It’s been a while since my last post and I thought I really ought to post something. Life seems to be all go at the moment which is quite wonderful in many respects. However tonight is the first night to actually sit back and relax which is wonderful too! As you will know I don’t [...]
The last two days have had spectacularly nice weather and it hopefully this will continue for some time to come. I had my first ‘lazy day’ in ages yesterday. I basically didn’t do a whole lot yesterday and it was wonderful. I simply was enjoying just ‘being’. I did watch a little bit of TV [...]
It’s official – the Christmas Holiday Period is now finished. I can’t believe how quickly time has gone and it seems ages ago since new year, even though it’s actually only 5 days. Life with me remains good although I’m still not quite right after sickness bug at Christmas. However it is starting to pass [...]

There is some question if the remarks made were actually racist remarks or whether they are just ill-thought and unpleasant raceless comments. According to the latest statement from the Big Brother website; Shilpa tells BB: “I [...]
Why is it that TV adverts are so long? How annoying is it to have to wait between 5 to 10 minutes for the next TV program to air. It seems to me that commercialism has really got in the way of good TV. These days if you are watching a public TV channel such [...]
Happy New Year World! The start to 2007 has been unexpectedly good. Having had pretty miserable weather for most of December, January so far has proved to be better in this respect. Although the days aren’t as light as I would like we are still getting some really bright mornings. I have quite a number [...]
On Thursday I watched the modern release of Doctor Zhivago (2002 – Granada; Kiera Knightley and Hans Matheson). It is probably the saddest film I have ever watched in my life and yet it is one that has had the biggest impact on me. It is a really well made film and the score is [...]
