Well, It was my birthday a couple of days ago. 39 now, on the slippery slope to the next major milestone. The day was spent with my wife and was going to be a Flamingo land visit, we got there to find it was nearing the end of a 2 week close down (I didn’t…
So this is my first post of June 17, I was going to give myself a word count for each day but instead I think it is best at this point to just give myself a small goal and then build up. I am in the middle of my week off and for most of…
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…

I’m not sure what they think the point is, as up to now they have been downloaded over 100,000 times, and even though the company have took…
It’s the weekend  again and a mate has been round so we have been watching a film, and Big  Brother of course. Because of this I have been delayed doing my Blog post for the 2nd, but as I am still awake I am going to count this for the post so I haven’t missed…
