Last month Helen and I got married at Llandudno Registry Office, so I can now officially select “Married” as my marital status on any forms I fill out! We had a low key do afterwards at the Imperial Hotel with family and friends and thankfully everything went to plan, even the weather held off so we could have a few photos outside. It was the perfect day.
You can see some photos of our day on the blog of our wedding photographer and I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of the photos this weekend to bring back some happy memories.
My manager sent me the link to this video today, the message of the talk was something I’ve felt personally for a while but it’s good to see research back it up. It’s why I code at evenings & weekends on my little side projects such as Twitile. The visualisation of the message is also quite unique.
Eight years after my first attempt I was back at Llandrillo College tonight to start Semester 1 of the CCNA course. I’ve been close to starting the course again the past few years but not got round to it for one reason or another. I’m determined to complete the course this time round and looking forward to filling in some of the gaps in my networking knowledge.
It felt good to be back at college again, a lot has changed about the place in the past 12 years since I was first there but some the rooms haven’t changed that much and still bring back a lot of good memories.
I’ve not been able to get online properly at all the past week as I’ve been over in Baku (Azerbaijan) due to work, although I’ve got access to a pretty decent connection line now I’m staying at a co-workers”s place. Got another week to do before I fly back to the UK.
Baku is an interesting city to say the least, it’s helped a lot having a few co-workers who have been living here for the past few months and have shown me about the place. Although I’ve already been struck down with what the expats call Baku Belly!
Better start sorting through last week’s e-mail and feeds now, may try to upload some of the photos I’ve taken this weekend.
I read Getting Things Done by David Allen last summer after owning the book for nearly 3 years and I’ve been trying to adopt the principles outlined in the book since then, not very well I might add!
As part of my New Year’s resolutions I’d like to improve my adoption of the GTD methodology and will no doubt re-read the book (as it suggests) or even grab an audio version of it. I’ve also become a member of the GTD group on Facebook and started following a couple of GTD focused blogs in the hope these will improve my understanding of the basic principles and provide a few helpful tips along the way.
I came across this video clip the other day (via DIGTD) that helped me visualise some of the items outlined in the GTD book.
