Around the world

 

 

One of the great things about having a presence on the Internet, whether a blog, website, or other site, is that people from across the globe can visit it at any time, and appreciate your work. Feels a proud moment when you think about it.

Me hundo hasta el fondo y me elevo hasta la cima

 

 

And then I rise to the tops of the clouds, to spark lightning and dance with hailstones.

An RPG game that takes you travelling around other worlds. Hmmm, sounds interesting.

SpaceX just put a Tesla in space 🚀

 

On the 6th February 2018, the world watched as SpaceX successfully launched the most powerful rocket in the world into space, and landed two Falcon 9 rocket boosters back on Earth, synchronized to perfection.

The payload for the inaugural Falcon Heavy test flight was Elon Musk’s red Tesla Roadster convertible. For the first twelve hours, the car was running a livestream back to Earth and blasting David Bowie’s “Life on Mars?” into space.

Walk the World

The office is empty right about now. This is not because the heatwave scared off the office snowflakes. The correct reason is that most of my colleagues have gone for a special walk in aid of a mental health charity through different parts of London. They got purple t-shirts and everything. Meanwhile I’m here holding down the fort, checking emails and clearing up other people’s Excel mistakes.

Erupt volcano, vanquish boredom

 

 

I was a bit bored so watched YouTube videos of volcanic eruptions and movie disaster scenes. I like me a bit of geological action.
