Logically Strange?

So as I am working, but not at work I thought I would take the time to share some of the things that I intend to happen here on my blog and also within Strange Logic itself. Before I do that though, let me tell you a little about myself and some of the key members of Strange Logic.

Raf Ahmed and André Shapps are my fellow directors in the company. Some of you within the SEM & media business will have met Raf, and some of you within the music and IT industry will know André.

Raf and I met at the Press Assocation, and as well as being the lead developer on a huge project taking an aging, regularly failing immense database application that was utilised by TV, radio, print, web site publications day in and day out and rewritten by him and his team to enable realiability, resilience and scaleability (let alone functionality), he was part of a project that sold for £95million. He is a solid, reliable, quite and staid personality to balance my huge mouth and on top of that all a good friend. Strange Logic would be nothing without Raf and it is his Logic balanced with my Strange that has enabled the business to be where it is today

André was one of the very first developers at Psion and was key in constructing the operating system that has now evolved into Symbian, the operating system used on many mobile phones. He was also a member of the famous 80s band Big Audio Dynamite, also known as BAD and still is regularly involved with music, though more as his alter ego, DJ Shapps !

Raf looks after the operational side of the business, Andre is the guiding force for our software teams and I am the one with the weird visions that Raf and Andre enable – Thanks Guys

As it turns out I truly wish I wasn’t posting what I am about to…….

… Sue, my wife, is currently in the local hospital awaiting a scan in the morning as it seems she has either miscarried or is in the process of miscarrying our baby.

I have no idea why this is happening but I do know that the jovial, loud mouthed, arrogant, capitalist arsehole I normally am has disapeared for now. Instead an emotional, sad, quite, annoyed, angry, couldn’t give a shit about money, pissed off, (did I say emotional?) person has replaced him.

Some stuff has happened over the last few days and I am most definately NOT saying one has anything to do with the other but I do know I am so angry, unhappy and emotional at the moment that whatever I type is literally from the heart and so when common sense kicks in and I can post without these feelings then hopefully I will feel differently.

Shit I have to think differently. I have Daniel to think about.

Ahh fuck it I’m off for a fag….
