A bitch, a git and a sad old man.

I’ve been agonising about the tone and content of this post for a week or so, and its taken me a lot of thought to decide if I should post this. I’ve decided to write an abridged version, as every other version I’ve written has ended with quite a bit of bad language. Background I went…

GoVia ThamesStink

For the last few weeks, commuters across the UK have been suffering from #RailFail2020 in London. There is no guarantee when trains will arrive/depart or even turn up. Once again I had a crappy journey to work, despite being at the station at the normal time I was late for work. Thankfully I didn’t have…

Nothing to say this week…

I have nothing really to say this week as I’m building up to a big rant about how my education has affected my mental health. I have been exploring this with my therapist and I’ve been working on a post for the last week. I’m otherwise well and will to be popping over to Wale…

I would hesitate to call it a plan, very little seemed to have been communicated to station staff, train drivers and commuters alike. Since the start of the new…

I have caught myself searching for the app, I’ve certainly been tempted, but I’ve managed to keep myself away from it. One thing I noticed during the week was how frequently I…

Bye Bye Facebook

I discussed coming off facebook with a mate over the weekend and decided it’s worth trying. I know that there is a lot of talk about the harmful effects of social media these days, I did not even start to think about how it might be affecting me. So, as of yesterday afternoon I have…

Well things have not been so good…

I’ve not been in a “good place” for a fair while. For me, life is an inescapable, long, lonely, slow trudge towards a meaningless end. Ultimately whatever we do is spectacularly pointless. So, I think I need to take a break from Facebook for an undefined period. I’m still considering if I should post this…

Feb Update

The time is rapidly approaching my Birthday. My 42nd birthday to be precise, something I’m OK with, so that’s good. I’ve been having a focused time at work, as after a long period of nothing happening, I’ve been promoted, and we’ve had 3 new sales in the last 3 months. All of which I’ve been key to…
