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 […]
Welcome to the latest edition of the Meerkat Muse! Facebook Fails We begin with the events of two weeks ago, when the world briefly melted down due to an outage of Meta’s various social media platforms. I wish I could say that I was immune to this, but my initial reaction was I’d been hacked, […]
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 […]
Hello everyone, and welcome back to the Meerkat Muse! November is here, which means shorter days and colder nights. Before we get to that, what of the end of October? A Nocturnal Trilogy I had a sequence of highly unusual dreams the other night, none of which were especially linked to one another. Up first […]
It’s time for the spookiest time of the year! Now, I could turn this post into a lengthy explanation as to Halloween’s origins… or I could focus on what makes the occasion a fun, enjoyable night! Ever since my daughter was little, she has loved Halloween. My wife and I have pictures of her in […]
We are midway through an October that’s already been quite eventful! What has been happening? Changes As you may recall from a previous Muse, the assistant manager where I work recently resigned, to go to new pastures. We are now getting a replacement, who, on the basis of first impressions, seems like a really friendly […]
Are they really asking about shoe size, or are they playing upon a popular bit of innuendo? Well, I’m a size nine. That’s definitely shoe size, by the way. You know what they say, big shoes, big socks.
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...
This meerkat gets nervous about a lot of things. In an upcoming Prompt, I’ll talk about tardiness, and that sort of overlaps with this. Picture the scene. It’s a busy London station, and you’ve just bundled off the Tube, and up to the main concourse. You vaguely know when your train is, but you’re in […]
