Mathematics Blackboard

I hate mathematics and love mathematics in equal measure. Arguably, in infinite measure. I went to work this morning. I walked from my home to the bus stop. I waited for a few minutes, got on the bus, journeyed to approximately the correct location, and…

Your day was horrible. It started with a run around town doing your checks, and finished with a Manager Meeting when the same old shit was discussed. But the middle bit, the bit where you drove as far as Fareham only to get a call…

Postcards & Quill

Finding the time to write is a weird phenomonen. I do sincerely believe this magical thing we call time is located somehwere between Timbuktu and the Bermuda Triangle. Yes, yes, I am aware that both Timbuktu and the Bermuda Triangle are real places. It’s all…

Birthday Candles
