Can he get even more social?

Had a nice meal recently with a couple of radio/voiceover pals of mine at my local Indian restaurant in town.  We entered nerd territory pretty quickly.  As soon as we sat down we started spouting about various playout systems/business world of voiceovers/recession and social networking etc etc.  You name it - it was all poured over, and that was before the poppadoms arrived!

I finally agreed, after much hesitation, that I should open a facebook account.  Only 4 years late!  I've always been reluctant, viewing it as a one dimensional "let's look at people's holiday snaps" site, but I see the benefits in business as well.  So you can follow me here.

My mate Natalie has a fancy phone, made from the fruit company (yes, that one) and we got onto the subject of my website.  After studying my web page on her phone, she passed on her erudite opinion that, in the words of many a teacher of mine in year's gone by...."could do better".  Constructive advice, so came away £25 lighter, but armed with new ideas, so early 2012, there WILL be changes.  Watch out.

Oscar's birthday is here.  One today.  Can't quite believe how time has flown.  After so many complications and monitoring of his progress from the moment he was born, he really has thrived and is a healthy strong, cheeky chap who everybody loves.

....So far, he's opened one present, a train which daddy loves, and Oscar's indifferent about...he still keeps going back to his well used toys.  His enjoyment of the big day seems to be somewhat suppressed by tiredness, so it's down to bed, and back up later to resume more pressie opening.  I suggested that I should give him a box, wrapping paper and cardboard for his birthday and Christmas, stating..."He's not gonna know any different at this age"...said "The Scrooge".
