Hey ho children! I'd have written this sooner but the information contained has required some time for me to process let alone be capable of talking about frankly.

As you all know I ran into N.L. the week after my birthday. All we got was twenty minutes together but since then I hadn't been able to stop thinking about him. It got so bad that I ( Read more... )

First off I want to start by apologising to all of my rabid regular readers. I know it’s been some time since my last journal but the truth is I simply haven’t known how to put things into words lately. Too many thoughts swirling around the old brain and not enough of an ability to process them efficiently. What with me turning 32 last month (I ( Read more... )

To my dearest N.L.,

This is probably one of the hardest and most difficult letters I have ever had to write and knowing that you may never even read it makes the task none the easier.

I was damaged when I was young and unprepared to defend against the things that broke me, and then further events conspired against me to finish the job so by the time  ( Read more... )

Evening guys and dolls. I hope that wherever you are the weather is much nicer than it is down our way. For over a week we've had nothing but wind, rain (lots and lots of bloody rain!) and extremely cold temperatures. At least we've avoided any flooding or power cuts though so it isn't all bad. Apart from the weather I have done an act of supreme ( Read more... )

What's this you say? A second journal entry in as many days? It's an Easter miracle! But no, not so, for I am hardly as pure as Jesus H. Christ (and incidentally what does the H stand for? I wonder if it's short for holy, hmmmm) nor would I want to be. I can't imagine Jesus on his days off from preaching to the masses sitting in a mud hut and ( Read more... )

Well, what a week. It's been a veritable roller-coaster of highs and lows from both a personal and emotional standpoint. As you may or may not know (all depending on whether you are a regular reader of my humble little journal here) I had a bit of a breakdown a few days back which left me feeling particularly fragile. This is not a good time for me ( Read more... )

Hey howdy hey folks! Yes it is I, fresh from the craptastic year that was 2011 and still alive and kicking... well sort of kicking in an off-balance type of way. Good to know or what eh? I quite enjoyed the end of last year because not only did I get the peaceful Crimblin that I wanted I also had my first holiday in seven years over the New Year ( Read more... )

Well I'll be damned! You came back again. What's wrong with you? Clearly you must be a glutton for punishment. Good for you! I hope you know how much I appreciate your continued readership, particularly when it is quite apparent that I don't exactly write about the most fun topics in the world. So seriously, thank you even if you are just a silent ( Read more... )

Bonjour, ciao, hola, and... hallo! Welcome to my little crazy world of stuff. Some of you may have been here before and if so thank you for coming back. Others may be first time visitors who have stumbled across this be accident. I feel it only fair to warn you that this is no sanitised Disney Wonderland but a place where anything can, and probably ( Read more... )

Gooooood morning all! Yes we may be into the last days of January and true the weather outside still sucks ass but hey it could be worse right? I mean seriously all you need to do is look at the news for half an hour or read a newspaper at which point you'd be thinking "Well hell son, at least my life doesn't suck that much!". True story. Anyway ( Read more... )
