For everyday thoughts and reflections.
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…
Before the days of Facebook there used to be sites where you could just chat to interesting people and get to know them. Now it’s either really dating sites or social media. I don’t really like social media much and dating sites come with all that baggage of expectation in terms of what people are…
Don’t You Cry For Me Lets all embrace the madness. Join me, one more time… A single video doesn’t normally qualify as a post on here, but this time I’m making an exception. This is post number 50. Half way through the ride (maybe).
Here is a quick post today. It’s one of my favourite videos of me and the family in a spontaneous silly dance and the second one is me talking about a classmate at school that taught me the only thing on keyboard I knew for the entirety of music class for the two years I…
Ladies and Gents, we are in the middle of an epidemic. It involves the use of a thumb and a mobile phone. People doing this will walk into you whilst in a trance that is hard to shake off. This happened to me only the other day in the supermarket. A bloke was walking along,…
I’ve got mixed feelings about online dating. Back in the early days of the internet it was a bit different. In the early(ish) 2000’s we had Lycos and I went on that on a whim. There were chat sites that were basically dating sites in disguise…and then there were dating sites which I never really…
From time to time this thing I once heard, springs to to mind and it is as follows: “There’s Only So Many Sunsets” I don’t know where I heard this, but it is something that stuck with me. Of course, what this is referring to is that that we will all only see so many…
Back in the noughties, things like Facebook and Instagram hadn’t reached critical mass, which meant chat sites were pretty popular, along with messengers like MSN and AOL IM. Mobile Phones hadn’t taken over the landscape, so using these things still made you feel like something of a hipster. As you know, when a hipster walks…
Unless you’ve stumbled across some of the stuff I’ve written in the past, you’ve probably never heard of Fisetin. It’s found naturally at low levels in some foods, the highest of which are strawberries. Strawberries are basically the OG for humans in the quest for natural Fisetin. It’s a bit like the food equivalent of…
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…
