I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Was talking to a guy on Friday who had been burgled recently. He was telling us how he, his wife and daughters had been in the house at the time and how the thievess s had bashed their dog to keep it quiet, taken the keys to his and his wife’s cars, loaded them with … More It's a bit alarming.
I’ve adjusted the settings to the gallery at Imagery so that I manually register anyone who wants to join, assuming I know and trust them – which means you don’t get a ‘registration mail’. ================== Edit: You’ll all be glad to know I accidentally deleted everyone 🙂 Please rejoin and I’ll activate you when I … More Gallery active, activated and operational.
Finally I raised the white flag and waved it about. Yes… I finally gave up and asked for a referral to a back specialist. The referred pain in my hip is steadily increasing and taking anti-inflammatories and aspirin or paracetamol or whatever simply isn’t working any more. I’ve now got pains down my right leg … More Ok… I surrender!
The sister just sent be a picture of a woodpecker sitting on her bird table. Ntp sure if she’s going to upload it to the gallery so I’ve reproduced it here. It’s a little fuzzy because she shot it though a window quickly to catch it before it flew away, but it’s clear what it … More Blue Jay way…
Just rebuilt the front page of the ODPS. I think it looks ok obviously but I can’t tell how it looks to visitors so if you’d click on the link and let me know what you think I’d appreciate it. In theory the new ODPS logo will be at top left on all pages of … More Feedback please?

As we turned into our street we saw a rabbit in the middle of the road. Clearly it was transfixed but the … More Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit…
Long conversation with the daughter in the UK this morning via ‘chat’. A week or so ago she’d gone to her GP about a problem with one of the kids and after chatting to her had referred *her* to a psychiatrist. Ok I know it sounds ‘bad’ but there were real reasons for her to … More Genetic Inheritance.
The daughter in the UK was asking the other day about Rhubarb Crumble and how best to make it. I love ‘crumbles’. They are so simple to make but such a sweet treat and useful for cooking all sorts of fruits. The traditional apple’ is a favourite, but for me so are blackberry and apple, … More Rhubarb Crumble
Interesting story on the BBC News site about Cherie Blair who is writing her memoirs. She is refusing to resign as a judge even though there have been comments the memoirs are inappropriate for someone in her position. That argument is something I’m not really interested in actually, what I found remarkable was the way … More Bias at the Beeb?
The wife is back riding the Bullet Bus. I’ve mentioned this bus before, because in the absence of a sensible public service these private operators have stepped into the breach and created a service that is both cheap and convenient… surely a first for commuters? 🙂 Yet there is one small quibble. To contact the … More The Bullet Bus
