A seasonal thing
Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why? It has to be the mountains in summer and the beach in winter. Here’s why. The thrill of over-exposure to wind, the grind of sand in every crack and sandwich, pales quickly, but that’s life on the beach in the UK. Go to the Med, swap windContinue reading “A seasonal thing”
Napoleon Bonaparte
If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why? He was a genius, gave us laws protecting the working man from feudal nastiness, sensible system of measurement based on the mass of a cubic centimetre of water, city planning – where to end the list of achievements. One could go on.Continue reading “Napoleon Bonaparte”
What else have we?
Do you trust your instincts? You only have your accumulated wisdom and that translates to a gut feeling. But humankind has never had so much opportunity to check their instincts and there have never been so many swindlers trying to wreck us. Stay safe.

First impression
What’s the first impression you want to give people? Cool but honest. Articulate but not a bullshitter, which I probably am, so gotta hide that one. Laid back, but short of horizontal.

I paid, the bank took so much in charges that it wasContinue reading “Sewing machines”
Funny man

He suffered life-long anguish and perhaps his grief was the real reason for the bellicose outbursts, which reflected his inability to take responsibility for theContinue reading “Funny man”
History foibles
What major historical events do you remember? Coronation of Elizabeth 2. It rained, I was as bored as a five year old could be. Ugh. JFK. I was on my way to the Fairfield Halls to see some nonsense plays by Ionesco. How apt. We still don’t know the truth. 6 day war. I rememberContinue reading “History foibles”
Just a million from his billions
If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to? How to stop small-boat migration. No one wants to leave their home. By home, I mean, roots. Migration occurs because the land can’t support you and/or some bastard in charge wants to see your bollocks go through the mangle. ThatContinue reading “Just a million from his billions”
