Apologies for anyone reading who has been baffled by the lack of action recently on GBB. After my campaign forced international giant Coca-Cola into an about-face on their bottled tapwater Dasani, I have been inundated with requests for interviews by the international media...
I have also changed my internet provider at home, and despite all my best-laid plans, there was a gap of 1 week between the cancellation of the Yahoo BB line and the new provider getting their stuff together. I should be back online today. It was a very frustrating experience, which probably added to my growing collection of grey hairs, but as the wise Dirk said 'just imagine doing this in the UK - then you would know what frustration is all about'.
In other news, I played football at the weekend, for the first time in over 2 months. I slipped a disc in my back, and was seeing a chiropractor regularly. He very kindly put my spine back into shape, so I am now OK to do some gentle exercise. Playing football is probably not that gentle, really, but I managed to hobble around for a while, even scoring our goal (albeit from a penalty!), and getting bashed in the face a couple of times for my trouble.
Rosie and Megumi are both fine and dandy, and enjoying the sunny weather. Rosie has graduated from sucking her fingers to using them to pick things up, and her latest trick is to pull sheets and blankets over her own head.
We are all off to Tochigi this weekend to play in a football tournament - it will be Rosie's Saitama Jets debut.
Gary, we really should catch up sometime soon. Me thinks we've got a bit to catch up on. :-)
