		<title>Finally - Lightwater Valley</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	 Now, Lightwater Valley is a park I&#8217;ve been wanting to visit, well, since they opened The Ultimate in 1991- at the time the worlds longest rollercoaster (and still, I beleive, #2)
It only took me 17 years to get there&#8230;

Anyway, the park is a small country park, very green, lots of trees, and a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ 	Thanks to Dilbert - the reality of being a geek - all anyone seems to want is your technical know-how&#8230;

Whether this is true for dating however, I just wouldn&#8217;t know&#8230;

		<title>Petrol, Cycling and Rollercoasters.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	The BBC are reporting that the approx. 20% increase in the price of petrol in the last year or so is driving people off the roads.  This doesn&#8217;t surprise me at all - however in many cases I suspect this means that people are also travelling less, rather than switching to (in many cases, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ I&#8217;ve added a gallery of photos from my recent fun trip to Germany.
For some reason they&#8217;re not appearing on the photo index page, but I&#8217;m hoping that&#8217;s just a server-side caching problem of some kind&#8230;
Anyway, the trip included both me actually fitting in Silverstar (woo hoo!) and an extra semi-unplanned visit to Tripsdrill to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Phorm on Click</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	Apparently, this weekend&#8217;s episode of &#8220;Click&#8220;, the BBC&#8217;s technology programme will feature a segment on the subject of Phorm.
Nod to CableForum for the info, and a nice writeup about the dissertation being discussed.
Click is usually available for viewing on the BBC iPlayer, accessable from the Click homepage.

		<title>Stop Virgin capping the internet and profiling my every move.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	My current ISP (Virgin Media) seems to be systematically trying to eradicate it&#8217;s customer base - by spying on them with Phorm, and now capping their bandwidth to high-bandwidth websites.
If you&#8217;re a customer of Virgin Media, BT or TalkTalk, please read this entire post, especially the parts about Phorm
Despite the fact that I pay [...]]]></description>

		<title>Farewell Dreamland</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	In a terrible turn of events for the groups trying to save the historic Dreamland amusement park in Margate - today saw the destruction of the centrepiece of the park, the classic Scenic Railway in a fire which is apparently being described as &#8220;suspicious&#8221;.  &#8220;Deliberate&#8221;
Now, this is a coaster I never made the [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m sorry, I can&#8217;t hear you over the roar of the engines&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	It appears that the first steps have been taken towards people being allowed to use mobile phones on aircraft.  In flight.
Good grief, it&#8217;s bad enough on other forms of public transport with kids/adults who really should know better blasting music out of the tinny speakers, imagine the cacophony when people are permitted to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Driver leaves HGV stuck</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 	Another story about another truck getting stuck somewhere it shouldn&#8217;t have been that tries to blame the SatNav rather than the driver.
The SatNav may have advised the driver to go up a lane clearly signposted as &#8220;unsuitable for heavy goods vehicles&#8221; - but it was the driver that decided to ignore the roadsign and [...]]]></description>
