About me

I live and work around Shoreditch, London. My obsession with making Internet stuff leads me to spend my days heading up the tech side at POKE. What you’re looking at is entirely my doing, though, and as you’ve probably guessed, in no way reflects POKE’s views on anything, at all, ever.

In addition to providing me with a soapbox, this site tracks what I’m up to online using feeds from Flickr, del.icio.us and others.

Red route

Red route
I like to think that these guys had stopped off to pop into Food Hall and pick up a quick spicy chicken roll and a coconut macaroon. Good job they can park where the hell they like, otherwise in my imagined scenario they'd have had to walk a number of metres.

Another accident off Kingsland Road

Another accident off Kingsland Road
Whole east side of the junction boxed off, with a big tent on the road. No smashed-up cars to be seen, so I guess it must have been a cyclist or a pedestrian. Bad news.

Not up to much. Just standing outside the entrance.

All going on

All going on
Several vans showed up outside the boozer; couple of police came in to the pub but I couldn't really make out what they were doing. Seemed to be a lot of activity outside and the bar staff were gesturing towards a couple of people but nothing serious seemed to occur.

Busted

These two stopped and questioned this guy for a few minutes before slapping the cuffs on him. I came past again maybe 5 minutes later and they were still stood there talking to him, his hands still cuffed.

Horsemen

Horsemen
Very accommodating gentlemen and mounts. I couldn't work out where they were until I looked at the big version and saw the website address for the shop they're standing outside, then checked out the locations of its branches. Sigh.

Dropped into a Salem micro-brewery for a (very good) pint and got accosted by a crazy person. Walked back to the hotel, straight past this little beauty.

Stop and chat

Stop and chat
At the time it all seemed rather friendly, as though it was just one of the cops’ brother-in-laws in the car and they’d stopped for a natter. Not so sure now I look back at it, but hey.

There was some kind of run going on in Plymouth on the day I showed up, and these guys were waiting at the end of the race to keep everything in order.
