The Real Men Drink Milk blog has moved!

July 16, 2012 By Doug Lawrence Leave a Comment

Happiness bar experts, Mike Little especially, at the excellent Wordcamp UK conference in Edinburgh helped me move this blog from WordPress to self-hosted … er … hosting. There are still a few glitches but hopefully normal service will resume shortly. In particular I’d be grateful if any ‘subscribers’ would contact me if they do not receive updates […]

English National Ballet Performing Carmen at the London Coliseum

July 24, 2011 By Doug Lawrence Leave a Comment

It’s impossible to watch, or rather hear, Carmen and then not have a head-full of ridiculously catchy tunes. And this performance of Roland Petit’s Carmen was no exception. The Toreador Song (Chanson du toréador) – there you go … you’re already humming it, puffing out your chest, and making extravagant arm movements. If you’d don’t believe me […]

Birmingham Royal Ballet’s Passion and Ecstasy: ‘Allegri diversi’ and ‘Carmina burana’

June 26, 2011 By Doug Lawrence 1 Comment

A surprise treat from my wife, we had a very enjoyable evening at the Birmingham Hippodrome. I’m no ballet expert so unable to write an ‘informed review’, but I do like ballet, its combination of grace, elegance, emotion with talent and underlying effort (I know from my daughter’s many years of studying ballet how physically […]

June 22, 2011 By Doug Lawrence 6 Comments

We have some registered trademarks, and have today received an unsolicited ‘Reminder’ from Trademark Renewal Service Ltd. 81 Oxford Street, W12 2EU London United Kingdom. Providing trademark renewal services is a legitimate business, sending out renewals to companies who are not your clients that look like ‘official’ documents is not (IMHO). I will as instructed […]

During my visit to the King Sejong Story I found an area where I could practice Hangeul (한글). Unfortunately I need a lot more practice!

Dubai international airport – Randries! (from Tamil நன்றி)

June 14, 2011 By Doug Lawrence 1 Comment

OK in short no milk – I had a cold so milk isn’t the best thing for that, and I needed a shower. And that’s where this story begins … I had planned to go to the G-Force hotel and use their gym, but my flight was a little delayed and I found free showers […]
