Gadgets: who doesn’t love them? A good gadget (or even a bad one, let’s face it, work can be dull sometimes…) can turn your day around in a matter of seconds. One minute you’re fed up with your boss and his slave-driving ways…the next you’re marvelling at the gadget on your computer which enables you to hit just one button and a little BOSS HERE, CAN’T TALK! Appears in your messenger window to let your friend know that now is Read the rest of this entry »

I grew up with an intense fear of ghosts, or, more specifically, polterguist. This was my childhood:
When I was five I asked my mother what gravity was. I had heard the name bandied about a few times and I wanted to know what relevance it had to every-day life, if any. My mother looked at me, then looked left and right as if we were being watched (which we were, because we were on a beach and mum was Read the rest of this entry »
When did being late for things become cool? I wouldn’t mind if this was an occasional thing that happened every so often, but recently I’ve been noticing a worrying pattern that seems to be spreading like wild-fire (to get a thorough understanding of the intensity of a rapidly spreading wild-fire, all you need do is consult Google). In fact, it would seem that within my company, I am the only individual who arrives bang on time.

How cool would it be to have the original poster on your wall from some classic movie like ‘The Great Escape’? That movie is just as enjoyable today as it was on its release.
If I was given the choice of an original movie poster that I could have then I would have to think very carefully about which one I would pick.
I am quite a fan of films and I can think of a large selection that I Read the rest of this entry »
As a writer, like people who perform breast enhancement surgery blind-folded, I am apparently a thing of interest to some people who don’t write and wish to unlock all the secrets to what it is we do. That’s right, I said a thing, not a human. It’s my opinion that some people don’t think of writers as living breathing people. And that’s fair enough. We are a bit weird and so it makes perfect sense.
Now, as a society us Read the rest of this entry »
Have you ever noticed what terrible injuries we can cause to ourselves by ourselves? Or maybe it’s just me…
Over the years I have spent many long hours building things with wood and I’ve had a number of stupid accidents. Amongst other things, I have managed to hit myself on the forehead with a claw hammer, whack my own shin with a sledge hammer and run a bow saw across my knuckles on numerous occasions. So frequent were these mishaps, Read the rest of this entry »
Most of us know the fundamental idea behind energy: that it transfers from thing to thing and place to place invisibly, always turning in to something new and never disappearing out of sight for long. But what most people don’t know (me included) is that motors waste tons of the stuff. And according to the guys and girls at Enigin there are a lot of motors in the world doing just that. Enough that loosing this much energy is actually Read the rest of this entry »
Me and my brother used to play a game called Who Loves Me Most with our dog. Him dying ruined all that, but we held (and hold) no grudges, because little Freddy was a fine hound.
The game was extremely cruel, easily as cruel as cyst removal is to someone with a great many cysts, and probably caused untold—mainly because Freddy couldn’t tell us—suffering to our poor little dog. And it went like this.
My younger brother would take his Read the rest of this entry »
