BBC News: Should we believe it? Is Social Media the Alternative?
BBC News – It’s all Doom! All the recent fuss over BBC News has got me wondering about whether I’m getting the full unabridged version of the facts. Everywhere on social media I read that it’s biased and frankly misleading. So today I decided to put the news on the TV to see what all…

Aging disgracefully: Well, Is There Any Other Way?
Aging disgracefully, is that my plan, or is it just how things will pan out, I wonder? The ‘R’ Word Last week we were sitting in the garden. (It couldn’t have been this week since it hasn’t stopped raining for long enough to go outside let alone sit out there) Anyway, we were talking about…

Barcelona Baby! – I Need to do This More Often!
Barcelona Baby! Yep, I’ve been on my travels! You could be forgiven for thinking that I’d given up blogging. You’d be wrong of course. I’ve just taken a few weeks out to get my sorry arse out of the cold wet and miserable UK in search of some sun. After a week in Zante in…

Shock News: I’m Not…

Something to get my teeth stuck into: The Election!
I need something to get my teeth stuck into! I seem to have been set adrift recently, without doubt I’ve been off course over the last few weeks. For the first time in many months I found myself without an opinion and nothing much to say. Well relatively speaking anyway. If you’d popped into Nail…

Armageddon? No, It’s Just The Local Elections
At the time of writing Armageddon hadn’t quite arrived in the UK, but you could be forgiven for thinking it had. Last week we had horses covered in blood running amok on the streets of London, whilst Big Ben suddenly stopped at precisely 9am. Scary stuff. Was the world coming to an end? Had someone…

Latest Observations: The SAS has arrived at the Stadium!
OK, you’ve asked for it, here are my latest observations! The dawn chorus has started. There are 85 million birds on my roof having a rave and the bloody cat is nowhere to be seen, again. Presumably she’ll turn up the moment I pour milk into my cereal. That’s what usually happens if I decide…

Dating round two
Why am I doing this? Here it is, dating round two! As you are no doubt already aware from my previous rants, I have recently joined a dating site. This is nothing unusual these days, since meeting anyone in social situations is fraught with problems. Even striking up a conversation with another person appears to…

I think I could be dead!
Am I going mad? Now you may not all agree with this, but I think I’m a relatively level headed pragmatic individual. Not prone to delusional episodes or paranoia. However, I think I could be dead. No, I’m being serious. I’ve just had to check that I can’t walk through walls and haven’t suddenly become…
