There’s been plenty of hype and chatter around the new Rockstar game LA Noire in recent weeks. The critics gave it rave reviews and thoroughly good reports all round and you can easily see why. However, I’m not jumping on the “LA Noire is amazing” bandwagon. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad game, [...]

Life is extremely subjective
Posted: 25th January 2011 by By Adrian Willings in SEOTags: content, people, seo, writing
In my current role I’ve learnt not to take things for granted. Life is extremely subjective. Just because I’d do something or not, doesn’t mean you or Johnny from the street would do the same. An example – the goal of a lot of things on our website (like many sites out there) is to [...]
Getting old – why is it a problem?
Posted: 27th October 2010 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: 30, old, people
Hitting 30 in a matter of hours. People keep saying “last moments of your 20′s” and other similar comments like it should bother me, why? I can understand a woman being concerned about getting older, their looks will diminish and the body clock ticks them close to being unable to (safely) have children. But why [...]

Last night a very nice chap came and looked at my car that’s for sale (not the R32). While he was giving it a very thorough inspection we chatted. He asked if he could get the car looked over by his mechanic. I said that was fine. I’ve got nothing to hide and as far [...]
Dear Annie

Dear Annie, You’re bonkers. Wasn’t it the Earl of Sandwich who invented the sandwich? Hence the name? To answer your question would actually take some serious thought. I suppose the logical answer is to pick some famous people you’d love to meet, but in truth, sometimes its ignorance is bliss. I’d rather not meet most [...]
Aren’t people funny? (part 2)
Posted: 22nd April 2010 by By Adrian Willings in RamblingsTags: life, people, trains
I suppose this should really be titled “Isn’t life funny?” But people were technically involved, so I’ll stick to my guns. On 1 of the trains into work, we have to change at a certain stop. Which means getting off the train, obviously. The conductor or whoever is in charge of the tannoy system announces [...]
