I know, I haven’t posted for ages. Well I do have a fairly good excuse, I’ve just got back from Holland where I was visiting Taz and her family. I didn’t get any souveniers as I didn’t consider myself a tourist, and my camera still isn’t fixed so I couldn’t take that but you’ll just have to take my word for it that I was there.
Unfortunately I think I took the rain with me, so we couldn’t do most of the things we planned like swimming in the local lake, or going for a bike ride down by the river. It was pretty relaxed though, and we managed to spend some quality time together which is the point.
I haven’t got a lot to talk about at the moment as I’m don’t want to give away all the details of my holiday, but I’m planning a series of posts in the Techie category for things that I’ve been working on recently.
Just wanted to let my small reader-base know I’m still around and I haven’t forgotten about you 
Maybe one day this blog will actually become better known and I’ll get comments on more of my posts

Yep I’ve got my flights and car booked, I’m all ready to go on a little holiday to Holland. Taz is frantically trying to find things that we can do, apparently there’s a bowling contest on so I’ll have to turn up and show my terrible ability. Also, the dates I’ve booked means I’ll be with Taz for her birthday so I’m really happy with that
I hear there’s a disco of some sort on while I’m there too, I asked what sort: “A swimming disco”. Wow, thats a new one for me, so we get to pay extra to swim with coloured lights? Cool!
Anyway just a little update for my readers, nothing much interesting happening except I’m still working on the website for www.genestate.com. I’ve managed to overcome several obstacles with Ruby on Rails that I was struggling with, but I’ve still got to make a system that handles reminders and records of monthly payments.
I’ll post again in a few days, seems like there’s more happening these days

I know, I know, I haven’t been blogging much recently. I just haven’t felt like writing much. Don’t get wrong, things are going well, very well in fact. I’ve got the the smoking kicked, I’m getting ready to go back to university in September and I’m arranging to go to Holland to visit Taz.
I’ve got several projects I’m working on, you might have noticed that this blog has now moved domains. I thought I should get a domain for my personal stuff and one for the potentially commercial projects I’m involved with. This blog will be staying here and mattharrison.org will be new home from now on.
