A Wad of Nothing

Posted on Sunday 2nd December 2007 at 00:55.

Yesterday was World AIDS Day. It probably escaped most people’s attention, and it annoys me.
I spent a large portion of that evening discussing the lack of promotion of this fact with a friend. We discussed to what lengths promotion techniques would have to go in order for people to take notice. Having someone contract HIV [...]

Dull Times

I stayed up quite late last night. I didn’t really have any reason to, I just didn’t feel tired. The usual cause of this phenomenon is hyperactive brain. Indeed, that was the cause of my brief encounter with insomnia. One thought that particularly caught my mind was how crap this decade is turning out.
What has [...]

Around The World

It’s amazing what bargains you can pick up by shopping around.
I wanted to get some Red Hot Chili Peppers albums. I’ve had their Greatest Hits album for a few years now, and I had always enjoyed their music. With any band I take a liking to, it is usually because I have bought their greatest [...]

Japan Day Five: Nikko and The 151 (19.04.13)

We went to bed quite early having walked so much. But Weiran woke me up at 4 am, wanting to go to the Tsukiji fish market. We went, though we didn’t see any auctions. We wandered around for a while before venturing into a sushi restaurant. I had never eaten sushi before, so I anticipated [...]

For Lent, I have given up using my laptop. As such, you will probably see less regular posts from me. I am also giving up something secret, which I started doing last year. Last year I gave up listening to Queen. That was quite hard, especially when it comes onto the radio…
Not that I have [...]

Now I’m Here

Yesterday was Brian May’s birthday. He is now 59 years old. Amazing.
Anyway, about my day. I spent most of my day on the computer, looking for references to musical instruments in Queen’s entire back catalogue. I got about ten different terms I think.
Apart from that, it was a very boring day. Not even the world [...]

Return Of The Queen

Posted on Friday 14th July 2006 at 23:51.

I finished doing my room today… sort of. So I was moving everything to where should now belong. I then glanced at the tin of Quality Street. Did I really put it in there? Yes I did.
18 Queen CDs in a Newcastle United CD case had been in that tin for weeks. I think I [...]
