While my ideas for this blog seem to be a well that’s drying up, in the meantime it feels as if my blog is being ‘mined’ for ideas and inspiration for the SM social media – which is a bloody nice thing if so. I honestly don’t mind. The things may as well be of…
I’ve recorded a vlog post airing how I’m currently feeling – mostly the dilemma I am feeling about what the bloody hell to do with this blog. I just don’t know any more…. (P.S. Despite the look of the video ident, you WILL be subjected to my awful face. Apologies in advance.)
I have been delving into the extended mixes offered by the YouTube channel 110Berlin and their output is getting very good indeed.

Today Jim has posted about, understandably, still reeling from John Giblin’s passing. The weather in Tao at present seems to be fitting the tone. My friend, Michelle, is currently over there, so I’ve had a somewhat vested interest in keeping an eye on the weather out there. Good weather is set to return in time…

I’m up early this morning, in readiness for the final stint of study and assignment work. Uni breaks up for the summer officially on Thursday. I didn’t expect to have any headspace for this week’s MMM but I have a few minutes up my sleeve while I down my first morning coffee. On pondering what…
