I purchased my Christmas Cards today. It is amazing how much time we spending browsing and searching for the perfect card for our friends and loved ones. I wonder, how much time we spending in a lifetime, doing such a trivial activity. It is one of those things that always takes longer than you expect. […]

“Ladies and Gentlemen, we got Him!” Those were the words used by Paul Bremer, to the cheers of Iraqis in the audience at the coalition press conference. These words filtered across the globe in a matter of seconds, with the power of the media. All I can say is that this day will forever live […]

As I lay on my bed, and think of the year flown by and the promise of the year ahead, I shed a tear. I shed a tear for you. For what could have been, for what might have become. If only, like me, you had been the one to truly believe. But this was […]

Arsenal did the business, not just for their fans but for the country too! Getting through to the Second Phase of the Champions League, but also as group winners and therefore will not meet Chelsea or Manchester United in the second phase. That was the most important aspect. When everyone thought the team were down […]

I was hoping to update my blog, last night, however coursework and other commitments got on top of me and I had to focus on them. I can now say with some relief, that my last piece of coursework (for this semester at least!) was handed in this morning. I now can take a break […]

December already, I just do not know where the time has gone. I can remember just like yesterday, being on placement, working the long 7am to 7pm working week and covering over 600 miles in the course of those five days. Although I do, smile, with some relief that I no longer have to adjure […]

The problem with your birthday falling on a Sunday is that there is little to do. As much Sunday has moved from being a religious day to more of a day to do the shopping, it still isn’t the best day for your birthday. They day was spent with my family. So, after my drive […]

Early than expected, I have uploaded two new photo galleries. Check the Photos page for further details. Too busy for any other updates. Take care for now.

Just finished watching JFK: Beyond Conspiracy on BBC2. Overall an interesting programme, which delved quite deep into the various aspects surrounding the assassination of the 35th US President. Ultimately, it attempted to bring some closure, to one of the most discussed topics in the world. There was no conspiracy and Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. […]

You would think that I had come accustomed to getting up early, after my sandwich placement. However, having got back into ‘student mode’ I have become my lazy self again. Before going to sleep, I would set my alarm for 6.30am. This is purely an excercise in wishful thinking. I feel slightly better, thinking I […]
