Tonight has been an unintentionally lazy evening. I can’t keep my eyes open. I get times like this every now and then, but Christmas is the worst possible time to feel exhausted all the time. Drained is not the word. Small naps are not good at my age. Still, plod on through the next two […]
This morning saw the creation of another raised bed in our garden. This one was done in roughly two hours in the end. The Bahrain Grand Prix was possibly the best of the ten we’ve had there. A mix of tyre strategies and closer cars than normal saw to that. My report is here and the standings […]
I refer to this blasted migraine which has dominated my week really. It is still hanging around my head – less obviously than a few days ago, but it’s still there. Today’s main effect was a struggle to read the chosen chapter of The Midnight Fox to my class; Mrs Kennedy, my teaching assistant, had […]

I know it’s rare for me to post three times in a day… but I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to post this. Possibly because of the OK Go mania over their dance videos. This one’s less well known but still amazing. It uses some high frame rate footage of stuff being […]
The third in my semi regular series, everything looks better in slow motion, brings us a compilation effort of various other clips. The music’s not really my taste, I’d recommend watching it without the sound – it’s just as good! Shown are: a cigarette lighter (number 1), a man with water in his mouth being […]
Now, not being an executive type person, I would have no need for this (although if someone were to buy it for me… it’d go down a treat in the HSX camp) but perhaps, if you were a busy executive, or even all grown up but with an urge to play trains, then you could […]
