Let the Magic Box eat Lobsters

Buzz off I'm busy.
I'm drinking my soup.
I'm in the middle of something.
Go away!

. . . I'm eating soup and from wanting to understand 'everything', to wanting to explain 'everything' I see the impossibility of either and want to sloug… Continue

This state of affairs

I've been pondering a blog post for ten days or so. I haven't posted for ages and 'the pressure' is getting to me. Blog Blank. No Blog. Blog guilt! Can this be true? Can I really be stressing out on this? Yes. 'This state of affairs' I think, 'is not good.' Reviewing my jottings over the last weeks they reveal lists of 'to do'-s, and moans.

Will I Still Love You When I'm Fifty Six?

(Steve Waugh, Philip King; who they? Part 2.) We are very keen on re-fighting the past, and as a parlour game or in front of the screen this is most diverting. If you were there, 'Cool as' and let's hear your tale. What we can't do is re-write the past. If we weren't there, we weren't and that's that.
