Ties that bind

October 25th, 2011 · Comments Off on Ties that bind · Life

Over the weekend we went back to Essex for some family visiting. Sitting in Mum’s house I was looking at the many family photos that adorn the place and noticed that there were two photos I was in that must have been taken some time apart. I was doing the usual comparison of how much […]

The perils of the Bruce Willis vest in middle age

December 14th, 2010 · Comments Off on The perils of the Bruce Willis vest in middle age · Music

Let me say straight off that I enjoy Elmer Food Beat enormously, and was overjoyed to see that they returned to the stage in recent years even if it was just to relive past glories rather then produce anything new.  All I will say is that perhaps the singer might have considered not wearing the […]

I kissed a girl and I liked it

November 19th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Life

Never really thought much about Katy Perry.  Heard a few of her songs and didn’t dislike them, but never really had an opinion about her. Until now. I have now decided that she is brilliant.  I wonder why…

Any colour you like

September 9th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Life

About five or six years ago televisions were all silver – or at least silver coloured. Likewise all the peripherals were nearly all silver-coloured – the DVD players, video recorders (they were still on sale then), surround amplifiers and so on.  (By the way, in case nobody noticed, this is one of those boring idle […]

Fashion Statement

December 31st, 2007 · 3 Comments · Technology, Work

My brother-in-law also works in computers, but is much more ‘technical’ than me ((that’s a euphemism for ‘geeky’ I think)) – I know: it’s hard to believe from the photo isn’t it? Anyway, despite my comparative lack of skills, or should that be skillz?, I still get roped into a lot of favours for people, […]

The West Ham club website is pushing the new strip, complete with the new sponsor’s name plastered across it – the holiday company XL.com I might have to get one… its been a long time since I managed to squeeze into an XL shirt.

The Nightmare Before Christmas

March 26th, 2007 · Comments Off on The Nightmare Before Christmas · Life

On saturday afternoon we went up to Camden Lock. I had not been there for years, over 15 years I think. It was great to see Jayne’s reaction to the place with all its interesting clothes shops and endless market stalls. After a while you recover from the impact of seeing so many shops and […]

Oi – no trainers!

September 22nd, 2006 · 1 Comment · Politics

In the paper yesterday there was a small piece about Le Pen launching his 2007 presidential campaign. In a break from tradition he says he is willing to tolerate foreigners, or at least he is willing to encourage them to support him, providing they accept “our dresscode and our laws” Hang on… France has a […]

Only banana in Ghana?

June 23rd, 2006 · 1 Comment · Life

They won’t be doing the pogo in Togo, and it will still be Coca-Cola in Angola, but I’m willing to bet there will be a lot more than banana being consumed in Ghana tonight after they got through to the second round of the World Cup! While I am slightly tempted to dig out my […]
