I’m not very good when left to my own devices. I can cook, sort of and make drinks, wash up, clean and, dare I say it, the odd bit of dusting. The other day, wifey went out, only for a…
It was my wife, Debbie’s birthday a couple of weeks ago and when I asked her what she would like as a present, she said she would like one of those Alexa things from Amazon. I’m not technologically challenged, but…
I have this old galvanised bin that’s been in the garden since we moved here in 2017. It’s always been empty, I’ve never used it and it sort of gets moved around from here and there. I once considered converting…

Wherever you go in the world or the universe for that matter, people and androids usually are all the same. If you’re nice to them, you can bet they will [...]
Watching the nativity is always a sign that Christmas is almost upon us. So realistic with the bright star above the Manger. It was a quiet affair too, and I [...]
A calm, cloudy day, a lovely day to sit and watch the cloud walkers. There are many of them, of all ages and sizes. Some are surprised to be on [...]
I’m still sitting and waiting, patiently, on my bench for a piano lesson. I would dearly love to play the piano, but I think the coordination is too much. Never [...]
Life is like an unfinished painting and that’s how it should be. We start with a blank canvas from the moment we take our first breath. Every day, colours are [...]
