Back from Spain
We arrived back at Bristol airport safe and sound (and slightly delayed) late last night... Thanks to Lynsey, Kieran and Joshua for putting up with us for the past week - it was great to finally see you Josh. We've got a few photos to upload from our break in Alicante/San Juan - they'll be online later today. This Sunday is the reunion of the Greek trip - so we'll try to get a bit of…
There and back again - a developer's tale
Well, wow... What a busy couple of weeks we've had! At the end of February, we headed across to Alicante for the Carnival celebrations, as well as to see Lynsey & Kieran (and Bump).

We've spent the last few days taking it easy, visiting some new places, (we went to Altea yesterday - it's a nice place).…
Les Fogueres de Sant Joan
They say a picture says a thousand words... ... from this ... ... to this ... Last night was the Les Fogueres de Sant Joan in Alicante city. Hundreds of thousands of people turned up to see all the hogueras (bonfires) being set alight! It was amazing…
