Since I moved to Brighton 4 years ago, I have been wanting to learn and develop specific hobbies.

1. hand drumming
2. dinghy sailing, and
3. open canoeing

hand drumming, well, the first one should have been easy considering I have a djembe already, and I have never played it in a group. considering how many workshops there are in Brighton we are lucky to have the skills and talent in Brighton, however the days/dates always seemed to clash.. finally tonight I have been to my first class > west african hand drumming by Batafon Arts.. fantastic, and i can still use my hands to type after nearly two and a half hours.. in the beautiful unitarian church.

The latest web site to be added to various quality portals is “programmer meet designer”.

http://programmermeetdesigner.com/

PMD helps programmers and designers partner up to make websites and web applications that look and work great.

We shall see if its any good in a few weeks after scanning the quality of leads. I dont tend to get much work from sites like these, but the user interface is clear and I think it may attract the more discerning and skilled developer/designer/programmer.

One way of judging this is by the price of the jobs, there doesnt seem to be many “myspace clone for $200″ deals here
