Mini Great South Run

Sat, 27 Oct 2012 16:42:48 +0000

This morning I had fun doing the mini great south run with Abi, unfortunately RunKeeper crashed as we went through the start line but I think we did the 1.5k in roughly 11minutes. She had a great time and did it with a mixture of running at a good pace and then walking for a little bit until she saw too many people overtake, then she would pick up pace and dive through gaps in front of her. She enjoyed the stretch on grass much more than the road and path sections and was thrilled with her medal at the end.

Bagel making

After seeing the bagel making on "The Great British Bake Off" the other night, I decided it would be fun to give it a go myself. So this evening using this recipe I did…

Not quite as exciting as the ones they made on the programme, but they seemed to go well for a first attempt!

Tweeting Google Calendar reminders with Postmark

Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:41:09 +0000

A while back I wrote my original script to tweet event reminders from Google Calendar and it's been through a couple of iterations since and been broken for a while. Well finally I got round to update it to use OAuth to connect to twitter using the twitteroauth library and switched to using Postmark Inbound for handling the incoming e-mail.
