The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 37,000 times in 2014. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 14 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
Season of good will and peace on Earth, but I have this strange craving to revisit an old classic and immerse myself in a game of Dungeon Keeper. Is it even downloadable for windows 8? Maybe someone who reads this will know. Other than that it appears im home alone tomorrow so Ramona and I are on bunny duty for the landlady Susie. Gonna try and sort the compost heaps out too tomorrow. The stuff in the bin is ready and just needs sieving off. The current mix is doing ok too although the winter temps hindering it a bit.
Good to see Jonathan Greens’ Fighting Fantasy book Bloodbones has been given the App treatment by the great Tin Man Games. Play this epic adventure!
Didn’t think I had much to do this weekend then remembered I have to wrap loads of presents up for xmas. Have to go through the checklist as well and make sure I have everything. Also have my laundry in and nibbling on a little breakfast.

The Christmas Alphabet only has 25 letters in it. The angels sing “no L”
Well this year has been full on new experiences. This past two night I have tried two sea foods I have never had before. Last night I lived it up a bit with some caviar. It wasn’t as bad as some people make out. I can only liken the taste to black olives or teardrops. Moderately salty but not unpleasant if you have it to live the flavour of something else. In this case cream cheese. And It didn’t smell fishy at all. In fact I don’t even remember an odour.
Tonight I gave oysters a try. These were tinned and smoked so the texture was rather like really soft liver. The smell on this occasion was strongly fishy aided by the smoky flavouring but maybe not as strong as a tin of pilchards.
Hectic day at work. A pipe that runs from the canteen and through the Ladies had blocked. Appears the canteen staff have been pouring fat down the sink again. Danny got absolutely showered in all the filth build up to the point he had to go out and get more clothes, whilst Craig, Moo and myself mopped up.
Susie’s had a nasty cough the past few days. It appears to be clearing but I feel a tingle in my throat. Hope she hasn’t passed it to me before #Christmas …
So many small minded people out there. You bare your innermost to someone you feel would understand only to have them think you’re lying! Ah well, their loss. My ceaseless endeavour continues. I must say though it’s good to exercise ones standards and not be driven by feeling but common sense. If I have learned anything it’s that a gut feeling should be trusted… and trust it I do!
This is quite amusing to watch. So true as well lol
It was good getting back on the saddle after such a long while (for me). Didn’t go on a massive ride but about 8 miles or so to work the tyres back in. Also discovered a couple more caches. I didn’t log one of them though it was covered in snail shite. Must have been vengeance for last nights joke. There’s rain forecast most the weekend so doubt ill get much more chance to do anything else. Roll on the next reasonable day off so I can get out again!
Well set off a bit later than I though I would on my second geocaching quest. Managed to get halfway along the Lincoln to Bardney route down by the River Witham. Managed to locate 11 altogether , I think a few had been lots to yobs but the all interesting troves were still there. Swapped a keyring for a squidgy lizard. The temptation now is, to pump up the bike tyres and do a ride out to Bardney, locating the caches along the other half of the way. Lets see. Anyone else taking this route…watch out for dinosaurs along the way.
Been ages since I posted here. A busy time for sure. Got three xmas presents so far, but just recounted my money and I’m skint till the end of the month. Didn’t remember I had a direct debit going out. That’s put a dampener on all things I was originally looking forward to. A well, at least I have my xbox . Sonja Kinski would be nice as well but we cant have everything. you all know the game I am thinking of. Lets goooo!
Out of all the random numbers out there (and this doesn’t include single numbers as that would be stupid), the number 44 seems to haunt my every day. Why does number 44 keep popping up and catching my eye so regularly. It has followed me around since at least the second year of high school to my memory, and hasn’t stopped, although in recent times it has become more and more regular. Why does it stick out so much. Does anybody else have a number that’s always catching their eye? Number 44 will pop up several times a day now. Its just so random, and so mysterious. From bus services to xbox scores, house numbers to my country’s dial code, 44 is my stalking number. And to a lesser extent 409 and 1010.
If I die when I am 44 as well…I think the coincidence would kill me 😉
