I found this website by chance a few years ago and have since added some of my own content to it, there are some weird and some certainly interesting stuff to be found here.
This site has an amazing array of content, anybody can submit to this website and as long as they feel it is appropriate and has not already been listed they are likely to approve it but they don't just accept anything so be creative.
I bought a mountain bike a while ago and have since been perfecting it, the other day I went for a serious ride around the cycle trails at Theford Forest. We started on the Black Route which is the most intense route - at 10 miles it seems short but this did take us 3 hours to complete.
I intend to get footage of the routes the next time I visit in order to give you an idea of the situation, I have a Kodak Zi8 HD camera which I find a joy to use but the mounting it to my bike was a problem - today I worked a little of my magic and created a mount. See pic.
My mate has bought a helmet cam, I am keen to see the output quality of his new device. The reason I wanted to use my Kodak is because it is the only pocket camera that can record in full 1080P but I always use 720p @ 60fps because of the resulting file sizes - also how many people will watch my productions on a full HD tv at this moment in time? not many. I do publish my video's to Youtube and Facebook so anything more than I currently use would be a waste.
Also, for those of you who have edited massive HD video files you will understand how time consuming it is.. so, get ready for a veww cycling video's from me.

You may have missed this as I intended the image to be 'Non Intrusive' but I have a Toolbar which you can install.
I know some people are against Toolbars because in the past people have abused the system and caused bad things to happen as a result of installing them - but this has my name attached to it and this is only something that will enhance your browser rather than cause you problems - if for nothing else I recommend you do use this just for the Radio - no matter where you are in the World you can add your own local/Favourite stations into it.
It seems the treated roads are fine now but the side roads (I happen to live on One) are still a little hard to navigate through for some 'Numpties'.
You probably can't make the distinction going by this pic - it has just been raining but this road is Ice, people still have to drive along it which is not difficult to be honest but today many people have been finding it difficult!
How some people are allowed to drive is beyond me..
We have a Treated road not too far away and when your on that there is no problem at all, all roads lead to Rome they say so there should be no problem for anybody getting to their destinations now.
Theres a saying: 'There is No such thing as "bad Weather" - Just bad planning and equipment'
So, last night we had another 4 inches (100mm for us European people) of snow - 'Big Deal' I hear you cry but it is if you are not in a highly populated area as I am.
I live in the sticks relative to many and the roads here are not looked after like the main roads are - so, that means I can't get out in my car to replenish Beer stocks!
Fortunately I now use an Electronic Cigarette and have enough eLiquid to last me for a few more weeks so that's no problem, no need to go and buy cancer sticks - or in my case a slightly larger version of those which 'Were' Cigars.
I wanted to go out on a 'Jolly' later today (Monday Evening) with friends but would need to get a taxi back afterward due to personal reasons which usually would be fine but at this moment in time with things the way they are I dont think I could get a taxi back from the place we originally intended to visit - this is because the journey would involve a 'Cross Country' trip over un-treated roads and the taxi people may not want to entertain that prospect.
Had to publish another image of this as we just installed this new Green house (when we had the worst bad day of snow and wind).
Worst day of the year to erect a GreenHouse but we did it - later that day I went Climbing and now I am regretting that as I ache all over !
Did you realise that a Wooden (Cedar) 8x6 ft Green house costs over £1000 these days, and they dont even make it easy for you if you choose to build it yourself as they drill holes in random places which makes things 10x worse for the DIY person.
And before you say it - we tried each panel (Glass) every single way we could to ensure it was not us (My Father and I) who were working in error.
Just went outside to ensure the gate was locked and guess what I saw! Snow @ Christmas (well, as close as I have seen it for many many years here in the UK).
It's 20th December 2009 @ 00:30 and I am in East Anglia - where are you and do you have the same weather where you are?
I finally 'Bit the Bullet' and started a personal Blog, in the past I have always set up blogs for other people and never for myself as I thought I would never have the content to keep one updated as much as is required but truth be known it doesn't take too much to maintain one.
As I just re-made my main website www.nikgrey.com I thought this would be a welcome addition.
Apart from this 'general' Blog I have also created another which keeps people updated with a recent New thing in my life, it has been 'Life Changing' so it deserved it's own blog and that's my Electronic cigarette Blog.
So, it is here you will find my 'Day to Day' life being published to the World.
Expect some helpful tips as well as some thimgs that may make you laugh - this is intended to be a 'Light Hearted' place to visit.
