Whistling from London to Louisburg
Just thought that I would write about a trip that I took recently to Louisburg, since I seem to have gotten a load of hits from winning the whistling competition recently. My whistling related blog that I just set up is here.
In short it was excellent, and not just because I managed to win the overall “international grand champion” prize, but because everyone there were cool people, I went down with my cousin, girlfriend and her friend and stayed in a really nice place. Geert Chatrou – who is still the best classical whistler in my opinion – is excellent, so edging him out was a bit of luck – it must have been very close… he is dutch too. Must be something in our genes!
This is actually my work related blog, so may not be as interesting as non work ones. There is some stuff about me and about Steak that is non work related. But now that I am on the topic of work - I spoke to a guy (one of the other whistling funalists as it happens – Eric) who is doing some great experimental work with Augmented Reality…. very cool we will hopefully do some work together soon. I also noticed that lack of coverage that I had, losing coverage many times…. I suppose I was out in the country!
