Its so hard to get kids to watch anything with you these days. War of the Planet of the Apes is due out in a week or so, to get ready me and the wife sat down to watch number 1 (Rise) and then as we were in the mood number 2 (Dawn) The 13…
Well this Camp Nano started the same as the other time I tried it, in that I didn’t do anything and although I knew I had to plan for it I haven’t done enough and now its upon me I am not ready and I don’t want to rush it. I’m also trying to get…
I’ve been told I have a problem, my family hasn’t gone as far as an intervention but I always feel they are on the verge. I am on course talking about my addiction to buying books. I saw a meme a while ago that said book buying and book reading were two different hobbies and…
To assist in my 2015 goals (I nearly called them resolutions there) I decided to try a challenge, a Writer I was looking at a while ago was doing a story a week which I thought was amazing. Unfortunately that is an unrealistic goal for me, but I could do a story a month. So…

Spoiler alert, there may be things in here you may not want to know so read on with caution. Easy to please… Its a running joke with a couple of my friends that when it comes to TV and Film I am easy to please, despite what they think it isn’t that I have bad…
The book has arrived and I have started it. It’s very strange starting to read and book with the knowledge that I am not likely to be seeing Dragons or space flight. But this could be a good thing, reading books that are in genres that I would normally not read. On with the challenge…
To get the creative juices flowing again I am going to do another Blogging challenge. It is daft to have to do something like this just to get me Blogging every day, but I seem to keep to it when I am on a “challenge” I will try and make some of the subjects more…
