Érase una vez.... el cuento del canon.

Hace muchos años, en un lugar muy remoto... -pausa- para ser concreto, en las mentes de unos brillantes hombres de negocios que visionaron un futuro mejor, nació el canon. Un futuro mejor... para ellos. Los hombres de negocios eran, y siguen siendo, completamente indiferentes a todo lo que no tuviera que ver con el dinero en sus bolsillos, y al parecer no ven más allá del relucir del dinero fácil y rápido. Los intereses de los artistas, los cuales son los que proveen realmente el entretenimiento y el espectáculo a los consumidores, no se ven representados en el modelo de negocio de los que manejan los hilos.

And there we were, going up north, wondering how far we would get, and where we could find a place to sleep. As you might recall, I talked about insect spray at the end of the last post. Let me tell ya. We had an insect problem in our camper. My father was living in it before and got bitten all the time (and, before you think of it, let me put this clear: I'm completely sure he wasn't the cause of the insect invasion), but he had thought that in Cádiz there were some crazy mosquitoes, as he used to sleep with the door open, for fresh air. We noticed insect bites, and at first didn't thought much of it, but as time passed the bites grew bigger and all the time more appeared. From the kind of bites, multiple ones next to each other, we concluded they had to be fleas of some kind, and not mosquitoes, which is bad, because that meant they could be all over the place, in the mattresses, dirty corners, etc.

I hadn't that much problems, as I am pretty resilient to insect bites, but Carmen seemed somewhat allergic, and her bites became HUGE. After buying the afterbite product in Reus, and realising that it was useless, we decided it was time for a little bit more hard-core action. So we bought the insect spray in Barcelona, and on our way to France we wanted to stop somewhere to use it. But that implied that we also had to get all our linens and blankets washed, as well as all our clothes. We pin pointed a place on the map, Figueres, which seemed a probable place to find a laundry.

At the very last, I think I can say it. My moving-to-England-Europe-trip is finally finished. Not that I am happy about not being on the road anymore, but about 95% of everything needed to finish installing myself in England is done. Flat, bank account, internet, local phone number (iPhone), paperwork, etc. Almost everything is in its place, except for some taxes paperwork and buying a bike.

The trip was really exciting and fun, but at times also tiring and stressful, as it was not only holidays but also moving all our stuff from Madrid to Colchester. Man, we had a lot of stuff! Luckily, my always inventive father was doing a ultra light planes pilot license (don't ask...) in the Spanish Peninsula, and he was staying in a camping car he brought from the Canary Islands. Long story short, he brought the camping car to Madrid, so that I could use it for the moving/trip.

Hola a todos!

Ante todo, bienvenidos a mi blog. Éste será un espacio en el que podréis leer sobre temas como cosas relacionadas con diseño, programación, mis luchas con los programas que uso (y quien es el ganador), cosas que encuentre interesantes de la web, opiniones y, claro está, cualquier cosa que a mí me dé la gana :P

Espero que todo aquel que se pierda por estos lares encuentre algo que le interese y si no, ajo y agua, hala... al blog de al lado!

De momento el "backend" del blog no permite mandar comentarios a gente no registrada, pero pronto incluiré soporte para todas las necesidades, gustos y colores (pero sin pasarse), incluida la opción de mandar comentarios sin registrarse previamente, así como la opción de registrarse y recibir noticias por email, responder a otros comentarios y demás.

Esta página en sí es una especie de campo experimental, donde estoy incluyendo y probando nuevas funcionalidades que voy añadiendo a mi especie de CMS, creado sobre el framework php Code Igniter. Digo esto porque, como seguro habrás imaginado, voy a publicar todos los detalles sobre mis creaciones aquí, tanto si es PHP, Flash, Cocoa (Objective-C) o lo que sea que me parezca interesante compartir.

Si no entiendes ni papa de lo que digo, don guorry... seguro que encontrarás algo que te guste. Si quieres compartir tus pensamientos conmigo, mándame un email o exprésate libremente (pero con modales) en los comentarios.

En fins, bienvenidos seáis todos. Más noticias pronto!
