Uni

This blog was started while I was at Liverpool John Moores University, in 2000 on a BSc (Hons) Software Engineering degree. The photo here is me at uni. Remember big monitors?

This is a photo of an artistic 3D visualisation of what it would be like to be in a bee hive. It is part of the new “Bees: A Story Of Survival” exhibition at World Museum Liverpool by artist Wolfgang Buttress. Highly recommend a visit.

Sunsets in Zadar

“Zadar has the most beautiful sunset in the world, more beautiful than the one in Key West in Florida, applauded at every evening.” Alfred Hitchcock said that during his stay in Zadar in 1964. I don’t want to argue with Hitchcock but really? Maybe I’m spoilt living in Merseyside because we get some insanely great…

Kornati Island Tour – Zadar

The Kornati Island’s in Croatia are worth exploring if you visit Zadar. We took a boat tour from the Old Town. It included lunch on the captain’s island and a stop for a swim. There are 140 islands in the national park and plenty of other areas to explore on a future trip.
