I’m going to start of with a link, not to a particular post, but to a whole blog: I will then, be a toad.
Frequenters of the comments on Bright Meadow might have occasionally seen bits left by meowkaat. (She’s been posting a bit more lately, yay!) I can’t remember when meowkaat first commented on the [...]

Sunday Roast: women! act cool! no son, that isn’t cool
Career guidance required
It’s odd, what sets me off to blogging. I had to take the morning off work as there was a workman from Bob’s Plumbing (no joke, that is the company’s name!) coming round to do something technical to the boiler here at Meadow Towers. Non-urgent work, but work that had to get done before the [...]
Gotta love 9rules
You might have been asking yourself why I wanted to join 9rules.
It’s the people of course.
How can you not want to be a part of that?
And don’t forget to check out their scrumptoulicicious new look. It’s more than just a pretty new face as well - lots of shiny new bits to play with [...]
Race for Life follow-up
Last Sunday I completed the Race for Life 2006 in Southampton. My reasons for deciding to do the 5 km run (that’s around 3 miles, give or take), can be seen on this post. Suffice it to say, I’ve lost lots of people I care about to cancer, and I know there many more [...]
ahh, del.icio.us
I’m starting to rediscover del.icio.us, and I love how it now knows when I tag something ‘research’, I’m likely to also tag it ‘toread’. Ditto when I use ‘collaboration’, ’socialsoftware’ is presented as a recommended tag.
I like it when software learns and presents sensible choices like that.
Monday Update: week three
Actually on a Monday this time as well! Click the link for the full story goodness…
Sunday Roast: look, there’s a tomato
A short and late Roast this week because I spent the middle of the day running 5 km round Southampton common, down the Avenue, and back round the Common again - raising money for a good cause, but still exhausting. I now just want to curl up on the sofa with a five liter bottle [...]
Flickr me this
I want to share a secret with you.
One of my guilty pleasures is going through Flickr, looking at the random assortment of pictures you get when you use their ‘explore‘ option.
For people not yet aware of what Flickr is, it is (at it’s simplest) an online service that lets you upload and share [...]
Smile for me
I’ve decided that every office should have a man with a good smile. They are just so nice to look at you understand. They don’t have to be single (in fact it helps if they aren’t because then you can ogle in safety). They just have to be… easy on the eye. Makes even the [...]
bloody staplers
Fiendishly complex computer systems hold no fear for me.
So why can’t I get a bloody stapler to work?!

Welcome to Bright Meadow. My name is Cas and I try to post here once or twice a week. I'm also trying to write a book along with hold down a full time job, blog and have something approaching a social life! Check out my
