Oh Canada…..

07/02/2009 by admin.

Hello everyone,

  I know I’m a day late and I’m sorry for that, but it’s been none stop for me.  It’s going to be a really short blog I’m afraid as I’ve still got some jet lag and I need to get some sleep before the wife comes home.

  I’m currently in North Canada at the moment visiting my beautiful wife (been married almost 18 months, but only been together for a week) for a month and it’s really, really cold at the moment.  Yesterday it was minus 29 (I’ve never been so cold in all my life, it’s like living in a fridge) and me been a bit stupid went out for a walk.  To be fair, as long as everything is covered up, it’s not too bad, but any bit of flesh that is showing gets hit hard by the cold, I couldn’t feel any of my chins due to the cold, but luckily everything else was covered up so it wasn’t too bad (there’s some places where you just can’t afford the chance of frost bite).  I admit that I looked a bit simple (most people would say retarded,) with my hat with the big flaps that tie under your chin to keep your ears warm and my big thick gloves to keep the cold out, but it kept me warm and I look pretty simple at the best of times anyway, so it’s not a big loss to be fair.

  I just find it funny that as I was leaving the UK, there’s a huge media storm about the bad weather there and it’s nothing compared to the weather here and the locals just tell you to wait till it drops to below -40 and life just carries on as normal.

  I got my iMAC at the weekend and got that all set up, so I’m just about ready to start on iPhone stuff.

Lucky Seven:

  Isaac is feeling a lot better now and is back at work on Lucky 7 and is working on the foundation for the puzzle mode of the game and tidying up a few other bits and bobs.

  For the other stuff, well to be honest, I’ve got about 220 e-mails to read through what with me spending 2 days travelling and the rest of the days trying to catch up with loss of sleep, but next week will be make to normal again I hope as I should be able to work during the day time while my wife is at work.

Right it’s time I was off as I need to get a couple of hours sleep and I’ll up date the blog with some photos of the snow covered area here as it looks really nice here.

So have a good week and I’ll update every one soon,

Thanks,

Mike.
