iPhonery

Apple have done it again , and again and again . I am a Mac user and even own an iPhone and was thinking up until yesterday I will get the new iPhone 5 when it comes out.
But now I think I won't.
It just seems every six months old earnest Jonathan Ive is fanfaring some new "amazing" phone product and we just lap it and cast our 'old' one aside . 
They are a business and need to make money but their greed seems to be growing faster than their creativity that helped them get where they are today.
I'm not anti Mac ( have you tried using Windows ??) but just feel it's all going a bit off kilter.

Popla/Griffin Boiler MK II




Bonny Scotland

Spent a charming couple of days up in Edinburgh visiting Bobby Spray, his misses & the wee man - cheers pal !




Griffin Geodesic

Spent a few days down at Loveland Farm , Harland , UK as guests of the Griffins in their new
dome . It was pretty darn rad - I want one .
You can stay there too.




Skrillex / Pukka Visuals

Went to see Skrillex headlining Seattle's Bumbershoot festival recentley . This was not by choice but by parental responsibility.
Anyway It was quite good fun - took me back to 89 and warehouse raving - not much different really , maybe the lasers have got better ?
