My cat’s the best!
I knew my kitty wouldn’t let me down. 🙂😺 I’m actually 39 Part B because last year was cancelled. So I’m not 40 until next year but I’ll keep the card on display until then. Why wouldn’t I? 😍 Enjoying my morning snuggle below 🤗

365 hindsight
1 year ago today I finally turned up to collect my PhD certificate in the usual ceremonial fashion. I deferred for a while (they only hold two a year) and pondered skipping the ceremonial event (and just getting it posted), but was ultimately convinced (I’m trying to avoid saying “nagged”) into attending an event, in…

There’s always room for hope
For the last 4 years America has performed a rectal exam on itself, in full view of the world’s media. Unsurprisingly it has not been pretty, but I hope one day we can look back and see it as necessary. “Business as usual” is the fundamental reason America is coming apart at the seams, it…

A cold strange day in Worcester
Yesterday I had to deal with the annual unpleasantness of my vehicle MOT. Because nothing was open I couldn’t head to a cafe and carry on working as I normally would. Instead, I dressed for the cold and hit the streets for some exercise. Worcester was like the set of 28 Days Later, eerily quiet…

Sunset on 2020
My NYE was probably pretty typical of someone who turns 40 this year: a cheeseboard, better wine than normal, chatting (online) and snuggling with my cat (who’s being more “loving” than normal because of the cold weather 😼). I also went out for a walk, discovering the nice field below…

Snow dogs
I managed to get to Lido Park early this morning. The dogs were having a great time, as was everybody else. I was just happy to get some exercise and justify my snow boots 🙂🥾🥾

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
How do you know if you’re old and miserable? Well in my opinion your knee-jerk response to snow is a good indicator, especially in England where it is a rare treat. If you see “proper” snow and your immediate inner voice is a grumpy whinge then sorry, you’re old and miserable. If however you have…
