I may as well warn the reader now that this is a slightly meandering trawl but, hell, if you’ve been reading this blog so far then you won’t expect anything else. Reappraisal time seems to have come around again and it’s probably all part of having been in some kind of fugue state over the [...]

Falling under the spell
Posted in Economy, Meaningless Rambling, Personal, Society on January 13, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
You may have noticed a distinct lack of posts in recent times, well you’d be right and top marks for observation, of course after the masses of disappointed letters I received in the posts from all those fans who simply couldn’t bear the thought of not having my paper thin personality forced upon them in [...]
The great sleep 2002-2007
Posted in Personal on September 20, 2007 |
I thought seeing as the Post Office has been a major part of my life for the last five years, I ought to do a little piece about my time there and what has changed, why and how I feel about it all, it’ll be amazingly boring for most but I’ve never failed to be amazed [...]
16 again.

Well here I am back at school and though I was slightly concerned that time may have moved on and I’d be a relic of irrelevance in a world of youthful energy, my fears have proved unfounded. Today as I sat in class I heard the pleasant droning of the summer outside, there was a [...]

I had an experience which made me truly question Democracy, in the tearoom my colleague Keith came up with the premise of all Arabs being Bastards. I challenged him by asking him why he thought that they were, his reply was ‘because they were’ again I asked him why and he said ‘because they were [...]
A brief Sojourn in a Land of thinkers

This was the view from the beach bar in Kamari, to view it in a similar way to how most people saw it, it is necessary to blur your vision somewhat, I suggest beer and lots of it. As you can see it was somewhat spectacular, and of course by that stage in the morning, [...]
Dabbling with the witch doctor
Posted in Alternative Treatment, Me, Personal on July 14, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Due to my intense dislike of the medication I have been prescribed with which does nothing but knock me out for 12 hours a day, something which severely impedes my studies, my music and what scraps of a social life I still possess. As a result I have decided to give it a rest and [...]
A bad moon in my head, a second sunrise in my mind, how to waste away
Posted in Alcohol, Meaningless Rambling, Personal on July 8, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
As the liquid diet increases so too does my reliance on other people to get me home, heavy amounts of Coedine and inversely so my decreasing ability to stand up straight, form coherent opinions or act in my own self interest. I think I am quite intent on killing myself in my mid thirties through a lack [...]
Making new friends, trying new things, a hopeless attempt to escape the past

Somewhere in some far off parallel universe I am getting married to a girl called Fliss. Somewhere in a similar universe I revel in my past and am a dutiful, fully paid up member of the official ‘prep’ club, having not screwed up in most area’s of my life and not being an out and [...]
