I was at the one day international cricket match between England and Australia a day before my birthday. The ticket was £45, and to be very honest, I didn’t really see much. Not because we play rubbish or anything I got drunk and when I get drunk I go to sleep. I went with my [...]

“An hour early” was a form of birthday present at my Boarding School. It was not really a present; it was more like a plank! This involved changing his clocks, watches to an hour early while he is fast at sleep. So he would get up an hour early! I don’t know if this still [...]

My Goalkeeping CV 95-98 Truro School – 3rd Team 98/99 UMIST – 3rd Team 99/00 UMIST – Chem Eng Team Then I retired! I love playing in goal, even though I was rubbish! My reflex is very good, it is just my handling is poor, and so is my kicking. The feeling of catching a [...]

When I was in Hong Kong, I noticed something under my bed. It was my violin. My name was written across the case. Then a flurry of memories came back to me. BTW It was a waste of money because I wasn’t any good and I gave it up early. I did not start learning until first year [...]

My account of a not very typical but fun packed week (couple of weeks back…) Can I start from Saturday? oh go on then Saturday I went to an Retirement Show with my girlfriend, we started the day with some Tai Chi. It was so fun, we both enjoyed it very much. In the afternoon, [...]

WoW! This is my 200 Blog Posts… I am “Simple”, I am “Simon”, I am “Happy” and this was my “Day” today. 7:00am – Woke Up 7:15am – Got Up – Put my work face on and my HAIR up at a cool but looking professional angle 7:30am – Wondering around my flat to get [...]

I am talking about my memory skill. Is it a skill or a ability? Is it Nature or Nurture? Unfortunately I don’t have the answers. Nor I believe that I can be a character in Heroes. I mean what use would I be, I rather be Matt and read minds than collect vivid past memories [...]
