I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
So… let’s see… to add to the Sleep Apnoea, ADHD and the rest… I now have Diverticulitis to add to the list. We’re not sure about the Coeliac disease and the gluten intolerance… we’ll find out in a week or three when I go back for the results. Still… in some ways it’s good to … More Well… I'm still here! 🙂
Off later on to get ‘scoped’ from both ends… ewww… just the thought is enough to make me want to change my mind! What’s more the lack of dinner last night and breakfast this morning is causing hypoglycaemia so I’m already a bit wobbly… and without even a glass of water to look forward to … More Another quiet day
England lost to Australia in the 20/20 version of the game last night by a world record margin What else is there to say. The one day series starts at the MCG on Friday… I wonder if anyone will bother turning up to watch?
Bought a TomTom GO500 a year ago and along with almost everything else electrical in the house, it ‘died’ a few weeks ago. As it’s still under warranty we took it back to be fixed. Got a call yesterday to say it was ready but when we went to get it they’d actually replaced it … More TomTom GPS navigation.
Not sure how or why it happened but I just realised the times for all the posts I’ve made with this template have been using the wrong time… in fact about 11 hours behind! I think it must have been set to UST/GMT. Anyway – I changed it to show the correct time… I think… … More Time adjusted.
Not sure when the 12 days of Xmas ended… if they have… but I’m finally getting the last of the outside decorations down and boxed ready to be dragged out again in a few months to be reused… well those that still work then will be used – maybe. Right now of course I’m not … More The 12 days of Xmas
Yesterday a little girl in France watched horrified as a helicopter dropped from the sky and killed her parents as they walked outside a restaurant in the Carmargue. Now that tale in itself is horrible enough to raise the sympathies of anyone who reads it… so *why* did the journalists at news.com decide to go … More Journalism… gawd… words fail me.
Just a reminder that it was around this time in 1991 that the decisions were being made to attack Iraq to force them out of their occupation of Kuwait. I’ve not been to Kuwait and know very little about it, but I wonder if ‘democracy and the rule of law’ was imposed *there* as a … More Desert Storm – Jan 1991
Bearing in mind how brightly coloured and slow moving lots of them are it’s amazing they’ve managed to survive and flourish as species. Ok some may be poisonous… but many aren’t. Besides, surely after all these millions of years something would have developed an immunity to them and wiped them out? I’m glad they haven’t … More Butterflies.
I have learned that I’m too old to drink half pints of Muscat… and then expect to be able to play table-tennis afterwards. I’m not very good to begin with and the effects of the alcohol make it even harder. Actually, in retrospect, I think it was perhaps a little silly to buy a 2 … More I have learned…
