It’s funny how some things just don’t matter like they used to. We all outgrow things along the way. Here’s a few of mine: * Outgrown explaining myself to people who weren’t really listening. * Outgrown holding more grudges than high court judges, because life’s too short. * Outgrown my old pants, so I just…
Saturday Night Snaps
Curry, drinks and chats…
Love Will Tear Us Apart Again + Mix Tapes
I’ve never bought a Joy Division album. Maybe I will one day. But they did give us one of my favourite songs: Love Will Tear Us Apart. In 2002, NME named it the greatest single of all time, so who am I to argue? I can’t quite put my finger on what it is about…

The One Where I Went On The Fastest Zip Line In The World
Ever said yes to something after imbibing alcohol… and wondered if you’d regret it later? Yeah, this is that story… A Few Beers Is All It Takes I was out one night with a couple of friends, having a few beers, and we got to talking about the ‘next adventure’. The last one they did…
Running Uphills Until I Turn Into Kate Bush
Take A Tour With Me As I Literally Go Running Up That Hill… Blair Witch Style (LOL) A couple of week ago I got COVID and as you may have noticed from my posts in this blog, I went down a bit of a rabbit hole. Reflecting on that, I think COVID puts you into…
