It’s been a long time since I’ve indulged in an F1 game. Years ago I kept a log of my progress on F1 2009 on the Nintendo Wii. Now it’s time to do battle on the PS5 edition of F1 2021. This game is considerably more advanced than what I’m used to, and it’s been […]
He’s done it again. Paul has created one final quiz for 2021. Let’s see if this turkey is well-cooked… 1. Santa Claus is on a health kick this holiday season. Instead of milk and cookies, what snacks would you leave out for him? A health kick?! ‘Santa’ in my house usually enjoys a mince pie and […]
We are into the month of Christmas, but do we feel festive?! Before we cut into the metaphorical turkey, let’s go back to November, which for me is not a Christmas month. Well, I’ll concede that in terms of preparation it is, but in terms of celebration, it isn’t. Harsh, but true. Maybe it’s because […]
Once again Paul has created a quiz. Once again I will attempt to answer the questions. What could go wrong?! THE 10 QUESTIONS 1. Rank your top five favourite Halloween candy and explain your choices. I have a tendency to like the bite-size chocolate bars. My favourite is the Snickers, which I have always enjoyed. Mars […]
I recently became aware (via Twitter, where else?) of an article in The Telegraph, where one Camilla Tominey criticises grown men who play video games. Apparently adverts for the Nintendo Switch featuring adult gamers are ‘patronizing’. According to Tominey, the only adults who game won’t be found riding the Tube on their way to work. […]
We come to it at last. This is the end, the final test of steel and zeal. Welcome to the grand finale of The Blogger Games! Before diving into the final battle for medals, I wanted to thank Paul for his creativity and his fun ideas. These quizzes are a means of bringing people together […]
This is obviously a work of fiction, and it’s all in the name of fun. Enjoy! It’s December 2010. The FIFA Executive Committee has just announced that Russia and Qatar will host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups. The decisions send shockwaves through the football world as suggestions of bribery and corruption hit FIFA and […]
Welcome to May! The fifth month of the year – and slowly but surely we are creeping out of lockdown and back to a vague semblance of normality – whatever that is. It’s also time for the latest Meerkat Muse! Dates! It’s a rare occasion when my wife and I get to spend the day […]
The first half of the season had produced a mixed bag. We were second in the standings, three points off Arsenal, and we’d had some amazing results – along side a disappointingly large number of defeats. We’d lost five of our 19 games, and won the other 14 – this Liverpool side didn’t know how […]
Last season had ended on the slightly sour note of losing in the Champions League Final. Ok ok, it was more than ‘slightly sour’. It hurt, as it naturally would. Leeds had been on the verge of glory, but the lottery of penalties hadn’t been kind. That was in the past. The 31/32 season was […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
Ever since I was a cub, I have generally speaking been fond of swimming. I don’t do it often, but when I do, I enjoy it. I consider myself a reasonably confident swimmer, and I have few qualms about going out into the sea when at the beach (well, when I’m somewhere warm, with clear […]
