What’s been going on? Let me tell you… Practically perfect in every way Boy Three has been treading the boards this week with Pace and came home one afternoon to announce that he’d been cast as Bert. His accent was every bit as good as DVD’s. I know they’ve had a bit of practice, but […]
Quote McQuoteface – If you don’t look after your body, where are you going to live?
When I started blogging it was more likely to be a brief little fart of an idea than a polished and honed piece of lit-er-ate-ewer. Any old post out there is far better than the incumbent state of blogstipation. That’s why I’m going to treat you lucky people to snack sized wisdom – quote-style. If […]
How to Recycle Unwanted Gifts
We’ve all been there. It’s Christmas or our birthday, and we’ve opened many presents. Most are amazing, however, some a little less so – what’s a person to do? Say thank you, and if it’s an ornament, place it somewhere “out of the way”; an item of clothing, wear it that one time; a gift […]

Or why there has never been a better time to be getting on a bit. There are times when it feels just, ever so slightly, too much hard work to keep up with the latest technology. When you crave for three TV channels and the wireless. When you yearn for a time when popular culture […]
All the things I’m not writing about this week
My head is very full at the moment and there are dozens of things I want to write about. I’ve already forgotten some of the most brilliant ideas and the rest are getting fuzzier. I’d like to theorise more about mental load and how to unload. I want to write poetically about what happens when […]
Ways To Give Back And Raise Money For Those In Need
Giving your time and effort to those who deserve it the most is always going to be a rewarding experience.
