It must be that time of the year I guess. There is actually a ‘Share a Shower’ campaign with Facebook pages. (whatever that means? The Great Western Railway had an engine named “The Knight of the Bath”. This was always nicknamed “Friday Night” by the engine drivers. So where is all this leading? Two and a half years ago!

It started off with monitor problems. Bugger it" I thought,. I can't be bothered, after all I've got so many. Other things piling up in the background. I expect it is because I use VISTA,.

Do you know - (OK, a silly question - of course you don‘t) - that I have probably spent the best part of the last twenty years trying to lose weight? A Smoking Gradpa toy. Of course, as a child I had visions of this sly monk brewing up a foul mixture in this vast iron pot in a remote monastery way down in the West Country. Later in life, maybe ten years later...

My neighbour banged on my front door at 2:30am on Friday last. Can you believe that, 2:30am! Luckily for him I was still up,. And tuning the organ’s thirteen Melody pipes for the Regatta at Cookham on Saturday. I had to set off at ten o’clock that morning, as I had to be set-up, alongside the river, at 10:30am. His mate turns to him and says,. This yea...

In fact I wasn’t planning to do anything today in this heat. It’s 83 here today! However, this week I have been having a bit of a clear-out, or a de-clutter as it is called today.
