I’ve fished out my army surplus stuff from the attic; genuine Marines belt, 4 medals, awarded to someone else, a tin helmet and a (broken) gas-mask in a nice little khaki bag. And I’m ready for the call-up. To do my duty for God and the Queen and fly out to Syria. Or Moscow. And – Read More-
It is widely believed that there are three paths to eternal life. Ok, there is no eternal life unless you’re a Bhuddist or a vampire, we know that, but figuratively speaking. Paths that will lead to longer, healthier, fitter lives. I’ll give you a clue; McDonalds isn’t one of them. Even football didn’t make the – Read More-
We’re getting slowly ready for our Russia trip. About 5 weeks’ time. Because everything to do with Russia is done slowly, other than murders and military attacks.They happen quickly.

The husband is threatened with a screwdriver by one burglar while the other goes upstairs, where lies disabled wife, to find the ‘swag’. A melee ensues in the kitchen and the 78-year-old home owner stabs the burglar once resulting in – Read More-
Its amazing how fast you can hit the floor. I’d thought that my extensive training in tai chi would have me totally in control of all bodily movements without even thinking about it. We practice ‘falling over’ all the time. How to fall painlessly, how to fall in control and be up again to defend – Read More-
Another day, another mass(ish) shooting in America. At YouTube’s hq in California this time. Fortunately (relatively) only 3 people were injured and it wasn’t at a school. This was on a different kind of ‘campus’. A Google campus. But this shooter was different. This shooter was a woman. A gel. A female. Ya get the – Read More-
Lila was born on April 1st 2017. Later that day Spurs beat Burnley. And subsequently went on a Lila-inspired run that was simply awesome.
