Ex-Tabula Rasa

I shall try to define myself in a sentence with a pithy comment at the end:
I'm just an English bloke who lives in Canada after marrying a Canadian lady he met while living in Japan. Yeah, that old cliché.

Shameless Self-Promotion:
My utterly hilarious blog is here
And another one is here


Wow! I'm on Twitter now!
Averaging three stars a tweet since the death of Favrd!

So what now…?

Like a teenage boy staring at a poster of a supermodel, I’ve coveted the iPad for a while, knowing full well that there was absolutely no way I’d ever get my hands on one. And with no reduction in the validity of the analogy, now I have one I’ve no idea what to do with it.

Sure, I’ve downloaded Scrabble and Twitter and Facebook and the obligatory ‘throw the birds at the pigs’ game, but what now? What do I do now? Bearing in mind I have no other Apple products (barring a four-year-old iPod), what would you other iPad owners consider to be the essential things for me to get?
