I have discovered the deliciousness that is not knowing what the time is. I relish in this, and my only real time gauge is when I am hungry and when the sun goes down. As a mark of respect for my origin I have kept my computer on New Zealand time. This serves a couple […]
If I was going to openly complain about anything of our trip so far it would be having to reassess my spatial awareness. Europeans are larger than the people of Thailand and I am constantly reminded of this. In Bangkok I was attacked by annoying light switch in our hotel room. Have you ever been […]
It is a terrible paradox that you can not write about something until you leave it behind. Now we are on the train to our next longitudinal adjustment I can write freely about Bangkok. Our two day whistle stop tour was a full symphony of mixed impressions..I have some advice to impart to both travellers […]
I knew this was going to be odd but not this odd. I have used the internet for a range of uses over the past ten plus years. Now I am unplugged, alive and it is decidedly strange. Perhaps it is wise to reintroduce you the reader to some of my most common catch cries. […]

I gave my father a business card last night. This was a big step for me as I have historically hidden my writing away from my family. The estrogen addled side of my family are somewhat critical. Dad, when you read this post; this one is for you. I am not sure when I developed […]
During our trip to south east Asia we got talking to a squadron of Japanese salary men in a karaoke bar. I’m not one for singing when there is perfectly good drink to be quaffed. Our broken English conversation meandered on to one of my life long loves. Nintendo and gaming . It was during […]
Believe it or not I actually have about three massive posts about 99% done. They just need the final once over by my live in editor. Spurred on by some helpful advice I have been scouring the wild web looking for similar blogs which is not easy sounding or easy to do. I have a […]
Consider this the briefest respite from my increasingly tall tales. I pause now to sing a merry song lauding my fantastic good luck and current abode. Recent weather patterns have not been beneficial to the single greatest perk of staying here. Had I wanted to walk, I need not have. We have the technology! The […]
