Introduction It is I! Wearer of Hummels, speaker of truths unto me, person with perception about which you are reading. Or in poorly translated spanish, La percepcion sobre que, tu estan leyendo. It is true, that if I were a professional footballer (an issue we've covered in the past), the chant directed at me from … Continue reading Mr Hummels. Back, in Hummels.

Epiphanies and Mushroom Picking
Epiphany #1 This moment of sheer genius came as I put on my ear protectors for another afternoon of sanding - an apprentice carpenters bread and butter. The crevice between my ear and ear protector would indeed fit my old headphones. This is possibly elementary for a fully fledged ear protector wearer, however I am … Continue reading Epiphanies and Mushroom Picking
Editorial |Dreams, Broken Ruddy Dreams
As you may have noticed I am fond of the editorial format. The alternative is too bleak to take in really, it would mean that I am not; a) powerful b) important. As I sit in my executive suite thinking of how I will turn this magazine into the success it once was, I have to … Continue reading Editorial |Dreams, Broken Ruddy Dreams
My Adventures… On the Carretera Austral (From the Notebook)
( Ed -This was to be the first of our 'From the Notebook' collection, however given it would have been opinions based on experience. It would be wrong to discard either the opinion or the experience.) Firstly, I should introduce the star of the show, the Carretera Austral, Chilean Patagonia. The Carretera Austral is a … Continue reading My Adventures… On the Carretera Austral (From the Notebook)
Missed Bus #1
I woke up and the sheet had come undone. I peeled my shoulder from the yellowed mattress and looked across at my phone to see the time. A red light blinked intermittently and I couldn't tell, from the light coming in from the window it was early morning. When I arrived I hadn't been able … Continue reading Missed Bus #1

Recently I have found myself outdoors more regularly than the norm, furthermore I have been in unfamiliar lands where the native tongue is not my own. I know what you are thinking, I should be hunted, parted from my dearly beloved … Continue reading A letter to… Horror Movies
My Adventures in… Cabo Polonio
Where to begin... It seems like so long ago now, but in actual fact it was just a fortnight ago that I was in Cabo Polonio, spiritual home to the Uruguayan hippies. Leaders of the free world. Perhaps it seems so long ago because there is no electricity or internet there and so everything took … Continue reading My Adventures in… Cabo Polonio
Notice to readers
It has unfortunately been the decision of the powers that be (Me), to continue to write this. Not only is it fruitless for you but it is often a ruddy hassle for me. I am currently adventuring the fuck out of the world, you see. And whilst one is adventuring, one often doesn't have readily … Continue reading Notice to readers
Editorial – Thanks, apologies and exciting advances
I would like to extend my thanks to my wonderful readership. We have already accomplished so much together. I will also extend a quick apology, firstly for my infrequent posts of late - I know many of you wait with baited breath for another slice of my warm personal pie. Secondly, I apologise for the … Continue reading Editorial – Thanks, apologies and exciting advances
The Mate experience
Like any good traveler I am immersing myself, as best I can in the local culture. Since coming South from Brazil, one of the staples in the cultural and culinary diet is the consumption of Mate. (Pronounced Mat-eh. Like your from Leith.) Mate is not just the humble tea we are used to in Britain, … Continue reading The Mate experience
