Let’s talk about Things …
One of the things I tidied up was my room of shame … well … a bit. Blimey, it’s already that time of the week again when I’m supposed to be writing a blog post. It’s been a bit of a clearing up week...

If I die before I wake …
Doubtless you’re delighted to see that I’m not starting off with a melodramatic title or anything, because clearly, I would never be a drama queen about having a totally standard operation or anything....

Operation ouch …
Ha! No blog so far this week. Bet you were congratulating yourself on escaping the massive ‘my operation’ post weren’t you? Unlucky. I’m an eighth French and what that means, my lovely people, is that...

Careful with that ACX Eugene … #audiblegate
I was watching a programme about Pink Floyd last night and I’m afraid I couldn’t help myself. Right. This week a suspension of the usual service to bring you a message about audiobooks. If you’re a...

Ouch. Post surgery blues … they come to us all
Today, I’m going to talk about pain management. Because pain management is quite a big part of my life right now. It does feel as if my full-time job is doing physio, three times a day. Having pathetic...

We’re not at home to Mr Cock-up … Ah. It seems I’ve just told a lie.
As I dot and carried down the hall and stopped to pick up this year’s obligatory longways Christmas card which inevitably slides off any surface upon which it is put if so much as a gnat flies past it...

There is no end to my unending twattery.
Christmas has come and gone. Christmas is usually about other people but this year, thanks to COVID, we got one for us. Not that we had a choice but it was wonderful, just this one time, to ditch the...

What? More twattery? #youcantfixstupid
So a lot of time has passed and there’s not been much blogging. To be honest, I’ve been feeling a bit meh and I have learned not to do things when I lack the energy. It’s cold and I’ve just binned the...

Dunce hats on casa McGuire … yes, once again #youstillcantfixstupid
There are only so many interesting headlines I can give to all these blog posts about my, apparently limitless, ability to fuck things up. Meanwhile I appear not to have come anywhere close to...

Well! There’s a thing …
OK, on the downside – let’s get it out of the way before we begin – I have not written anything new, although I’ve been working on some edits for the sweeping, complicated epic K’Barthan sff book which...

That was … a hell of a week.
Last week, I’d made a list of stuff to blog about. I had a particularly productive few days because my brother was down at Mum’s so I didn’t need to ring her every day. I love chatting to Mum so it’s...

So much cobblers …
Weeks and weeks of this … ugh. This week has been quite odd. I’ve been feeling a little out of sorts emotionally. I think that’s partly down to the weather. We’ve had a peppering of cold sunny days,...

Thinness, lacklustreness and bling …
Thinness. Well, here I am. I told you I was a nutter. Something clicked on Tuesday. I hit the afternoon Mum’s semi domesticated pheasant. He’s a big boy. and didn’t feel so bad. By Wednesday morning,...

And finally …
Finally – in the ‘at last’ sense – all round this week. First up, and briefly, I went to get my jab yesterday morning – or my jag if you’re Scottish – so I started quickly typing this before my arm...

Had I but world enough, and time …
Blimey, it’s already time for another blog post. The days and weeks seem to be flying past at the moment but at the same time, nothing much seems to be happening. Life, time, existence seems to be...

Small wins …
Spring. In case, like me, you’d forgotten what it was fucking like. So here we are at Easter. Recently, here in GB, we passed the anniversary of lockdown one. Things are still strange, although I’ve...

Tuesday treat: A literary giant visits …
This is a bit of a turn up isn’t it? A blog post on a Tuesday. Except today, someone else is writing the blog post so I don’t have to! Woot. As I do from time-to-time,may I welcome Jim Webster’s alter...

Ouch …
Well it’s that time of the week to write a blog and as I sit here, tapping at my keyboard, I see from my BBC Newsfeed that the Duke of Edinburgh has died. It kind of reflects my mood. I sat down,...

Arnold’s snot!
Well, things are a little more up-beat this week. Thank the lord for that, I hear you mutter. Seriously though, I do know what’s going on and why I’m out of sorts. Worry ye not, I won’t be explaining...
