As the world veers towards Nuclear or climate annihilation I want to let it be known that Mr Hummels had a rotten sequence of events happen to him. But that won't keep him down. 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
Ten Tips for Tube Travel!
Walking slower than everyone else during rush hour - watch the people envelope you like a school of fish and a shark. Walk against the direction of the train as you alight - look everyone in the eye. Peer deep into their souls. Loiter when alighting, there is every chance you will be left alone … Continue reading Ten Tips for Tube Travel!
Positive Feedback
I keep approaching this and then shirking away. Like a married couple after too long. Long live the soft, withered, dry remains of Mr Hummels. Every time I do write something it ends up being the fragment of a poem which you didn't want to read on social media. Frankly there is too much happening. … Continue reading Positive Feedback

London: A view to a snow
I've just woken up in some kind of dream world. It has taken me decades, my lifetime, to do but I've woken in my ideal situation. Allow me to explain. I'm sat in my bed, perfectly placed away from the towering wall, enjoying a slow breakfast. The bed, as does the whole flat, overlooks Regents … Continue reading London: A view to a snow
Tube Strikes
The London I've experienced since after Christmas has heartened and endeared me to the city unexpectedly, as the dust, and possibly snow, settles over the festive period - London has been unified. Rarely does it happen that a metropolis can be united together with a single thought. Yet truly these Tube strikes clearly irked an … Continue reading Tube Strikes
