I’ve completed 51 things on my 101 list. Yay! Er you don’t seem too impressed. Fair enough. It’s not like they were all world changing events – not for you anyway. For me, well, OK perhaps world changing would be over egging it a bit, but all very nice things to have achieved. Glad to [...]

I’ve found a bunch of useless old motorcycle parts hanging around. Now to turn them into useful motorcycle parts.
I’ll say up front that I haven’t, in fact, had a quiet word with God about a career move, although what with the way the last week has gone it wouldn’t surprise me that if I had a sudden new love of dogma, kneeing and a much reduced reading list (OK, actually this would surprise [...]

I nearly deleted my list 101 page. When I drew it up I told myself that it is a bit of fun (and I bunged a few funny things on it) and that I would enjoy completing it and that, for the more difficult tasks, it would remind me to keep on it and encourage [...]

The landlord, although a little stunned, cuts some stalks from a bamboo [...]

Today I’m thinking about jokes. Mostly I’m thinking that I don’t remember them very well. I suppose I prefer a visual gag (Harold Lloyd especially), but I also enjoy spoken gags that play on words.

I was searching around the Internet due to boredom and somehow I ended up on the blog of Lindsay Morgan Wright (how cool is that name?), I learned about banned books and a bit about what she does and doesn’t do. She also has a page about 101 things in 1001 days where she lists [...]

No. No Facebook. No MySpace. No I won’t fill up my page with embarrassing photos, personal information or my private life. I am not an idiot and I won’t let everybody have access to information about myself that I wouldn’t tell the government, even under treat of jail. Hell, no I’m not stupid enough to [...]
