As an Englishman there are certain inescapable truths about my life. I drink tea. I loathe winter and yearn for summer but moan that it’s too hot. I also know in my heart that when England end up in a penalty shootout at a World Cup, we’ll lose. Except for the other night when, in […]
Ages ago – two years ago in fact – I started a little chronicle of my Football Manager 2012 career. Thanks to a slow laptop that we ended up with out of necessity, I was unable to continue that particular saga, but now, thanks to a new, much improved piece of hardware, I can present […]
My blog has been quiet lately. There are a few reasons – for one, work has kept me very busy, two, my blocked nose (the result of hayfever that simply won’t shift) has persisted for a while (we have in fact almost reached the one month mark, boo!) and, finally, the pace of the laptop […]
As those of you who follow both Meerkat Musings and The Coalition of the Brave are aware, I have, on several occasions, exchanged words with the author of Theology Archaeology. As a matter of fact, there’s an on-going ‘chat’ regarding morality (among other things) taking place right here. I’ll leave it to you to decide […]
This is The Sun’s typically sensationalist headline this morning: In one sense, as MPs prepare to vote, they’re right – in this meerkat’s humble view, voting through a half-baked, semi-disastrous Bill would constitute a betrayal of the public. It certainly wouldn’t help the country in either the short term or the long term. In another […]
My first Flickfeast article is now live! Please go check it out!
The other night contained a surprise – namely a dino-based, terrifying nightmare. I don’t know what prompted this particular heart-pounder, but it you can bet Jurassic, it was scary. Firstly, I was working with a team of demolish engineers, who had the bright idea of burning old demolition charges to get rid of them (even […]
Nooooooooooo, nothing like that… I am now a member of the Flick Feast family! What does this mean exactly? Well, my film reviews are going to wind up there, but I’ll make sure to let everyone know when a review or critique goes up!
I begin this post with an apology. I caught the highlights of the Spanish Grand Prix but never got around to writing a proper review of it as, to be frank, it wasn’t that interesting a race (Romain Grosjean’s spectacular first lap spin and subsequent three-car crash notwithstanding). It was possibly a key turning point […]
01554 370016 What is that weird meerkat doing now you might ask? Well, for the past week (perhaps longer) I’ve been getting calls from this number. It’s constant, to the point of getting ridiculous, so I’m outing them. Please feel free to share and block!
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 […]
