Serious stuff

At last! the opportunity to talk about emotions and stuff on here. Rachael and I have needed - and thankfully had - a couple of talks over the last couple of days about how we're feeling about changes to our lives since AJ has been with us. And so I sat here to write about them.

And then I spent a couple of hours... sorting out photos. Oh, well. Perhaps I'll tell you about the serious stuff soon. More importantly, perhaps I'll do something about it.

In the meantime, I've moved AJ's photo albums to a new hosting site, as I was running out of space on my own domain and wanted something easier to keep up to date as well. I looked at a couple of different sites before opting for Flickr. I hope I've chosen well because I've spent flippin' ages uploading the photos and sorting them out. (And that's only the photos that were already online - I really need to put some new ones on. There's not been an upload since the end of May!)

Feel free to take a look and let me know how it looks to you. I still haven't worked out how to do some things (like choose what order the photos are displayed on some pages) but it seems pretty versatile and you can even view them as slideshows - which you sure couldn't do when I was trying to write my own code!

Hey Ainsworth!

Your new photo system looks ace. My mom loves Flickr but has yet to sort out the albums of all my pictures. The first thing she did was move them all to an external hard drive because they ate up all her Mac's disk space. But she's busy working and commuting a lot every day and hasn't had the chance to tend to Flickr.

Kudos to your dad for sorting it all out! You are one cute kid and the pictures are great.

You mentioned food in a comment on my blog a bit ago and I thought I should let you know that my parents paid a visit to their favorite British food store in NYC and spent US$7 on a box of 18 Farley's rusks last weekend. Mom had no idea they were just sugary biscuits! But she let me try a bit of one. I was not impressed, much preferring the hamburger I tried earlier that day. We'll be going to visit my granddad and grandma in Portchester this fall and my parents say there are all kinds of tasty British treats that I will get to try!

Bye for now. :)
