  • updateus maximus

    One of the things my parents used to advise me was to “engage brain before opening mouth.” I did not realise how wise they were at the time (both parents and words), but the older I get the more I understand how things said in haste or as a quick reaction can be hurtful and…

    Isn’t modern communication amazing? I have been trying to get a magic club off the ground in Colchester but have found that communicating the existence of a fledgling club like that is difficult. I don’t have the resources to take out a full-page advert in our local paper or broadcast radio adverts. I have posted…

    What do you do when your computer refuses to talk to the printer? This has happened to me a couple of times recently and it is rather annoying. In fact, on one occasion it was quite disabling as I was unable to print out the pages of a document I needed for a meeting. The most…

  • many are called but few want to be chosen

    I am fascinated by what is happening to the England football team. They seriously underperformed at the recent World Cup and people have said it is because they were too tired. Well lots of the other teams at the World Cup have players who play in the English Premier League and their get up and…
