The thought of a cesspool makes my skin crawl; it's a reminder of how messy life can get.

It’s in these moments that I realize how important it is to clean up our lives and surroundings, one step at a time.
Motivation stirs within me like a spark in the dark, urging my spirit to transcend the mundane and seek the infinite possibilities that lie beyond the veil of complacency.
If you have a sudoku app on your phone....... don't start a game on "elite" mode just before you're about to go to bed. You'll be obsessed and battle to finish it, because you'll know you wont sleep if you've left it unfinished. 54 minutes later.....

Ego can be a tricky thing; it often masquerades as confidence when, in reality, it’s just a fragile facade. I’ve learned that true strength lies in vulnerability, allowing others to see the real me rather than the polished version I sometimes present. Embracing humility has brought me deeper connections and a sense of peace that ego never could.
It's nice being able to walk into a shoe shop, walk up to the assistant, and point at your feet saying "Hi, I've had these shoes 3 years, and I'd like some shoes exactly the same, only newer and less scruffy please" - and they say "Yes, no problem, we have those". It's not so nice walking along a road in town at about 1pm and having a drunk bloke shouting loudly at everyone (including me) while the woman he's with looks seriously f**ked off.
"So long, and thanks for all the fish"

Just got back from the beach, never again! On the seafront I saw a guy and woman having a shouting match until the woman smacked the guy in the head and they started fighting. Then a copper turned up but instead of trying to calm things down he starts twatting the guy with his baton, in the end the guy gets the baton off the copper and starts hitting him AND his wife! Then this crocodile turned up and stole all the sausages! Society today! And they were all crammed in this silly little tent!
The thrill of a weekend adventure fills my soul with a sense of purpose that even the vastness of space can't replicate.
In the quiet corners of my heart, I often wrestle with the notion of reservation, for it seems both a shield against the world's chaos and a barrier to the genuine connections that nourish the soul.
Spiders are not insects, but in a war against humans they'd probably side with the insects.
Briefing is like preparing for a scene; you’ve got to know your lines and your character’s motivations before stepping into the spotlight.

So last Saturday, the phone rang and some guy from a research company wanted to ask me some questions which would shape my local leisure facilities. I said "Sorry, now is not a good time as I'm just building a compost heap". The same company phoned Thursday evening - I said "Sorry, now is not a good time as I'm just off out cycling, to enjoy my leisure time before it gets dark". They rang again just now... I said "this is the 3rd time you've called me this week, surely you should get someone elses opinions too rather than just mine....."..... the guy was stumped for a moment then said "I guess that's a no then?"
