The Blue Lagoon is an artificial lake, created by the outflow of a geothermic power station near the international airport in Iceland. I’ve visited Reykjavik so many times that I can spell it correctly without looking it up, but I’ve never visited its most popular near-by tourist destinations. Today I took that opportunity! Just after [...]

I hope you can see the map above. On this new work trip I get to visit quite a few new places. Faroe Islands, Greenland and Newfoundland. I hope I have chance to see and do some interesting things. In Iceland I hope to re-visit that very ashy volcano. Other things I want to achieve: [...]

Normally a 3 club combat injury, for me, is something like the following. This red mark on my arm is from someone (Jochen) hitting really hard, but catching me by surprise. Normally I can see an attack coming, and don’t get hurt, but Jochen’s attack, which caused this bruise a few weeks ago, was directed [...]

Two tricks. One I can do, and one I need to practice a bit more. One day I’ll get round to performing this routine.

“It’s such a beautiful day, I think I’ll walk.” Actually, I went to the canal to feed the swans. I took my camera, to practice taking photos without looking through the viewfinder. As I was trying to take a photo of a swan taking bread out of my hand, a man walked past with two [...]

Katrin had asked me [...]

Over the past five days I’ve done a lot of work on my apartment. I painted the ceiling of the living room and juggling space, something I never got round to doing, despite living here for 3 years. I bought and laid carpets too. I built a table/shelf for the back of the couch, and [...]

Between 2001 and 2003 I released about a hundred videos on my old website, Luke Burrage’s Thing on The Net. I had to get creative to deal with the bandwidth drains of these videos, as there would typically be about 300-400 downloads per day, which is probably more than the combined views my videos get [...]

During my last cruise someone asked me: “When did you know you wanted to be a professional juggler?” I thought about it for a few seconds before replying: “Exactly ten years ago today.” Which, to be honest, is only half true. Ten years (and now ten days) ago I didn’t know I wanted to be [...]
