Chicken Life

As usual Doug Savage once again can summarize my current existence within the confines of a 3M Post-It Note. My wife, Michelle would wholeheartedly agree. I talk of grand plans to take on (and resolve) all the problems of our planet but instead just sit on my (now ever expanding) behind watching an endless amount […]

Twenty Days Left Of My Twenties

This should be a major symbolic post, that goes on for over one thousand words but based on my recent lack of activity (less than an entry per a month in real time) I very much doubt I will be able to perform to that level. (I believe my natural peak in terms of blog […]

Primetime Karaoke

At times I wonder why I get sucked into the bandwagon that is The X Factor. If you strip the television show down (sometimes we need to remind ourselves it is just a television programme), it is purely glorified karaoke on a Saturday evening. Instead of an audience of a few hundred in the pub […]

Middle Lane Hog

When I moved into my flat in mid April and found myself in perhaps one of the most undesirable industrial towns in not only Berkshire but perhaps the whole of the South East, I made a conscious decision. No internet access (and therefore land-line) required. I thought foolishly that I would cope with using my […]

Picking Favourites

Most people are aware of their better half’s favourite everything (okay maybe not everything but almost everything) long before they get married. Michelle and I, are in this regard, playing catch up. Over the past few weeks, I have been constantly badgering my wife on her favourite song, movie star, television programme, advert or anything […]

Mr & Mrs

Today in a fabulous Civil and Hindu ceremony I got married to my beautiful wife Michelle. I thought it would be a good idea to finally update my blog for what can only be described as the happiest day of my life. It is strange how when planning a wedding, the actual date of the […]

Last Night Of Singledom

It is plainly obvious that I am not ready for this weekend and instead of spending Friday night sorting things out for my up coming nuptials, I am actually off to another wedding. I have no idea what my so called friends have got planned for this weekend. Although I did my best to arrange […]

A Leap Of Faith

Who knew that 2011 would turn out to be such a milestone in my life. Aside from that fact that I turn 30 in a mere four months time, I am also getting married within the next fortnight. I had always hoped to be wed before I entered my third decade but even this is […]

The Final Countdown

Believe it or not, there is now just a month to go until my wedding. In thirty days time I shall be wed and enjoying a reception with all my friends and family, many of whom will have made the trip from Australia, India, the USA and beyond to be with us on our special […]

Unexpected Departures

Sometimes events consume you to the point that you just have to let them complete their course. There is little that can be done to stop the juggernaut, you just have to grin and bear it. A case in point, is my job. On Tuesday 7th June, I was told by my colleague, Richard that […]
