I continue with my 2.6 Challenge and Sunday was day 20, with my challenge to remake 26 movie moments. It was a silly and fun way to spend a Sunday, and I uploaded them all onto TikTok, but I thought I'd put them all together in a YouTube video, which I've included below. Don't forget … Continue reading 26 Movie Moments #2point6challenge

26 Haikus #2point6challenge
So, the 2.6 Challenge continues and today's was to write 26 haikus. I scribbled them on notes and on my phone and tweeted them throughout the day. I kinda liked doing it and it shows how my day went and a little stream of consciousness vibe to it. It's all to raise money for the … Continue reading 26 Haikus #2point6challenge
A Tale of Two Futures: 2518
This question courtesy of Pointless Overthinking: How do you think humanity will be in 500 years? Speculating about the future is a surefire way to make yourself look stupid to future generations. But I've made myself look stupid to the current one plenty of times, so why not add a future generation to the list? … Continue reading A Tale of Two Futures: 2518
The Tattoo I Don’t Regret Not Getting
It's been a long time since I got my first tattoo. I remember it clearly, being nervous as I took my seat, hoping that I wouldn't be such a wimp that I'd cry or have to stop. I hadn't made it easy for myself by choosing a big piece to pop my ink cherry. Thankfully, … Continue reading The Tattoo I Don’t Regret Not Getting
Cats and Zombies
2AM. Saturday morning. I have only a few hours until I have to get up for work, but I'm wide awake. And sleep isn't going to come easily. Why aren't I asleep? Because I've just had a nightmare. Yes, like a little kid, a bad dream has jolted me awake and now I'm lying in … Continue reading Cats and Zombies
Would You Rather? Part 7: Art, Space and Tacos
...would you rather live in the wilderness far from civilization or live on the streets of a big city as a homeless person? Homeless in a big city. I think in a city I could get by a bit better, I'm not really built for wilderness survival, whereas in a city I could probably scavenge … Continue reading Would You Rather? Part 7: Art, Space and Tacos
Mad MWF: The Road Warrior
The M5 slowed to a crawl as the cars filtered into the inside lane to pass a lorry standing still in the middle lane. In the outside lane was a car facing the wrong way, the driver side of the bonnet mangled, showing the cause of the delay. Truck vs car. Luckily all seemed unhurt … Continue reading Mad MWF: The Road Warrior
One Man’s Treasure
I worked in a pawn shop for a couple of months. It was grim. My boss was an utter wanker, the days were long and tedious, and there was a constant stream of depressed looking "customers". The boss would buy stuff off people who were in desperate need of some cash, and if they didn't … Continue reading One Man’s Treasure
Scribbles
I need a new winter coat. I have been saying this for some time and yet every month I find better ways to spend my money. But every time I wait for a bus or shiver on a walk to the shop I remind myself that I need a new coat. Of course, once back … Continue reading Scribbles
Annoyed (5)
The other day I was seriously annoyed at work. In the morning I'd caught the bus in and grabbed a copy of the Metro thinking that the Rush Hour Crush, sudokus and crossword would help pass the time. It tends to be quite quiet at the start of the shift so I settled in with … Continue reading Annoyed (5)
