During our first day on our Catalonia trip for a first night, we stayed at Girona - Hotel Ultonia.
For a start I must admit - I wanted to book another less expensive hotel, but that was out of city center - so hell, for a sake of a couple of bucks we decided to book something valuable in the city center.
But to keep up with the costs - I found it's more affordable if you are using hotelclub.com rather booking.com. Basically, it works like…

Working with complex Drupal projects I'm always trying to escape many rewrites of existing Drupal built-in functionality.
This time I got a client's request to have a user edit form with two-level admin: One for username and password information - the second for custom user profile fields, like occupation, location, gender, etc.
At the start I said - well, let's use the Profile2 module, to handle this task, but soon I found there are bugs, and…

Today working on a customer's Drupal project, I found a kind of strange need - to display for authenticated users their flagged content in a drop-down menu - kinda Facebook, LinkedIn behavior, when you click on gear icon and magic happens - you see your latest messages, invitations, and e.t.c.

The other day was damned hot in Tbilisi, and we decided to take a minibus to head to Borjomi (temperature there is significantly cooler than in Tbilisi). Said - done. In matter of few hours we were at Borjomi National Park eating barbecue and figuring out - should we stay or should we leave (As the song of The Clash - Should I stay or should I go).
Since this was not the first time visiting Borjomi and staying overnight here, we already knew -…
The Summers in Tbilisi can get damn hot, I mean +40 Celsius, common - it's not serious without air conditioning. And I'm not the person complaining.
So we decided to head to Borjomi, visit Borjomi National Park for some fresh and mountainous air, and to find a boutique hotel for an overnight stay.
This is not the first time of me heading to Borjomi, the last time I was there was during our rafting trip. As well you can find a photo set of…
