On Gods, Heroes, and Men in OD

Later tonight, I’m going to do another megadump of pics from the weekend. Tomorrow, I’ll write about the Supreme Court ruling. In this entry, however, I’ll talk about Newcastle and Mythos. Now...

Look ate the cute spider! in OD

Innit absolutely adorable? As you can tell from my last entry, I finished reading The Testaments.  It’s good.  It’s very good.  My plan was to read it quickly but the prose was so gorgeous that...

Two pieces of advice in OD

Read The Testaments.  It’s fucking awesome and the prose is achingly beautiful. Watch Undone on Amazon Prime.  It’s brilliant and trippy and the rotoscoping really works. Will

Horror Vacui *EDIT* in OD

I finally got the cross stitch my friend gave me for my birthday last year framed. Here’s a close up: It’s not been done the way that cross stitch is usually framed as my friend didn’t leave ...


I know, I know, I said no more politics for a while.  But no-one saw this coming… One of the things I forgot to mention in my last entry was the court case.  Today, the High Court in Scotland r...


So, I wasn’t going to do another political entry this soon. But then @sleepygene said he was expecting one. So, here it is. Yesterday was a quiet day in Parliament. Not much happened. I am, of...

What The Deuce? in OD

Yesterday was week 2 of swimming. It went better than last week, but only slightly. There’s a fitness centre in town that has a smaller swimming pool. I’m going to get a free day pass and give i...


I know, I know, another political entry. But I thought I’d just wrap up the week. By the way, the title is our Prime Ministers full name. On Monday, Hillary Benn tweeted out the cross party bi...

More political fun in OD

Yes, it’s another political entry. No, I’m not apologising. Today was the debate and votes on the anti No Deal bill. There were a few amendments. One amendment passed. Why? The Government didn...

Null and void *UPDATE* in OD

Yeah, it’s another political entry. In British politics, we have the phrase “Crossing the Floor”. This is when an MP leaves the party of which they are currently a member, usually to join anoth...

A little political lightness in OD

Today, our esteemed Prime Minister held a press conference outside 10 Downing Street.  It was basically about nothing except pleading with potential Tory rebels not to vote against the Governmen...

Not so swimmingly… in OD

So, I’ve decided it’s time to get shot of the Buddha belly.  Can’t really call it a beer belly any more, really. With my particular health issues, I decided that swimming would be the best idea...

Going prorogue in OD

Yeah, it’s a political entry. Last time I did one of these, it ended with Boris Johnston being elected leader of the Tory party and, therefore, Prime Minister (or Britain Trump, I’ll let you gu...

ABDN pics in OD

AKA: in which Will decides to see how many pics he can post in a single entry before OD cries Uncle and tells him to stop playing silly buggers. Entry pic is my new incense burner in full flow....

Abdn in OD

My new backflow incense burner.  Hopefully, I’ll get a pic of it working properly later. So, my journey home was an… experience.  I was running late to leave for the station, so I decided to ge...

Just cos I can in OD

I’m writing this from the train home.  We’re currently at Berwick, to be specific. Bit of a mare with this trip.  Will share all next Tuesday, likely. Will

Shut the door, have a seat in OD

First of all, thank you all for the notes on my last entry. My entry pic is what happens when you discover that your blue shirt hasn’t been washed enough not to run. I have my tablet back!  I ...

RIP Tia in OD

I’ve just got off the phone with my mum and she gave me bad news. Her dog Tia died in her sleep on Sunday. It’s not a huge shock, she’s not been in good health for a while.  She was about 15 y...

Insert title here in OD

The Knife Angel. There was a knife amnesty and all of the knives surrendered (over 100,000) were sent to the British Ironworks Centre who, under the guidance of sculptor Alfie Bradley, turned...


Every weekday morning, I listen to James O’Brien.  I always did listen to Mystery Hour (which is also available as a podcast, which I highly recommend you listen to), but I found I was basically...


So, yeah, got the hair cut.  The recent heatwave just reminded me it needed done. FSM I wish I could grow long hair, but it defies gravity. The shades are because I realised I hadn’t shown the...

No so inklined in OD

Got a phone call from the tattoo studio today.  The artist doing my new ink has transport issues and, therefore, can’t get in. So, I’m not getting it done today.  It’s been postponed til next S...

If you are so inklined… in OD

You see, I had a plan. I had to go into town yesterday for an appointment.  My plan was to then go to pick up my prescription, fill it then go home.  And subsequently spend Monday in the house....
