As promised, today I've added photos from Sunday's FishFest gig in Irvine, California.

I've improved the design and layout for this blog a bit more now. It still needs a few tweaks before I unleash it on the unsuspecting public though.

Found out today that poor old Colin Walker (one of d:'s tech guys, and a very nice chap) isn't too well. Best wishes to him, let's hope he is better soon.

So the d.org.uk blog is established. I haven't spent too much time sorting out the template yet, so before anyone says it, yes I know it doesn't look quite right. I'll work on that when I have more time, but the main thing is, it's readable (just about).

That brings me to my next point. For now I'm not going to publicise the blog. I'll give it a few days for me to get used to posting, sort out the design and layout, and actually have a few posts in here worth reading (if that ever happens!). So at the moment, the only way anyone could read this is if they stumble onto it. The address of the blog would be easy (obvious) to guess, so if anyone just happens to try typing delirious.org.uk/blog then they'll find it. But apart from that, I'm not advertising the fact that I've started this just yet. All in good time. Despite the fact that nobody is reading this at the moment, I'll keep going in the knowledge that one day somebody might read this in the archive.

So in terms of the site... today I have added some photos from the Spirit West Coast festival in California. My good friend Becky Smith sent them to me (as she has done with practically every d: gig in CA for the past 5 years!), and hopefully there will be some more to come tomorrow from the FishFest gig as well.

The d: boys are (as I type) flying home from the US for a well deserved few days of rest. Having spent the last week flying and travelling around the west coast of America, they probably need a month to recover. Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for the UK fans, they'll be back on the road in the UK next week with a few festivals.

I've been thinking about a 'blog' for sometime now. I would have started it sooner. It's not that I'm opposed to the idea, it's just that I'm not sure that I really want to tell the world every little details about my life. I'm a fairly private kind of person. So finally I settled on this idea. The Delirious.org.uk blog will be the place where I share a few bits and pieces that are going on with the site, and that are relevant or related to it. Sometimes there are small pieces of news that don't make it to the site, so maybe they'll appear here. In general, I'll just be talking about all things Delirious[.org.uk].

So, to start things off simply... Hi, I'm Dave. I run the website: Delirious.org.uk

Some people will probably think I already have enough places on the web to sound-off with my d: related opinions and thoughts. Others have said I don't give enough away. It's the old adage of "you can't please all of the people all of the time". So anyway, let's see how this goes.

Stay tuned (if you're interested), I'll post when I have things to say.
