The past few days have been hard. A friend of mine who I met on island has been going through a bad time and yesterday decided to try and take his own life. I knew something was not right Thursday when I could not get hold of him and by Friday I was looking for…
A Year of Holidays… with more to come…
Storm Amy has just passed and now I am sitting in sunshine looking out towards the golf course, slightly sheltered from the wind with the little hill between me and the sea. I am always amazed how people on the island whinge when there is a storm and trees fall down as it takes the…
Technology
Well, I did it, I decided to ditch the PC and move everything to Mac! I have been with Mac before and started the journey a few years back when I moved the desktop PC to Mac mini, then bought an iPad (mainly so I could play my piano), and invested in Apple TV (as…
Buying Property…
I have tried to buy 4 properties on the Isle of Man and each time either the offer has been rejected, or the property turned into a bidding war. The most recent turned into a “we want more money so put in a sealed bid with your highest offer” – this is a level of…

Alex & Mitch
Why do I end up being the person that tries to help everyone? I went to Gear Blast again this year and ran into Mitch. Now Mitch is a lovely guy, but at that point in his life where he does not know what the hell he is doing. Unfortunately he lost his job as…
Kinkyness – But not in the office!

Hmphhhh
I don’t know what is up with me today…. No really…. Feel super despondent, lethargic, shit, and annoyed…. and I can’t work out why? Actually I think I may be sick – yes I think I am sick. Maybe depressed. Had the option to go and have fun with someone and didn’t want to…. was…
