DaveG’s Celebratory Day

Category: Friends,PersonalChrisM @ 1:58 am

Today is his birthday, so assuming he is in this fair city, I am sure we will be celebrating this occasion by having afternoon tea and perhaps going to a classical concert with his wife. Or just getting drunk somewhere…

Happy Birthday

Well, I don’t which 21st this is (lets be polite, and suggest perhaps the fourth?), but in any case, Happy Birthday from me and Ira.

RSS Feeds

Category: Friends,KazakhstanChrisM @ 5:36 am

Following on from the last post, I have recently got around to re-adding most of my favourite RSS feeds, following the last hard drive failure. So, check these out sometime and let me know if you want to recommend any others. (If there is no comment feed listed, it is because there is none listed on their site, and I was unable to guess the correct URL.)

Kazakhstan Blogs

KZBlogKZBlog Comments

The Life Of 2Me – Not actually on Kazakhstan any more, but the older posts are still of interest. The newer ones are interesting too, just not on Kazakhstan 😉

English AdvantageEnglish Advantage Comments – Not specifically Kazkhstan-based, but it does get mentioned from time to time

A Momentary Relapse of ReasonA Momentary Relapse of Reason Comments – See the previous post here for more info on this new blog

News From The CaravanNews From The Caravan Comments

Narcogen – This feed URL should filter out his automatic XBox 360 posts.

Bogar – Live Space’s RSS feed defaults to a lot of items, it would appear. Occasionally times out.

NewEurasiaNewEurasia Comments – Both of these are specifically for the Kazakhstan section of the site.

I’ll add the feed URL for Alex’s Dryad Musings blog once we have her hosted somewhere properly – the free hosting’s required adverts inserted at the top of each page currently ruin the feed.

Whilst you’re checking out and possibly adding those feeds to FireFox/your favourite RSS reader, don’t forget this blog’s feed and comment feed.

Off To The Salty Lake Again!

Category: Friends,PersonalChrisM @ 9:46 pm

I have just heard from Irina that we are going camping again this weekend 🙂
This is the video I previously posted, recorded in 2006 when we first arrived in Kazakhstan. No humans or animals were hurt during the process of filming this clip, however a few innocent bottles and various non-animated targets were somewhat destroyed.

I can’t find a proper post detailing what we did, so I’m assuming this site was set up after the last trip there.

Having learnt my lesson from our last camping trip to the reservoir, I’ll be re-applying the sun block more often, and wearing my hat. Anyway, I’ll try and remember to write what happens, and who else was around, when I return on Sunday.

And Another One

This time it is Ramon’s birthday. We hope you are having fun playing with some rich lady’s pipes. (He is a plumber, not a gigolo, I hasten to add 😉 ).

Happy Birthday
