New Challenges

As is natural, I find myself constantly hit with new challenges, hence the on-the-nose title. The most recent (current) one is trying to find a place to sit and work while my car gets serviced. Coffee shop full. Next one closed. So, I’m sat at the garage typing away with a mask on. Awesome. In … Continue reading New Challenges →

Lockdown Day 2319

Life is beginning to return. The bars are open. The greenery at the roadside is once again turning a healthy black colour from the return of passing cars. People are cautiously walking the streets, even if they do look like ninjas. No longer do we have to fight like animals for pasta or rice. I … Continue reading Lockdown Day 2319 →

Lockdown Day 20

I am destroyed. The 5k took 27 minutes, which I’m told is pretty decent, but I forgot about a massive hill about halfway round the route I picked. As a result my legs are rubbery and there’s a dull ache in my hip causing a fuckload of discomfort. Respect to people who run regularly and … Continue reading Lockdown Day 20 →

Lockdown Day 19

When I finished writing the last post I had a quick look at the site stats. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not one to be concerned about views or likes, at all. I don’t care. This is for fun. But at the same time, I can’t hide the nice happy glow it gives me to … Continue reading Lockdown Day 19 →

Lockdown Day 18

Is there anything better than sharing something you enjoy or are proud of, and having the person you share it with enjoy it? Well, probably. The birth of a child, winning money, getting a birthday gift. Maybe a lot of things. But it’s still a pretty damn good feeling. I’m a big fan of all … Continue reading Lockdown Day 18 →

Lockdown Day 17

I totally missed a day. My bad. Luckily, I’m not beholden to deadlines or a boss for this. It’s also pretty lucky as I’ve got nothing to say. Again. The days are blending a little into one big mush of sitting outside, sitting inside, half-arsed exercise, cooking, drinking, eating, walking, playing with baby, working (hah) … Continue reading Lockdown Day 17 →

Lockdown Day 15

There are a great many forms of media out there with which to distract oneself from this grim reality. Some require a bit of thought and activity, some you can just smash on in the background and mellow out to. At the minute I’m leaning towards the latter, specifically this guy: I’ll post a video … Continue reading Lockdown Day 15 →

Lockdown Day 14

This morning I figured out that if I put the baby down at one end of the front room, I have precisely enough time to make a coffee and pour myself a glass of orange before she makes it to the other side of the room. Where I promptly intercept and reposition. Like a responsible … Continue reading Lockdown Day 14 →

Lockdown Day 13

Lucky number 13. I should explain that I started counting the days since I was officially stood down from work. With the staggered approach, the slow phase-in that the UK took to locking down, I’m sure everyone started counting from the start of their own situation. And for those who still have to battle on … Continue reading Lockdown Day 13 →

Lockdown Day 12

The temptation to spend money on things that can’t really be used is tremendous. I’m positive it’s something akin to boredom, some need to have a rush in the absence of let's face it, most of the fun outlets out there. Amie has resorted to buying scratchcardsonline. I’m mostly browsing things I can’t afford. Sometimes … Continue reading Lockdown Day 12 →
