  • om, nom, nom, nom popcorn

    Last week I watched some of the World Athletics Championships in London. I didn’t manage to get to the stadium so was restricted to watching on TV. There were some astonishing feats, some memorable races, jumps, throws and performances. But the moment that I remember more vividly than any other was when the TV camera…

  • 100 metres

    Like many millions in this country and probably across the world I watched the Athletics World Championships 100 metres men’s final on Saturday evening. I tuned in hoping to see the fairytale ending to Usain Bolt’s career with him winning the 100m. But the fairytale ending didn’t happen. He didn’t even come second. He came…

  • Profound thoughts and how to fail at remembering them

    So… here I am sitting down trying to think profound thoughts to share with the world via my blog. And the problem is that I find that profound thoughts are really elusive (pun intended). They are a bit like Nanny McPhee. When you want one and you are looking for them you can’t find them.…

  • zooom

    So, dear Bloggists, I have been away for a week with Sally (the wonderful lady to whom I am married) in the Lake District. That is why this page has been silent for the past week – sorry. We had a fantastic time. We walked over hills and down valleys and around lakes. We saw…

  • Holy Hamsters

    This is Sandy. She was the first of our family hamsters. As you can see she was a very holy, prayerful hamster. . It may be that she was actually eating a sunflower seed, but it looks like a praying hamster to me (as opposed to a praying mantis). I use that image to illustrate…
