In the past few years, my personal love and appreciation for a top quality curry has grown a little out of control. Therefore, rather than attempt to tame this particular desire, I thought 2011 would represent a great opportunity to pull a together a group of people from Reading and the surrounding area and attempt to work our way through the local offerings. On a serious note, aside from sharing our opinions on the culinary delights that await us, I am hoping this will be a good chance to meet …

… I don't think Starbucks is a particularly good venue for a poetry workshop, and as hiring a room in an arts centre is expensive, I propose holding the workshop in my flat in Reading. I hope this will make the workshop accessible to poets in London and Oxford (Reading is less than half an hour on the train from both these places, and my flat is 10 minutes walk from the station) as well as those in Reading.

The Teaching of G.I.Gurdjieff begins with the striking proposition that man, as he is, is asleep.... and that is it possible to wake up. His chief difficulty, says Gurdjieff, is that he already believes he is fully awake. By means of inner work,  moments of a different quality can be experienced and gradually it becomes possible to verify for oneself the big ideas contained in this Teaching (sometimes referred to as 'The Work'). It is an oral teaching, given and received within a group. Above al …

Interested in learning about the Raspberry Pi? What it is? What it can do? What you can do with it? Why you want to do that? What you can connect it to? Who can connect to it? What to tell your school teacher about it? What to tell your school kids about it? What to tell your granny about it? If these are the questions you have then you are very much like me and I don't know any of the answers nor do I have a Raspberry Pi (mid-May hopefully) nor do I have any experience of Python or Linux.
