I discovered Renèe Fleming this evening an American Soprano who I’d never heard of before but have just spent an hour in the bath with and Ave Maria amongst others… and was emersed in so many ways. Music you do not have to listen to, was what I was looking for, to relax with and […]
Got told tonight that my mind had been read as I refereed a pool match, and apparently I was thinking that if no-one noticed I was not going to call foul against my own player? Now as referee my decision is final and it took me a couple of seconds to assess whether a foul […]
I heard someone say that on a show we are currently watching called “I shouldn’t be alive” where people recount near-death experiences and it is such easy watching and a great laugh taking the piss out the stupidity of some people before we go to sleep. When you realise that being happy is the most […]
Reading back the last few posts I am very negative and I think it’s because this chest infection is getting me down a bit, and my lack of patience at work this morning was down to the same thing. To be asked to fix something that I do not have the administrative rights to fix […]

The post below was in my drafts from 2016 (for some reason I didn’t finish or publish it?) It just made me smile and think he has grown up so much since then yet only now is he again thinking about his own style and wanting to look like his favourite YouTuber (who’s name escapes […]
Without practice playing pool is hard, we get no table time on a Wednesday so generally the only frame I play is in the match, so I have to accept that against players who are playing many frames per week probably every night I am going to struggle. That said playing on instinct serves me […]
Jamie turned 42 years old today and no-one deserves to feel special more than the woman we call Mommy! She works so hard at everything she does and very rarely has any down time so tonight we went to the Cheshire Grill at Lach Denis on me whatever you want which is always a risk […]
