Robin Hood, Robin Hood riding through the glen...

So Friday night was the Chemistry Digital Awards night and what I night we had...

After having a few beers at Work (lemonade for me) we went off to the Salutation Inn in Nottingham for some real ale and sambuca! Again, I had lemonade :(

Then to all of our surprise we crossed the road to visit The Tales of Robin Hood where we dressed up as Knights, Ladies, Jesters and Wenches and enjoyed a medieval feast with plenty of beer...lemonade.

Below are some pictures from the night (or check out the photoset on Flickr), but first I must mention the awards winners!

Sunny Mallorca, here I come!

I'm off to sunny Mallorca in October for the Chemistry company away weekend!

David Coe, MD of Chemistry Digital and personal friend of mine, is taking me on the pre-holiday golf tour with the rest of the big wigs, and then we'll meet everybody else for sun, sea and Sangria.

I'll have some lovely photos to share with you all when I get back, but for now take a look at the Hotel Nixe Palace (below) where we'll all be staying.

If you work for Chemistry and are not already coming, there is still plenty of time to sign up, but don't forget the sun block!

Isle of Wight, Blackpool and the evil Croc!

Well I'm back from my trip to the Isle of Wight with James and Alison. We stayed near Ventnor on the south coast and the weather was great!

On one of the days, I'm too dazed to remember which one, we went to Blackgang Chine where I discovered a wild Crocodile. I had to wrestle it to save the kids, but I think he came off better than I did. Needless to say I had a sore head in the morning...

Then when we came back to lovely old England, we went for a day trip to Blackpool. It was really hot again, so I topped up my tan (I'm almost as orange as David Dickinson now!)
