In the Co-Op yesterday, paid for my goods (served by the clerasil brigade as usual that required an extra person to ID me), then spotted this: I’ve never bought the Eastern Daily Press before, but felt compelled to buy a copy of it. How living in East Anglia could I not have known about the […]

This has to be one of the best Xmas decorations I have ever seen. Pretty tasteful, and the Xmas trees in each of the windows look really clean with a great choice of colours: I like Xmas decorations on buildings, this is from Edinburgh a couple of years back:

I woke up with my head clear. I think in part it’s down to having 2 nights sleep in a row that could be described as ‘quality’. Yesterday was also a day of comfort food (steak and cake for want of a better phrase). I feel more positive about a number of things, and a […]

When I was a child we used to pass Arnotts (a shop House of Fraser had bought over) in my parents car pretty much every Friday. There would always be a ‘Sale’ sign in the window and I’d always point it out to my parents. I guess even at an early age I spotted anomalies […]

I realised this morning I have too many open threads and things flying around. I need to get closure on a few things – but it seems to be a challenge / struggle recently given that other people need to be involved. Today was a reasonable proactive start to the day, only to be caught […]

Woke up early this morning, against my desire to get a very long sleep. I specifically had organised events on Saturday around sleeping until late. Got up, messed around for a bit, then went back to bed. My automatic reaction was to go into London, so had it all planned out catching the 7:45 which […]

I woke up this morning with a vision in my mind and a sudden realisation. I’m sometimes super slow when it comes to some things, but super quick in others. I do know one area where I am slow though. My favourite Andrea Bocelli track that I listen to in the mood I’m in right […]

I feel so so tired right now. I hate wasting good food and tonight I did. Still, my ‘sweet stomach’ did kick in and finished a number of macarons. I do need to pull myself out of this tiredness phase. I think I’ll force myself to sleep as much of Saturday as I can. I […]

So, trivial things to gripe about, but I was really irritated this morning by a few things: Logging into websites and buying things. Why is it so bloody complicated ? Why ask me for a PIN when clearly I don’t have one ? There really has to be a better way of doing all this […]

I’m finally feeling better. I guess based on 3 things: Sleep – my ability to get a long decent nights sleep for a change. Food – I made the healthy salad last night, washed down with a couple of glasses of wine. Mind – got a few things that were bothering me discussed (and resolved) […]
