Archives

The Gorse Fox is not feeling particularly inspired this evening so he thought a rifle through the archives would be interesting...

It wasn't.

What he did find, however, was that 25 years ago today he was starting his first day's work in Long Beach whilst evaluating some software for British Aerospace.
Woke up at 6:30 after a very good night’s sleep. I put on my trunks and headed for the pool, but on arrival saw that it doesn’t open until 9 o’clock, similarly the Jacuzzi so I went back to my room and showered.
It was obviously a good start to several week's of intense research! Looking back on it, possibly the most significant entry for the day was:
...decided to stroll across the road to the shopping mall to get something to eat. When we got there we decided to try the “Shuma” Japanese restaurant. We went to the Tepan room where we all sat around a steel griddle and had the meal of our choice cooked right in front of us.
Yes, the Gorse Fox's first time in a Japanese Restaurant - and whilst he rarely gets the opportunity to repeat the experience he would still rate it as his favourite style of food.

And going back even further, thirty-five years ago today the Gorse Fox was packing his stuff ready to move into our first house.
