It took ‘Deep thought’ the supercomputer in The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, 7.5 million years to work out and check that the answer to literally everything is 42. It took Experian about 3 of your Earth minutes last night to get within 1 point of that particular calculation. I’m actually quite gutted that I […]
Nothing much has happened today, and that is a problem. Some people love it when nothing much happens, some people like that kind of thing – I don’t. I’m a ‘do’er’ and rather like a Tiger endlessly pacing up and down it’s minimum recommended 300 square foot, steel and concrete reinforced compound, I am pacing […]

I have been sitting in the same seat in the same café now for about 8 years. That’s how long I have been in this adopted home town of mine. A lot has happened in that time. I have fallen in love for the very first time, had my heartbroken, found a wonderful place to […]
I have just completed and passed an amazing professional career course. 4 years straight of extremely difficult work, study, time, energy, sacrifice and a shed-load of money later and it’s done.
