if they made answering machines for blogs…
Beep. “Hello “This is the blog for Nick Lear known as ‘nukelearfishing’. Thank you for visiting my blog. I am unable to come to the blog at this time, but please read some previous entries and if you feel like it leave a comment after the long beep and I will get back to you as…

how do you do it?
As regular readers of this blog will know I love magic tricks. I love watching them, learning them, performing them, and seeing the audience reaction (if it’s good!). It seems to me that the question I get asked more than any other is: “How did you do that?” My response might be a cheeky ‘very well’,…

blogs should be full of meaning and not hurt
In Victorian Britain, so we are told, children were to be ‘seen and not heard’. They were to maintain a discrete distance from their parents and only make their presence felt when it was requested. Until now I have always taken that at face value. But I have just realised that it is a very…

bloggerel explained (sort of)
I am writing this bloggerel and creating this bloggage in a brief lull in what will undoubtedly be a busy day. Even as I have written that first sentence I realise that you may well not know what I mean by “bloggerel” and “bloggage” (although I am delighted to say that my voice recognition software…

clouded thinking
I am attempting to update the blog a bit and make it easier for you to find your way around. I have realised that because of my laziness (entirely!) I have had over 160 blog entries that had not been categorized. I am attempting to rectify the situation so that the category cloud is more…

Apology continued
Yesterday Blogger were doing some ‘essential maintenance’ whatever that is, which meant that I was unable to post anything to this Blog. I hope those of you who made the journey through cyberspace yesterday were not too disappointed (or too delighted) to find that there was nothing new here. Perhaps you took the opportunity to…

1, 2, 3, 4, 5… er… 10,000
Sometime over the weekend it happened. One of you probably did it but have not confessed. Was it you? Astonishingly someone made my hit counter on the blog tick over to 10,000 hits! My flabber has never been so ghasted! It seems incredible to me that people have thought it might be worth paying 10,000…

principles?
I have a decision to make. I have been approached by a Christian publisher to write a series of daily devotions based on my blog. That is amazing. (I can’t say which publisher but I don’t think they will be asked to join the TUC.) Apparently someone who works there is a regular blogmate and showed…

prioritising priorities
I can remember a lecture at the Vicar Factory where I trained (the awesome Spurgeon’s College if you are interested). That statement may surprise you for two reasons: one is that I can remember a lecture, the second is that I actually am trained. Anyhoo… the lecture was in my final year when we were…
