Lady Luck does cast somewhat of a great shadow over my life. When I need luck the most, it runs out on me and finds another friend (or is that foe?). I can recall moments, in my life, when everything is in place. All I need is just an ounce of good luck. The dream […]

I was again in central London this afternoon. On the interview trail once more. This occasion being more optimistic than in the past. As I headed back towards the tube station, I stopped to take a phone call on my mobile. I was idly watching the passers by, as I spoke on the phone. Then […]

London, has always been a city of great excitement for me. Mainly because I have only visited it as a tourist, with family or for entertainment purposes. In recent weeks, it has become the venue of work. My perception of the city will change in the coming weeks, as I spend more and more time […]

Never forget those true heroes of our time. For many, their act of bravery and courage was their last.

The 40th President of the United States, passed away yesterday. A strong symbol of 1980s America. The news was overshadowed, by the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings. I have been enjoying some of the coverage on the BBC. History is one of my favourite subjects, and the Second World War, is the greatest topic […]

As a general rule, I try to blog, as soon after the event as possible. However, you must understand that this is not always possible. This weekend, has been one of those moments. I tend to have a strange blog. When there is nothing of great interest going on, I blog regularly and almost erratically. […]

My housemate Nav told me that he knew a ‘Strickland’ back at his secondary school. No relation to the case of the bully, recently in the news. To understand the significance of this comment, you need to go back to my entry from Friday 23rd January 2004. I have not had the pleasure or (discomfort) […]

I will be back in Wycombe on Sunday and I must say I am looking forward to going home. Of all the journeys I have made home from University, this will be the sweetest and the most comforting. I have nothing to gain by staying in Leicester. Of course some of my friends remain, but […]
