There is a trending topic on Twitter at the moment called #10yearsago which got me thinking a bit about where I was and what I was up to ten years ago today, and it is a bit scary to realise how much has gone on.

Local Boy In The Photograph
November 21st, 2008 · 2 Comments · Life
I do not normally take part in these memes that go flying around. Partly because I rarely get tagged, or do not notice when I do, but mainly because I can’t think of a non-lame response. I have decided to make an exception to this one from Jo. It is a photographic one, which makes […]

Book meme misery
August 31st, 2006 · 2 Comments · Life
I have seen this book meme thing going around like a case of avian flu and been keeping my head down, hoping that everyone has forgotten about me – but Paulie found me out. My mind goes blank at this sort of thing and its tempting to cop-out and just give the Porridge answer (“I […]

Having been tagged by the timelord, I suppose I am honour-bound to make an attempt at this meme where you have to complete all these statements. I would rather not, but lets have a crack anyway… I am older than I feel I want Pink Floyd to get back together for one last tour I […]
Its what I would have chosen.

Apparently I belong in Amsterdam. I try to avoid all those quiz things, but often give in to temptation, as I did with this one called what European city do you belong in? from Blogthings. The thing is, this one has got it exactly right. There are a few places in the World where I […]

Song titles

A few people have been doing this, so I thought I would have a go. I had four bites of the cherry as I could not decide between Megadeth, REM and Pet Shop Boys but feel almost honour-bound to do Gang of Four. It sort of makes up for being last on the bandwagon. The […]

Desert Island Discs
March 4th, 2006 · 4 Comments · Music
I had an email from Lisa about this the other day, which I guess means that my two days are up. It is supposed to be 8 songs which mean stuff to you, with reasons. Just 8?? I had a desert island discs page on my first website back in the 90s. It was part […]

Seven sevens

Damn. Jo tagged me on this. My mind is a bit blank, but I will try… Seven things to do before I die Seven things I cannot do Seven things that attract me to my spouse Seven things I say most often Seven books (or series) I love Seven movies I watch over and over […]
The book meme
June 13th, 2005 · Comments Off on The book meme · Life
Well Bloggers4Labour tagged me, so I will try to rise to the challenge… 1) Total number of books I’ve owned Its hard to tell. A few years ago, in a moment of clarity, I got rid of a huge box of Star Trek books, and have lost a few along the way, and we gave […]
