Money money money…

In trying to decide what to do with your life, one thing generally rears it’s ugly head; money. “How are you going to live?”, “What will you do for cash?”, “How will you pay for it all?”, these are the types of questions you hear from people whenever you talk about doing something new, about [...]

He’s a winnah!

I won on the Premium Bonds! Had some since I was a kid, only about £100 or so, and this is the second time they’ve come up for me. Yay Ernie! It’s only £25 but still, who can say no to free money. I’m gonna put it towards some new boots.

Change the world $25 at a time

I’ve been a member of an online micro loan community called Kiva for a while now. The idea is very simple: Entrepreneurs worldwide, who may not have access to ‘normal’ modes of funding, ask for a loan on Kiva.org. Those who want to help out can lend them all or just part of the loan [...]

Week 37 : out and about

Been a busy week this week. I’ve surprised myself with how busy I’ve been. We had a very successful International Kiki Day, where much fun was had by all and a number of goodies were procured for future enjoyment. I popped sarf o’ the river to see my friend Katie who I did Go Ape [...]

Well, no surprise what my new thing for this week was. The glorious porno ‘tache I’ve started growing. It began on Sunday the 1st, with… well, nothing really. I just stopped shaving. After four days, it was time to go to the razor. I got in the mood for the occasion with a little some [...]

Week 30: In which our hero makes a new friend

No new recipe this week I’m afraid. There’s one in the works for coconut and oatmeal cookies, but the first batch went splat (too much marg) and the second lot were big lumps (too much flour) so I’ve a wee bit more testing to do before I unleash it upon you, but it’s only a [...]

Week 27: In which our hero really loses track of time

I had this really cool start to this entry all worked out. It went like this: 52 x 7 = 364. Half of 52 is 26. Week 26 = Half of 2010. Then I was going to do a summation of where I was at the half way point of 2010. Only thing is, half [...]

Week 17: Fun, finance and freebies

An odd week this week, reflective of my lightly confused state of mind at the moment. I really don’t know where to start, so before I do, here’s a picture of Buddha for you to enjoy. Now, let’s start with the fun. I went to see Avenue Q on Tuesday night. Got a couple of [...]

Week 16: Chryslers, cash and crapulence

What on earth is that title about? Well… 1. I’m going to buy a car. After getting lifts home with a lad from work these recent weeks I’ve come to the undeniable conclusion that getting public transport with a bunch of mouth breathing mumblies really sucks ass, so I need a vehicle to get me [...]
