My random, quirky view on life……. The computer says no’………………… →. How would you spend 26,000? 8230;……………………. March 3, 2016. Have been quite inspired by the channel 5 programme. ‘.

My random, quirky view on life……. Don’t pee in the bath. I’m a celebrityget me out of here! My Marilyn moment…………. November 18, 2016. Today’s title is a reference to the iconic scene in the 1955 Marilyn Monroe film ‘The Seven Year Itch’ and happened to me sometime in the mid-eighties. That’s probably about as specific as I’m prepared to get with regards to this event. I was in one location, my clean underwear in another…. So, I was mightily relieved when someone,. Suggested that we were so close to the f...

It’s been interesting to see how these have become in a very short space of time an integral part of the way we communicate electronically. And the impact this would have on the rest of us.
