The Brunch Bunch
I got up at 7am (my parking expired) and drove north for a while until I found an empty street to crash in and then got a couple more hours sleep. The camping mat was a god send! :p Then I thought I better find some breakfast but all my GPS could find was a [...]

Living the dream, stealing bandwidth and sleeping in my car.
Its going to be 6 degrees tonight apparently, not the best time to be homeless in Toronto, although the forcast is mid twenties for next week so things are looking up for the time I move into the hostel. After brunch my mission was to get a sim card and a sleeping mat, I typed [...]

Homeless in Toronto
Woke up at 8.30am quite cold but alive, and no knocking security guards kicking me off the car park. Figured I would get breakfast by Lake Ontario and drove where ever my tomtom told me until I got to a nice beach with plenty of people playing volleyball. No showers though so I’m kinda stinky. [...]

Rat Pizza?
I found somewhere to park up all night and came to the Canadiana Backpackers to sort myself out for when my car had to go back. I stole their wifi, took a shower (the girl on the desk took pity on me, she looked disgusted when she learnt I was kipping in my car) and [...]

Longest Friday
What a hectic couple of days, lots to do, things to sort out, post, put up lofts, computers to fix, relatives to see… felt like it would never end. And then I go to sleep at 4am, get up at 9am, run around madly for the last few hours, make it to the Airport 3 [...]

Everything is possible
Or at least I hope so. I have 24 hours of time to finish sorting my stuff out and after making a few piles I think I’ll be ok. My parents were freaking out at all the stuff I brought back but some is for posting, some are a few last minute ebay items and [...]

Last day in the park
Still so much to do but I spent all day in the park playing frisbee and juggling. First we went to Big Wok in Birmingham for brunch. I can’t say Im a fan, you can tell if you should eat there from the patrons, and none were Chinese. I cycled up with Martin and Pepe, [...]

My letter to O2. It worked :)
Sir
I called late Friday afternoon to complain about the fact that you were planning on changing the terms of my contract and that I wanted to cancel it. During the first call I hadn’t actually got a copy of the contract in front of me to prove why I could legitimately do so and said [...]
