Not a lot to write about over the recent past. Unlocked down Britain has been incredibly dull. The arrival of variants has been greeted with the hyperventilating hysteria that would be suited to Ebola but is a dash over the top for most of us faced with Covid. The trend to reach for the fascist … Continue reading Back again…and a Happy Christmas to one and all…

Life In An Expanding Universe…
Well the coming week is alive with possibilities. I get a haircut and my first round of vaccine on Tuesday. I thought about spreading these hallowed events out to prolong the excitement but on the other hand I wanted them both as soon as possible in order to try and get back to normal. After … Continue reading Life In An Expanding Universe…
R.I.P.
The end of an era. HRH Prince Philip passed away this week. Much coverage in the press and elsewhere. Most of it at least respectful. Whatever your views of the institution of the monarchy he was still someone's husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather and a decorated veteran who used his position to help others. His … Continue reading R.I.P.

My solution to this … Continue reading On The Serious Matter Of Pens

I can't bore on about my exciting social scene, partly because it was never that dramatic and partly because who gives a … Continue reading Juggling…
Lockdown, Resolutions & Micro Changes
I resolved to be a better blogger this year. To have a plan. To have a consistent theme to blog on and to write at least once a week. Well. You know what? I have failed to keep to this simple formula. But I am not downcast, here is why. Firstly, beating yourself up about … Continue reading Lockdown, Resolutions & Micro Changes
Prisoner No More!
I am not a number, I am a free man. It applied to Patrick McGoohan's character and it applies to me. Today I took a step I should have taken years ago. I deleted Facebook. I exterminated that permanent little grey cloud nagging in my phone and computer. It was not easy. Despite resolving to … Continue reading Prisoner No More!
