swisslet: rule number two...
http://www.swisslet.com/2015/07/rule-number-two.html
52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Tuesday, 28 July 2015. Fairly early on into my training course for my PADI Open Water diving qualification, I was introduced to the two golden rules that all scuba divers must live by:. 1) Never, ever hold your breath. 2) Always look cool. But you have to admire the chutzpah that sees them attempt to style out their bulging lycra in the face of all taste or good judgement. Honestly. People, eh? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Tuesday, 4 August 2015. Win yourself a cheap tray. The view from the castle. The salad I had for my lunch today had a lovely sticker on it proclaiming “Tastes of the British Isles”. This prompted me to wonder if the UK really did taste of beetroot, lentil and goat’s cheese. After some thought, I decided that I thought that it maybe tasted a bit of beetroot. So that's £3, yeah? One of Tony's excellent pictures from the weekend. A fantastic few days in gre...

swisslet: seasons change with the scenery...
http://www.swisslet.com/2015/08/seasons-change-with-scenery.html
52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Wednesday, 12 August 2015. Seasons change with the scenery. I’m sad to be the one to break it to you, but winter is coming. We’re barely into August, and already the mornings have a distinctly autumnal feel as I get onto my bike to cycle to work: there’s a nip and dampness to the air that tells me that we’re only a short hop away from woolly jumpers and the smell of bonfires. Is that really the best you can do? 13 August 2015 at 10:05. Don't go to vegas.

swisslet: play among the stars....
http://www.swisslet.com/2015/07/play-among-stars.html
52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Monday, 27 July 2015. Play among the stars. I spent a good part of my Sunday afternoon reading " One Night in June. By Kevin Shannon and Stephen Wright. It was loaned to me a little while ago by mother-in-law before a trip to Normandy that we unfortunately had to cancel. The book tells the story of the British Glider Regiment and their role in Operation Tonga. Of course, in the wider context of the war, this was just one small piece of a much larger stor...

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Tuesday, 11 August 2015. On the whole, I reckon that I’ve been pretty lucky with my MS symptoms. Although I was officially diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS, apart from the moment I first woke up with a numb hand that morning in 2005, I couldn’t honestly tell you that I had ever experienced a definite relapse. For me, it hasn’t quite worked out like that. On the plus side, one of the possible treatments is apparently cannabis……. Make your own badge h...

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Wednesday, 5 August 2015. My friend Tony is something of a photography buff, and he took many fantastic photos documenting our time in Scarborough (his wife is in the choir, Tony spent his time wandering around the town taking photos of whatever and whoever took his fancy). Because of his wife’s involvement as a singer, Tony has sort of become the choir’s unofficial photographer, snapping pictures of us as we sing at various concerts. Btw its our wedding...

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Monday, 10 August 2015. I’ve watched a lot of cricket at Trent Bridge over the years, but this match was by some distance the most extraordinary, with Thursday’s play in particular being one for the record books. 5 wickets down in the first 25 balls… and the sight of Stuart Broad roaring in to bowl on the first morning of the match with six slips and a short leg. I damn well saw that one. Here are a few of the records from the match ( borrowed from here.

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Monday, 10 September 2007. Generate the music that makes you feel better. Make of it what you will. Plus I am absolutely hopeless at remembering what gigs I've got coming up and when, so a rolling list probably isn't that bad an idea either. Gigs Yet to Come. 08/06/2011 The Pierces / Alice Gold / Delta Maid. Rescue Rooms 8 / 10. 17/05/2011 Noah and the Whale. Rescue Rooms 7 / 10. 21/03/2011 Noah and the Whale. Bowery Ballroom, NY 8/10.

swisslet: yin yang...

52% intelligent. 9% modest. More monkey than bear. Thursday, 13 August 2015. I’ve taken a dislike to the man who has the locker next to mine in the changing rooms at work (this is, by the way, the celebrity section of the locker room: Craig Davids and Richard Curtis are both located here). This might seem unreasonable, given that we haven’t exchanged a single word in the year since he moved in, but to my mind, it’s completely justified. Let me put forward the case for the prosecution:.
