Sitting down into my friend’s Mazda 6, I smiled with glee at the creature comforts, leather seats, satellite navigation and Bose in car audio system. I noticed a CD case, in the door storage panel, to my left and picked it up. The front of the case came off in my hand, coming to my […]

It all came together as I was driven around into the car park of my new office. My new working day home. To say this was a different environment was an understatement. I had gone, from (in my humble opinion) the greatest city in the world to this countryside retreat. Well, that is not so […]

I have been using credit cards for the past five years and am bemused by the new scheme of Chip and Pin. Sure, the signature as a measure of authority has been ineffective for decades but entering a pin appears to have several flaws of its own. As an organised individual, I am usually on […]

Almost exactly six months ago, I had my second interview with the City Law firm, whom I started working for eleven days later. In a twist of fate, (or should that be luck?) I find myself in a very similar predicament once again. Following a successful second interview yesterday afternoon, I waited patiently for the […]

In between my two interviews today, I was at home to grab some lunch. While scrolling around the music channels on Sky I came across VH1. It had very much gone over my head, it was the final day of the sacred Immortals Week. I had flicked through the channel throughout the course of the […]

The fog was thick, on this late Sunday night, as I headed out onto the M40. The road ahead was a certain as my own future. I suppose ultimately I was lacking inspiration. Lacking the enthusiasm for life, which I had shown and felt so warmly five months ago. Times had changed. Events throughout my […]

As I have already noted here, on previous occasions, blogging has now become an important part of my life. Something that I shall never stop doing. I cannot predict a situation when I would ever need to. Regardless of what others may say, this blog will continue to grown and blossom. For some people, catching […]

When an period in your life comes to an end, there is an empty feeling. Being a creature of habit, a strict routine is very important to me. I long for structure in my life. Without trying to make myself sound like unexciting, I am trying to get across my emotions. It is difficult, because […]
Wednesday 3rd November 2004
Following on from some of my comments in my previous post, last month I was rather bemused to discover the following article as a headline (is that the right phrase to use?) on BBC News website. Obviously that is taking an extreme example but I do not want to see myself in that dire predicament […]
Sunday 31st October 2004
In the summer of 2003, when I was considering the re launch of this site, the return was turning out to be more of a retirement rather than anything else. My own lazy attitude was the main culprit on this occasion (and it appears that history repeating itself). In July, I created a blogspot account, […]
