Sometimes you’re drawn into a world you know little about and come back both amazed and enlightened.
It’s happened to me twice today already. The first came about by following the @talkirish Twitter feed.
To explain: I have an Irish girlfriend I’d like to impress with my knowledge of her native tongue. But thus far my Irish [...]

Everyone’s aflutter over Twitter. Its trajectory over the last few months has been as steep as North Korea’s recent ’satellite’ (cough) launch; but unlike the Korean rocket, Twitter continues to rise and rise (insert Vaughan Williams ‘Lark Ascending’ allusion here).
I’d like to brag that FindaProperty.com was one of the pioneers of the medium, but we [...]

If you’ve seen the new FindaProperty.com Rental Index, but haven’t had the time to skim through its unique overview of the UK lettings market, then you can now watch our Head of Research, Andrew Smith, talking to Cantos about the Index and giving you all the juicy bits:

Via our FindaProperty Twitter page I heard about an interesting url: http://www.kirstieslostring.co.uk/
Our resident SEO guru assumed it was a link to a dodgy porn site. He would.

Where do I start with this? Monty’s cottage, from ‘Withnail and I’ – one of the most quoted films EVER – is up for auction by Savills on 16th February.
It’s starting price is £145,000 but you just know it’s going to go through the roof as rich movie geeks get all misty eyed at the [...]

Maybe it’s because I’m a curmudgeonly old misanthrope (no, no don’t protest, it’s true) but I’ve always fancied the idea of living on an island.
The only thing stopping me is a slight lack of cash, because unless I fancy a midge infested rock in some Canadian great lake, then the more salubrious islands are way [...]

As that old Chinese curse euphemistically states, ‘may you live in interesting times’ and 2008 was certainly interesting; with 2009 shaping up to be not just interesting but also fascinating, flabbergasting and possibly even gobsmacking.
Thankyou for all your support and comments in 2008 and from all of us at Winging It, cheers, sláinte and iechyd [...]
