“You know my hips don’t lie,
And I’m starting to feel it’s right”

Hey, A bit of a late post from me, but it’s been one of those strangely busy evenings. I clearly remember coming home before six and then after that, it was all a bit of a blur. I guess a part of the evening has gone due to the fact that I’ve been setting up a new computer – well, new to me. This one, despite being four years old, is a  quieter and a lot faster than the other cobbled together unit I had. Sometimes, it’s the little things. Plus, that’s a few hundred quit that I don’t need to spend. I’m not a fan of buying gadgets when I can repair / hack something together to meet my […]

Madness takes its toll.
But listen closely…
Not for very much longer.
I’ve got to keep control.

Hi, When the river runs wild, there are a few choices: Stand tall and brave the rage of the waves. Brace against the worst and hope your feet are not pulled from under you. You can let go, follow the flow and try keep your head up. Or you can let it wash over you and pray for the end…. although I wouldn’t recommend the latter. I don’t know why I’m writing the above, but I thought it sounded nice. Maybe there’s something rattling around my subconscious at the mo. Whatever it is, it’s not coming to the fore. Anyhoo, the above was kicked off when I looked at my desktop’s wallpaper. Funny how inspiration strikes you. I mean earlier […]

“When the good comes to bad the bad comes to good,
But I’m a live my life like I should…”

Hi, I was tempted to say ‘yo’, but I just can’t bring myself for fear that the irony would be missed 🙂 Wednesday and Thursday were very much a chore for some reason. I think it may be because I’d reached the end of catching up on a favourite television series (On-line viewing rules – doubly so with ad-blockers 😀 ) and that work was really dragging. So, I plodded home – as much as one can when driving – through the traffic and after dealing with the nippers, headed off to Chams. I was not in the best of moods when I arrived because I felt short on time. On the upside, when I got back, the Ever Lovely […]

“I’ve got no enthusiasm,
for burgers or computers”

Hello one and all, I shall be glad when this week is little but a memory. Not that it has been awful or scary, just one very long slog. It all started last week when my work computer – that’s at home – went pop. Yes, it’s an odd arrangement, in that the old kit that’s not recycled / broken up, ends up being used by employees for working remotely. Of course, the trouble with old equipment – regardless of brand – is that it can be a bit temperamental…. with emphasis on the temper and mental. I’ll try and keep the tale of IT Woe short. Let’s just say that I spent most evenings this week trying to get various bits […]
