Writer's Block: Your First Record
It wasn't one. It was two: the first two albums by the Police: Outlandos D'Amour and Zenyatta Mondatta. £1.99 each, from the newly opened Our Price records chain... long since defunct. My older brother borrowed them, and gave them away! We didn't talk for two years after that. It's amazing how you can do that whilst living under the same roof. -
When the Going Gets Tough...
I remember a time when buses were huge. They were the biggest vehicles on the road and a place where you actually got to know your 'other' neighbours. The folk that traveled the same route as you everyday, there and back (wherever there happened to be). I traveled for six years along a three mile journey to school near Wormwood Scrubs and got to ( Read more... ) -
Take this as a warning...
Ok, for all two of you that read my blog, this is now a dump for my creative efforts. Several pokes to the ribs have promptd me to dust off the feather quill last used in 1591, when I wrote Carry on Shakespeare, little knowing it would provoke him to write his classics.

Alright, alright... I'm here!
I am so crap at posting. I think maybe I have too much of a life, or maybe just too much of someone else's life these days.

Why is it that "all of the good ones are taken"... away?
This is so fucking weird. I have only just found out about Chris Boring... Muzikant... I have had so little time to log in lately, no pc yet sorted, as I am moving again and public pcs seem so time and user friendly. Besides it's good to get away from depending on onlining when you have a child and little way to get a life otherwise. But them ( Read more... ) -

I am assuming in this day and age of advanced technology particularly when it comes to networked/tele/web communications that it is possible for the US to receive radio broadcasts from the UK. If so and anyone is interested in either ( Read more... ) -
Sometimes I REALLY like the way someone expresses themselves
I was doing a bit of research on the British Constitution and the Code Napoleon (on which the US constitution is based), and came across the following statement. I just really liked what the writer had to say, and the way he said it, because I know at times I have felt the same about other subjects ( Read more... ) -
New Years Dissolutions
It's 2005 and I am ashamed to say that despite all my trials and tribulations these past couple of years, I am forced to concede my position on two issues I thought I would NEVER give up on ( Read more... )
