Oh CRIKEY ?!?!?!

Oh Crikey!  A terrible thing happened to me on the way to my blog about a month or so ago…  The house of cards known to us all affectionately as HBNW got hit by a huge lump of demotivation and I have been buried under a crumbled building of broken dreams ever since…  Luckily, I managed to crawl out into … Continue reading »

Stonehenge, Shopping and Stargates

It surely can’t be long before Pan Man appears on Britain’s Got Talent 2012 and, as a nation, we must be ready. With this in mind, I really should get to the shops and buy a saucepan, in order to spice up my sex life before the inevitable rush… Naturally, I’ll be going to the ‘mall’ or, … Continue reading »

The Spud-U-Like Mediocre 5000

  I have finally decided to fully embrace the digital age by purchasing a smart phone – the Spud-U-Like Mediocre 5000 to be precise.
