Finally, my new web design site is up and running.  Bamboo-Media.co.uk is my web design and marketing company and over the last few years, I’ve designed sites for advertising companies, Interior Design, windows and conservatory companies and schools.  I’ve designed the new site to have a fresh, clean contemporary feel and I think the design works well but I’d love any feedback.

Phew, it’s been a long time I know, but I’ve had such a stressful Summer, there has been no time to update this blog.  Time to resurrect it now though I think.

I’ve just got back from Sheffield Ice, with my mate and his kids and have thoroughly enjoyed my first ever ice skating session.  I did wonder, after the initial 30 seconds how I would ever be able to keep upright but after a few tenatative laps, i was surprised how I could skate without holding on to the sides.  I am proud to say that I didn’t fall once!  I will definitely be taking Josh in the near future.

Gotta go now, the sis is doing my tea.  Fritata apparently, which I believe is a posh omlette………….

It’s been a while since I posted some Micro-T photos, but here are some since I upgraded it to alloy/carbon.  I think it looks pretty cool.  It’s cost me a fortune to do it, but it’s such a solid little car now, it should survive most that me or Josh can throw at it.  The parts are mostly 3Racing (carbon chassis), Atomic (shocks), and GPM (alloy bits).  I would welcome any comments on how good or bad a job I’ve done!!

I’ve just got back from watching Josh and the Chiefs play football.  It was freezing, with snow threatening all the time.  We go there a bit late, mainly due to Dad’s pensioner-style driving.  Very annoying but then, he is a pensioner I suppose, so I guess he’s playing up to the stereotype.

The Chiefs were 1-0 down when we arrived and although they pulled a goal back, they ended up getting beaten 4-1 and that was kind to them to be honest.  Half of the kids looked like they’d been at the nightclub last night.  Josh seems to be lacking in confidence at the moment.  I don’t know if that’s down to him moving clubs, changing position or if the break-up has affected him but we need to get his game back up to scratch in the Spring

Here we are, as promised, my new Losi Mini-T chassis, with all aluminium upgrades.

OK, here’s the deal.  I’m Michael Andrew Collinson and this is my personal blog.  There’s not much on here right now but I hope this becomes an interesting blog, if nothing else, for me.  My thoughts, my ups and downs, will all be on here, with my interests, family and anything else I think of.  So, if you happen to accidentally find this place, then I hope some of it at least, makes interesting reading.

More to follow………….
