Epic Timing
Haven’t written for about a month, and there is good reason. Things have been a bit up and down. Somehow I managed to get myself made redundant 3 weeks before Christmas. I know, epic timing. I’m ...
Almost Naked Animals
We were scheduled to make a trip down to Devon for the weekend but postponed it due to a sore throat. Mother’s hospital operation to restore her failing sight is due very soon and we didn’t want ...
I need a Landrover and an assault rifle
Well, it’s been a bad week for the world. Not only has Trump somehow managed to become the most powerful man in the world, we’re also facing a future where Toblerones have fewer triangles in each...
I took the boy to Madame Tussaud's (Pictures)
On Friday I took the boy to Madame Tussaud’s because it was a day off school for him, and the dragon had to work. Normally a trip like that would have involved the dragon of course, but she has a...
Can I get a Hallelujah!
It’s Thursday, but I have a day off tomorrow. Can I get a Hallelujah! And let me tell you what I am going to do with that day off. I’m going to take the boy into the city and visit Madame Tussaud...
Everyone has done this survey
What country do you call home? Do you like it? Any plans to defect? If you could live anywhere in the world and didn’t have the usual constraints (e.g. family, work), where would you choose? I li...
deep and impenetrable silence
The internet Nazis at my office have tied down web access to such an extent that I am leaving earlier because I can’t stand the tedium any longer. I can’t decide whether I am doing less work. I a...
The Uke Build Project
My ukulele self-build project has come to an end. Here are some details: I based the uke on this kit from Amazon. It was cheap, and my feeling was if I screw it up, I can just chalk it up to e...
That's just silly
I saw a family saying goodbye to each other at the station this morning. There were three generations. The grandparents were putting their children and grandchildren on the train. It made me thin...
Rambling
So, Le Weekend, I swam twice this weekend, once at the local pool for nudie night and then again at the Oasis for playing with the boy. He managed to get a nose bleed after a particularly dramat...
I never did surveys - until now
They’ve tied down our internet access at work so tightly now I can’t access anything. Except, it transpires, prosebox. So in celebration of this, here is a survey. I had to do something in protes...
News with Pictures
Much has been happening in my life since I last wrote. Firstly, we spent a week in Ireland. I have never been to Ireland before. We had good weather and packed a lot in to just 5 days. Well actua...
Large picture entry (slightly NSFW)...
It’s my birthday today. At one time I could keep it a secret, but facebook won’t allow that any more. It’s been a good day any way. The boy and the lady of my life gave me presents and I came hom...
It was like there was no gap
Been a while since I wrote again. I still haven’t posted naked bike ride pictures and I’m sure there were other pictures I wanted to post. I am writing this at work. I am going to try and leave e...
High Drama
Last night there was high drama in my street. We were woken at 4am by shouting and banging of wheelie bins. From the bedroom I could see a deranged nutter in the street below throwing pebbles at ...
bit of a sausage fest
Well it was World Naked Bike Ride (London) weekend and I attended for the sixth consecutive year. The weather wasn’t perfect but the rain kept away and it wasn’t cold. There were thousands of rid...
He retired without telling me
I haven’t written for ages I know. I lost the will to write, and I’m not sure why. This is an attempt to start up again, because it was important to me at one time. I thought of three things to w...
I accidentally bought a banjo
We went away last weekend (31st-1st) to Stratford upon Avon to celebrate the dragon’s birthday. It was nice. We stayed at a hotel, went swimming in the pool, went to visit Shakespeare’s old house...
Amazon Lockers - Witchcraft
Well today (Thursday) started well. I couldn’t find my office pass, the coffee machine was broken, and I had to return an Amazon purchase today. More about that later. On the plus side, all five ...

I'm still here...
I haven’t written for so long. I spend so much time working and doing things I have to do, I get no time for things I want to do. It’s the same for almost everyone I suppose. Lets have a look at ...
A quick survey
FOODOLOGY What is your salad dressing of choice? Does chilli sauce count? What is your favorite sit-down restaurant? YuMe is pretty cool. What food could you eat every day for two weeks and not...
Some thoughts on Trump and a Nerdy Conversation
I’m not American and I don’t pretend to understand American politics, but this Trump clown is fascinating to me. Initially I assumed he was just another idiot who likes the sound of his own voice...
Nudist Soup
I can’t let this entry go by without mentioning the terrorist events in Paris. I was going to write a whole ranty entry. But I’m not going to get angry, that’s what these scumbags want. Suffice t...
I bet Satan would order an espresso
OK, been a while, here’s some stuff: This morning I overslept because I forgot to set the alarm clock last night. Luckily the standard apalling service provided by Great Western Railway meant my ...
