Like buses, or fascist uprisings, wait ages for a post and three come along at once. There is so much to say. And, so little time to say it in. I've not seen through the one job I had to do. Not fix the bed, or the shelf. I did those, despite last nights melodrama. … Continue reading A quickie

Rasberry Ripple
Buckle up for my most rangey piece yet!Trigger warning - casual references to suicide and anal sex are made. Not together.I make it back before the rain starts.

Fully 2 years since my operation I have potentially suffered a re-occurrence of the dreaded meniscus tear. The same that got Fernando Torres. It could just be a slight hamstring pull, we're keeping … Continue reading Curse these metal hands

Mr Hummels is writing this for posterity's sake. The creative act, in this instance, writing, is a futile one. To write … Continue reading And you thought you had it bad…
AGM Transcript: Coronavirus (Covid-19) and San Jose del Pacifico Trip Report
AGM Transcrit Mr Hummels - Introductory remarks As I've pursed over the dwindling fortunes of Mr Hummels, I've come to realise that certain things will either happen, or as the case may be, they won't. Equally, it can be said that certain things will happen when you think that they won't, or won't happen when … Continue reading AGM Transcript: Coronavirus (Covid-19) and San Jose del Pacifico Trip Report
