The problem with throwing a bunch of batteries in a bag is that they tend to form circuits and short out. By carefully packing batteries into a compartmentalized case, the batteries will be easy to find and at full charge when I need them.
Unified Moving Services supplies all the necessary packing crates, with security seals and lids if necessary (for confidential files).
Unified Moving Services uses large computer crates that once decommissioned, our packers can bubble wrap each item and pack a complete computer in one crate.
Documentation of us slowly and laboriously packing of all our stuff in boxes (minus the gazillion bags of things that have gone to Goodwill or the trash), followed by the professional movers' much more efficient loading of our things out of the condo and into an LA-bound truck! It's now oh-so-empty in here...
We have a few days of Icelandic photography and timelapse shooting, always so tricky deciding what to bring.
keep up with all the other stuff I do by following me on twitter: @DanCoffeyUK
Not all of this stuff made it into the suitcase. I nearly forgot to pack the Peeps for Spooner, so a few shirts had to get out to make room. This time, I'm not bringing guidebooks -- just a mapbook and my London moleskin journal. I left a couple books of walks at Spooner's on a previous trip, and I ordered London Above Eye Level from amazon.co.uk and had it sent to his house. I learned from rosenbeans to always take a folder of all the junk I've printed out, so I've got a portfolio with maps of Whitstable and Canterbury, some pub lists, and -- of course -- my spreadsheet.
Recently I've been as busy as this bee - packing as I prepare to move house.
In a few days, Pixy and I will be flying north to live in a coastal country town. Pixy is coping very well with the upheaval in his world - being a real cool cat!
The meat packing portion of the barn at the Wakamatsu Tea and Silk colony.
We went to the Wakamatsu Tea and Silk Colony at Gold Hill in El Dorado County today. It's a failed Japanese colony from 1869 or so that tried to grow tea and silkworms. They didn't count on a harsh drought (not as bad as the one now, but bad enough), funding being cut off, and miners diverting their irrigation water for their own nefarious purposes. The colony lasted two years and then the members (they started with 22 people) dispersed. One 19 year-old lady, Okei, died of a fever, probably malaria, and is buried on this site.

Sitting on my couch as they carry out all my possessions. Mum documented the whole thing and I love that she did.

Apparently once described by Time Out as âthe best thing that has happened to Vauxhall - possibly everâ, COUNTER is definitely one of my favourite places in the area. A bar and brasserie restaurant living under one of the railway arches, COUNTER combines the fun, offbeat and slightly eccentric industrial vibe of New Yorkâs Meat Packing District with the familiar gritty surroundings of Vauxhall (which has always been great, yâall naysayers be damned!). Its front entrance is mere yards from the tube and train exits, though due to the somewhat labyrinthine and busy structure of the tunnels/street, it is harder to find than you may expect. Look out for the orange graffiti mural out front.
COUNTER claims to be Londonâs longest restaurant (Iâm not sure if they have verified this or not, but it is 60m in length!), and is divided into two halves. One side is the restaurant/bar proper, and the other side you shall find BackCounter - which is a cocktail lounge and event space. I spent most of my time in the restaurant area, testing out their food (which was quite a bit better than I expected) - they passed the 'blue steak test' with flying colours! The food on the main part a mix of American (those New York influences again) and French - for some reason. Drinks: some interesting craft beers, plus French and American wines (like the food, ONLY French and American choices to be had here - and nothing too expensive either). Thereâs also a reasonable selection of cocktails, many of which making reference to the local area (think: âVauxhall Slingâ). The bar is pretty cool too, all shiny brass running straight down the middle, mirror-adorned walls and secluded, comfortable booths.
Philip Reicherstorfer, the owner, is a happy German guy and Vauxhall resident - formerly in banking but raised in a hotelier family (he told me that because of this he knew heâd always come back to food). His vision for the place combines the lightheartedness of the gay scene with high quality food, and towards this end he managed to get Dan Blucert, ex head chef of The Big Easy in Covent Garden. You probably donât think of Vauxhall as much of a place to go for restaurants but COUNTER could and hopefully will have a part in reversing this trend. Iâd rate the overall experience as 8-9 out of 10 and am recommending it to all and sundry! Very well done COUNTER, hope to see you soon ^_^
