50 FFS
So today I'm 50. That's not an issue, beyond the obvious dwindling of my capacities. More a case of what the hell have I done with 50 years? Aside Before you worry this will be too deep, as Ford Prefect might say, don't panic, the following is just minor introspection and largely obvious realisations. It's not … Continue reading 50 FFS
Post Op – Notes from the Far Side
A quick bulletin for folks wanting a hospital update from yesterday as it seems cruel to leave anyone hanging who is not in the immediate communication circle.

And you'll perhaps think I'm losing … Continue reading Fate – Part 1: My brother’s keeper / Life threatening steak
Murals / Art 2 (Brazil flashback)
Although we're back home there's some items I'll continue to post amongst the other flotsam and jetsam that strikes me as worth writing about. So another homage to Grace Jones but as it was near the small fishing port in Rio Vermelho, Salvador she has been transported to the mermaid world. They've also found Bigfoot … Continue reading Murals / Art 2 (Brazil flashback)
