This is me in my natural habitat, grinding out another session… The headphones stop people coming up to you asking how many sets you’ve got left 🙂
When God Lived In Kentish Town
I’m writing this late Sunday morning and this post is inspired by a song I heard on the radio this morning, which I’ve always liked. The song reminded me of a short story by Michael Marshall Smith, called “When God Lived In Kentish Town“. As far as titles for stories go, that one is definitely…
A Trip to the Dreaded Dentists
Let’s get one thing out of the way before we begin, I absolutely hate going to the dentists. The other thing is, whenever I go, it always reminds me of the cartoon Bob & Margaret, because Bob is a wayward dentist in it. If I had my way I’d never go, but I accept it’s…
The Octopus That Climbed Down Windows
At junior school, I used to sit next to a girl called Suzanne. Believe it or not, at school, they used to put two of us on washing up duty in the teachers staff room. Suzanne was always the one I ended up on duty with and she was a decidedly hard worker. Whatever she…
Running Up That Hill
I used to think running up hills was the hardest thing I ever did, but now I think it’s actually swimming. Still love the running though and I even recorded myself doing it once. Join me as I run up the hill and do a deal with God, a bit like Kate Bush…
16 Days of Deano – Day 5 (Dating Questions: What Ya Looking For?)
Well here we are on day 5 of 16 and what very well may be the epitaph of this blog when we reach number 16. I’m then going to pickle it in a big jar so it’s here, kicking along for prosperity while I’m busy doing other things, so if you’ve arrived here from the…

16 Days Of Deano – Day 3 (The Smell Of Freshly Mown Grass)
Another one from my archives. We’re building on the rainy days and Mondays theme/song but also adding freshly mown grass. Don’t worry it will all make sense when you hit play. Day 3 of 16 Days of Deano. The lovely smell of freshly mown grass in the morning and Martha’s unrequited love of daffodils…
16 Days Of Deano – Day 2 (When It’s Friday)
Another one from my archives. Day 2 of 16 Days of Deano. When it’s Friday…
16 Days Of Deano – Day 1 (Randomness)
I am doing something a bit different on this blog for the next 16 days/posts. The concept is simple – it’s a video of me from my archives. 1 video a day. Day 1 – Randomness
WhatsApp – The Bubble Typing Tease
I think it was AOL IM or MSN Messenger that used to tell people in a chat that the other person was typing. For me, those two were the sweet spot in history and I wrote about AOL IM in particular here. Seems like a great idea in theory. WhatsApp has it now as well…
Randomness Is As Randomness Does
I have to be in a good mood to do this, but I can be quite random and I get a lot of ideas very quickly. This isn’t going to be one of my long winded posts, I just wanted to share an old video I did. It’s random, possibly a bit surreal… and basically…
