutting cleaner; Helen was less fortunate.), watched the astrological clock thing in action – while hardcore tourists cheered it on – and then went up to the big museum at the top of Wenceslas not-really-Square. In the streets as well – I must check when it’s dark and they are lit. In question, although I think the Nazgul. Not by how strong the...

RL Wandering: Why the streets of Edinburgh are covered in crap
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2009/07/why-streets-of-edinburgh-are-covered-in.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Friday, July 24, 2009. Why the streets of Edinburgh are covered in crap. Once upon a time, men got paid more than women. It seemed normal and natural and, other than a few crazy feminists, nobody took any notice. This changed. Women started taking their employers to court, pointing out that they should get paid the same for doing the same job. Over time, things improved and the gender pay gap. Whose nemesis, the Edinburgh Evening News.

RL Wandering: Dead, dead, dead - someday you'll be dead
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2008/12/dead-dead-dead-someday-youll-be-dead.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. Dead, dead, dead - someday you'll be dead. And apparently there has been a much higher death toll amongst the big names than I had realised. I knew about the big ones like Arthur C Clarke. But I had missed Michael Crichton. Aka Audrey II in Little Shop of Horrors. Who will carry the HHGTTG candle now that the two great powers behind it are gone! Where will the new Mornington Crescent. View my complete profile.

Rudsambee's history
http://rudsambee.org.uk/rudsambee/newhistory.shtml
Last modified 8th April 2009. Rudsambee is a charity registered in Scotland, nr. SC037564. Rudsambee was created and built up by Sheena Phillips. We then asked Ollie Singleton — at the time a music student in the University of Edinburgh, and our youngest member — to lead us, which he did with success and distinction until mid-2012. Currently our director, combining skill, talent and fun in the Rudsambee tradition, is Ciara Coleman. We have enjoyed visits to/from. From Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire (2015).

From Scotland to Siberia: January 2009
http://fromscotlandtosiberia.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
From Scotland to Siberia. And then to Shanghai! An Edinburgh couple's Chinese adventure. Saturday, January 31, 2009. Desperate to escape his family by the fifth day of the enforced holiday, one of Peter's colleagues phoned the other day and offered to take us out for a drive. 'I will show you some sights', he said. But what we got was something altogether more surprising. About anything in China! It too had a foyer exhibition, just photos this time, which showed, among other things, that the Emperor Puyi...

From Scotland to Siberia. And then to Shanghai! An Edinburgh couple's Chinese adventure. Sunday, July 19, 2009. New kid on the blog. Ok, I swear if I’d thought of that title earlier I’d have posted this sooner. 2 Logistical. Getting to the hospital at 3am while in labour was supposed to be organised in advance. Big Boss was going to lay on a car. Drivers were to be primed and ready to rush to our assistance. Did this happen? 4 Administrative. My feelings regarding a certain international medical insu...

From Scotland to Siberia: Sweeping changes

From Scotland to Siberia. And then to Shanghai! An Edinburgh couple's Chinese adventure. Saturday, April 4, 2009. Well Tomorrow, Sunday 5th April, is my birthday. I shall be (apparently, so they tell me) 41. Forty-one. Was a more depressing age ever invented? Dia de los Muertos. Though sadly without the fabby costumes, Watty and Mark! As one of China’s few solar festivals it always falls on the 15th day after the Spring Equinox, i.e. the 4th or 5th April. Great. Just what I need whe...I hasten to point o...
