		<title>TV when you have no TV</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Help. It&#8217;s that Sunday in July when the Wimbledon Final co-incides with the Tour De France. What&#8217;s worse&#8230; I&#8217;m in Saaremaa and only have 3 Estonian channels &#8211; none of which show either, in any language. Fortunately there is a solution. A decent broadband connection with justin.tv in one window showing the Tour and bet365.com [...]]]></description>

		<title>Swimming in the Baltic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most people who haven&#8217;t spent time in the Baltics seem to think that you&#8217;d need to be bonkers to swim in the sea here. The fact is that the Baltic sea, especially in the area around my Summer base of Saaremaa, is very pleasant. Compared to swimming in the hot bath that is the Gulf [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Stuff in Saaremaa Shops</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just arrived back on Saaremaa for the summer and found a few new things. Other than a nastly cold acquired most likely due to the change in temperature from 45c to 15c I see a few more supermarkets selling the same old stuff. I did find a few noteworthy products on the shelves. Here are the [...]]]></description>

		<title>California Dreamin&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[During a busy schedule of meetings in California this month we happened to be outside the Mountain View, CA, office of Google Inc. Couldn&#8217;t resist the opportunity for a picture. I had the caption already written.

I started an internet company in 1997. Unfortunately it wasn&#8217;t this one.

		<title>Old dog doing old tricks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been meaning to get this online for many years. Thanks to my good friend Gary for use of his VHS to DVD converter I now have this rare footage of me at the 1988 BMX Freestyle World Cup on YouTube.

		<title>World Adventure Part 2 &#8211; Upside Down &#8211; Down Under</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Didn&#8217;t need much of an excuse to travel from Thailand to Australia. Although I did manage to find one that at least made some sense. Christmas is certainly different in the summer sunshine. Must find some more words for an experience that has so far included a week in the city of Brisbane, 2 weeks residing on [...]]]></description>

		<title>World Adventure Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Happy New Year to all. Now that I&#8217;ve realised I&#8217;m on an ad-hoc world tour I thought it must be time to make sure the adventure is documented. From a vague plan to cross the desert from Dubai to Oman and back in a single day  &#8220;visa run&#8221;, I now find myself in sunny Brisbane, [...]]]></description>

		<title>At least the rain is warm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Reporting from Koh Samui. Everyone I spoke to about Koh Samui said it was beautiful. As we had to leave UAE as part of Lyyli&#8217;s visa conditions and had the chance of a few weeks in Thailand it seemed like a good opportunity to see some of the country. With an iBooking customer offering a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gulf News &#8211; Vacancy for English Writer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the Gulf News is delivered to our room each morning I&#8217;ve managed to find time to read at least a few pages every day. Although I&#8217;ve been visiting Dubai for several years I&#8217;ve never really noticed the unusual style of written English. It doesn&#8217;t seem to matter what the article is, the language is just [...]]]></description>
