what my twitter posts *should* have looked like…
Posted by One Inch Man | Filed under Random
So, the first part of the journey is over and I’m knackered.
I posted a few comments and pictures during the trip to Twitter via my mobiley phone, but I’ve discovered that the comments accompanying the images didn’t show up, they each just say “You have received a new message”, which sucks!
I figured I’d cobble together all the pictures/message I sent, in order, with the original captions. That way, should you care, you will have a better idea of what I was going on about!
(text messages in bold, messages that were meant to accompany photos in italics)
Mobiley phone acquired. Let Twitpicery commence! On the ferry to France. Yay!
Now in France. By way of proof, beaucoup de fromage!
Raining but warm, lightning seems likely. Electrical storms follow me everywhere I fear!
Just saw a kid walking around, carrying a shoe on a stick. I know not why.
After spending 33hrs traveling about 2000 miles I finally slept! Ants in 1st hotel room. Thanks ants. Thants.
Just drove through Cuisery, a french Hay-On-Wye. Books FTW!
The mountains are visible now, yay!
Foggy morning in the mountains (this picture didn’t show up at all)
But clearing up now
Beautiful scenery, just hope this piece of shit van survives the journey!
It’s crazy hot in this (looong) tunnel. When we come out – Italy!
Porno DVD vending machine? (pity you can’t see it properly in the picture!)
Arrived at port in Genoa. Are we in the right place? Who knows, absolute chaos!
Right place, wrong time ie seems. Everyone around us is headed to North Africa
(turned out to be the other way around)
Sitting in the heat, eating bonbonbonbons, wondering what the hell’s going on!
Finally onboard ship. “Ferry”=cargo ship, Grimaldi Lines=liars, Genoa port=epic, EPIC fail! Bollocks!
Off coast of Sicily, mobiley service back. Not much food on board, but sweet jebus it’s good!
There you have it. Now for a couple of days of intensive packing then I get to do most of it again in reverse!
Don’t set fire to yourself

On the road again…

Hello there, just a quicky.
I wanted to post this earlier but epic fail on the part of my (ex) webhost meant, until earlier today, I wasn’t sure if I’d still have a website to post to. Apparently I do though, so here it is.
Basically, as some of you know, I’m moving soon and phase one of that move involves a mini adventure which starts tomorrow.
It involves a lot of traveling in about six days. Basically, Malta->UK->France->Italy->Malta
During that time I won’t have access to the interwebs but hopefully I will, at some point, be able to post pictures to Twitter via some newfangled mobiley phone device.
While I do intend to post updates, it does rely on
a) Me seeing something worth updating
b) Me figuring out how to to it
c) Me remembering to do it
It’s a tall order, but you never know, it’s so crazy it might just work.
Anywho, wish me luck
Don’t set fire to yourself
