I think, possibly too much, about where I came from. About the genes that defined my body and the experiences that shaped my spirit, and about how things might have been different.

The journey back yesterday was a lot quicker than the one up on Friday. It’s been a long time since I did any sustained motorway driving, so it was quite fun, but there are some….entertaining drivers out there.
Relatedly, I have this thing - I don’t know what to call it - it’s not a […]

Mum and I spent part of the day at a place which, weirdly despite being nowhere near the sea, is called Crab Manor. It’s a hotel with an award-winning seafood restaurant, and I would *love* to stay there.

Hel on Earth – I hear on the radio that The Sun is supporting Helen to win Big Brother, which is a bit worrying – they’ve got a lot of readers to get voting…… So the word should be spread – vote Brian.

July 26, 2001 | Comments Off
And so, in its dying days, Big Brother 2 has finally managed to hook me, ensnare me, draw me into its web – pick your metaphor of choice. I just watched the announcement of the unexpected eviction, and it did make for good TV. Though it’s interesting to note that the families of […]

Totally out of the blue, I had an ICQ message this morning from someone I was at school with 20 years ago. I’m still grinning.

Been to see Shrek this evening - *and* I’ve written a review. So that’s it - three new Opinion pages in one week - what are the chances of me now sticking to at least one a week, as per the schedule?
