And a happy Chinese New Year to all my readers. The coming of Chinese New Year is marked by many things - red lanterns, firecrackers, red packets and of course - travel so that families can reunite for the New Year period. And the travel part normally applies to me as I normally head to my parents for the weekend. Alas this year, other things have conspired against … [Read more...]
An apology: I mess up sometimes.
And I do occasional - more so at the moment. From not paying attention to my inbox (and having twitter go mad on my desktop), to having to respond to articles late at night. The fact is this: I lifted content from John at Australian Business Traveller over the Hong Kong EChannel article and didn't credit it - and a substantial chunk too. I have published an apology on … [Read more...]
Minimal updates for a while
My Dear Readers, both far and wide. At the moment, I'm reducing my blog output for a bit due to some big matters closer to home that affect my current job and work position. The fact is at the moment due to Her Majesties Government acting like a bunch of cost cutting lunatics, The Department of Health cutting back funding and Local NHS organisations forgetting the drive … [Read more...]
Limited updates ahead
Hi all. Due to a catastrophic failure on my computer, there will be limited updates for the next few days. If I'm lucky, I could be online tomorrow. If I'm not... Well I'll see. Apologies, but this is way beyond my control at this time (and updating using the phone app is a pain up the jacksie) Thanks for your understanding. … [Read more...]
2000 Posts – A restrospective and a note of thanks
On the 20th May 2009, I started up a little blog on Blogger called GettoIFE. Then I realised I spelt it wrong and put the 'H' in, to make it GhettoIFE.com. I thought it'd be useful to put some of my travel thoughts down, give an outlet to those thoughts, mix in my bad sense of humour and sarcasm, whilst covering some points of travel that aren't covered through the … [Read more...]
BLOG ADMIN: A message to the grammar checkers out there.
Dear Grammar and English Checkers out there. What you’ll find in this blog is a poor collection of language and execution of the English Language for which I can only apologise. I however ask for moment of silence and some of your understanding as I explain my thoughts… and some issues I have - and have to muddle through most days. For some of us, it is very hard to … [Read more...]

Happy New Year!
Well the server clock as ticked over, so I'm Wishing you all Happy New Year and safe travels over the coming year! May your travels be on time, your miles plentiful, every trip a safe one, and your luggage not lost or destroyed by any security agency. In the year ahead, I'm hoping for more of the usual shenanigans that you've come to expect, as well as (hopefully) a few … [Read more...]
An update on my ethics and how this blog runs…
A semi-serious blog entry as there's been a bit bounding around about referral fees and affiliates and as such on various other blogs, and how it affects the quality of the blog information (i.e. a blog entry turning into an advert for a product). I've been watching this very carefully and how others are handling the situation, and thought it is best that I state my position … [Read more...]
Idea… Video Trip Report/Video Review…
So I'm idly thinking of the next trip report, and I'm seeing the current fashion to do video trip report/review. First up - good or bad idea? And Secondly, apart from my bad camera work, what would you want it to contain? Thoughts welcome as I think about this... what I'm thinking could be a suspect idea at best.... … [Read more...]
