Buried

Posted on June 21, 2010 by Gary

I’m still not feeling 100% and, consequently, I had another granny nap this afternoon. I’m not sure what the matter is but I get all lethargic, my head starts to ache and my nose starts to run. A summer cold, … Continue reading →

Dismay

Posted on June 18, 2010 by Gary

I am not going to talk about the football except to say it’s the most dismal performance by a team of supposed international class footballers I think I’ve ever seen. I am stunned. They wouldn’t have beaten France the way … Continue reading →

Goutless

Posted on June 15, 2010 by Gary

Fever

Posted on June 11, 2010 by Gary

So the World Cup has finally started and we are all being deafened by those silly buzzy trumpet things. I watched a bit of the France/Uruguay match and it was like a swarm of bees. Quite annoying. In fact, Nicktor … Continue reading →

Disbelief

Posted on June 17, 2002 by Gary

I hope I’m never abducted by aliens. Mirinda, Nicole, mum and dad – none of them believe I saw the giant hare! This is regardless of the fact that there’s a letter in the latest Fortean Times from two brothers … Continue reading →

Day of the Poodles

Posted on May 31, 2002 by Gary

Absolutely gorgeous morning. Had to wear my old walking boots as my new ones still very waterlogged (after last night’s wet walk home). Another slack day at work except for the usual last minute rush jobs because of a major … Continue reading →
