Suspicious Minds You may be wondering where I am going with this. Well, this relates to possible efforts to get into some of my accounts. Specifically, I had an email alerting me to someone who tried, and failed, to access my mobile phone account. Going back further, I’ve had sporadic emails alerting me to attempts […]
Welcome back to the Meerkat Muse! We begin with some big work-related news, news that I hope will provide relief to a lot of people, albeit for different reasons. I find myself having mixed feelings, because of the circumstances of a colleague’s resignation, but ultimately this will prove for the best for all parties. It […]
It’s April! Has Spring finally sprung? And why do I wear a disgruntled expression? To answer the latter question, let’s rewind to the 20th of March… Supply Chains I fully appreciate that there are some issues way beyond the control of anyone where I work, such as the on-going disruption to our supply chain. This […]
February is behind us, and thus begins March. However, before we discuss the start of March, we must indeed look back, and say farewell to February. # Inclement Incidents To describe the 22nd of February as wet would be a disservice to the word wet. It was horrendous. I got to work in the dry, […]
For many years (decades even), the belief in intelligent alien life has seen two primary interpretations. The mainstream scientific idea is that it is almost certainly out there, but well beyond our ability to detect (much less communicate with) using current technology. There are on-going efforts to locate potentially habitable worlds, and the SETI (Search […]
Welcome back one and all to the greatest show on earth, the Meerkat Muse! Not that we’re bragging or anything… Let us begin by picking up with the events of two weeks ago. The King King Charles has cancer, which is something I would not wish upon my worst enemy. At any age, and no […]
Welcome back to the Meerkat Muse! Let’s start out with something controversial… Brewing a Storm in a Teacup https://x.com/USAinUK/status/1750136728034169147?s=20 The gist of the Twitter link is the outrageous notion that the Colonies have suggested: microwaving tea! Now, I am not against reheating tea in the microwave, but I won’t brew a cuppa via the microwave! […]
Come and Muse with me! What’s been happening ‘kats? Extra Work If there is one thing I truly cannot stand, it’s when extra work is created for me, through the actions – or errors – of others. This happened a couple of weeks ago with price changes at work. After replacing and updating point of […]
Greetings from the Meerkat Muse. Retrospective Thoughts The image of the ocean has been chosen quite deliberately, after a period of introspection. The ocean can be a source of serenity, but underneath, it can be savage, cold and violent. Water gives life, and it can take it away. Watching the waves can be a cathartic […]
We are halfway to Christmas, and approaching the end of 2023! However, before we reminisce, what do we make of December’s opening bow? Before I can answer that, I need to take you back to a couple of Wednesdays ago, and a change… Bins go Bonkers I am all for recycling. I think it’s a […]
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
