Friday, July 24, 2009. A basement full of chairs at Reeds Antiques. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. Vicar's car, Saffron Walden. We took a day off on Monday and ran out to Saffron Walden again. A lovely day, but road closures on the A14 made getting back a bit of a trial as diverted traffic backed up onto the B roads . Tuesday, July 14, 2009. Once again, the view over Episkopi Bay was one of the highlights of the holiday. Sunday, July 12, 2009. Labels: photo a day. Monday, July 6, 2009. Labels: photo a day.

Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Not on a scale, admittedly, with the horrendous UK floods of 2007. But this was the result of just 30 minutes rain on our street on Sunday. Nonetheless, the lessons of proper drainage maintenance don't quite seem to have gotten home to local government. Of course, in that time 11 mm fell: so it was absolutely torrential. Coelacanth got caught out in and was utterly soaked. A conversation by the river 15 minutes earlier went something like this:. Coelacanth: OK, see you later then!

Friday, October 17, 2008. Welcome to pirate-town, we hope you enjoy your stay . So, I've posted previously on " polite pirating. And I've followed with interest the story of the pirates who seized a ship carrying 33 Ukranian battle-tanks. Has had a long stand-off with the US navy; meanwhile another hijacked vessel has been liberated by the army of Puntland. I've known for some time from UN reports that in the Puntland area there are " pirate command centres. And even official pirate spokesmen. Some of t...

Thursday, November 30, 2006. A fourth Christmas dinner in Cambridge. Where has the time gone? I cannot believe I've not blogged in two months. Oh, wait, that would simply be yet another hectic Michaelmas term. I have spent, it seems, the whole term churning out job interviews, teaching and trying to finish a first draft of the final PhD chapter (slow, slow, progress). I have tickets for a Christmas carol service, you see . Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The bemusement of an Australian lawyer, now living in ...

Sunday, June 29, 2008. Dog poo, school districts and terrorism. As to their effectiveness, the UK has more CCTV cameras. Than any other country in Europe. A fairly high tolerance of surveillance has thus become part of British life. The UK government said. That the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 was intended to provide:. To this end surveillance was only to be authorised when "necessary", meaning on grounds that it was needed:. In the interests of national security;. Contribution or charge p...

Sunday, November 23, 2008. India has authority to pursue pirates. Delhi has formally been given permission to act under a UN resolution allowing navies to pursue pirates into Somalia's territorial waters. Council Resolution 1816 is a very odd creature, authorising pursuit of pirates into Somalia's territorial waters - where Somalia (or at least the internationally recognised, if ineffectual, Transitional Federal Government) consents. . This is an authority the TFG. We are not at war with pirates, and mos...
