Let’s get one thing out of the way before we begin, I absolutely hate going to the dentists. The other thing is, whenever I go, it always reminds me of the cartoon Bob & Margaret, because Bob is a wayward dentist in it. If I had my way I’d never go, but I accept it’s…
16 Days of Deano – Day 4 (The Postman Always Rings Twice)
Try as you may, you can never catch up on your sleep as long as you own a doorbell. Join me as I stand firmly on my soapbox for: Day 4 of 16 Days of Deano The never ending joy of a postman that will stop at nothing to deliver on the Royal Mail promise…
16 Days Of Deano – Day 3 (The Smell Of Freshly Mown Grass)
Another one from my archives. We’re building on the rainy days and Mondays theme/song but also adding freshly mown grass. Don’t worry it will all make sense when you hit play. Day 3 of 16 Days of Deano. The lovely smell of freshly mown grass in the morning and Martha’s unrequited love of daffodils…
16 Days Of Deano – Day 2 (When It’s Friday)
Another one from my archives. Day 2 of 16 Days of Deano. When it’s Friday…
16 Days Of Deano – Day 1 (Randomness)
I am doing something a bit different on this blog for the next 16 days/posts. The concept is simple – it’s a video of me from my archives. 1 video a day. Day 1 – Randomness
WhatsApp – The Bubble Typing Tease
I think it was AOL IM or MSN Messenger that used to tell people in a chat that the other person was typing. For me, those two were the sweet spot in history and I wrote about AOL IM in particular here. Seems like a great idea in theory. WhatsApp has it now as well…
Randomness Is As Randomness Does
I have to be in a good mood to do this, but I can be quite random and I get a lot of ideas very quickly. This isn’t going to be one of my long winded posts, I just wanted to share an old video I did. It’s random, possibly a bit surreal… and basically…
The Octopus That Climbed Down Windows
At junior school, I used to sit next to a girl called Suzanne. Believe it or not, at school, they used to put two of us on washing up duty in the teachers staff room. Suzanne was always the one I ended up on duty with and she was a decidedly hard worker. Whatever she…
Taking The Plunge
When I was at college I did PE at ‘AS’ level. Not ‘ASS’ level – that’s a different thing entirely. I think AS level was half an A level… or thereabouts. One lesson consisted of heading down to the local swimming baths. Quite frankly, this was my kind of lesson since I went swimming to…
New Features On This Site
It’s probably about time I did a post all about the features on this site, so people don’t end up confused. First off, here’s the navigation Menu: It won’t look like this on mobile, but all of the items will still be accessible (okay, ‘serious Dean’) Home, Who Is Dean and Contact Dean are self…
Paying My Respects
Yesterday I went to my grandparents ashes plot at the cemetery. Last time I visited was 2019, which feels almost embarrassing for me to write. I don’t know why I haven’t been more often, it’s just one of those things I guess. We also went to visit a mutual friend who died around 3 years…
