I like to please people, that’s what motivates me. If I make someone else happy, that makes me happy. Some will probably call it a flaw, attention seaker and all that, but what care I ! I remember when I was building my Bentley model, my wife was still working then, I couldn’t wait for Read more

This is straight forward question I can answer. It is bit of a struggle though, as we don’t watch any movies that contain gratuitous violence. Before I go ahead with my list I would like to ask a question of all my readers. Many years ago as an apprentice decorative plasterer, I was working away Read more

Another unspecific question ! I love the universe I live in, I love the planet I live on, I love England my place of birth. Usually when people ask me where I live my trite answer is “here” because I am alive in that place, at that particular time, and most of the time I Read more

Rambling warning!!! There are now very few shops that cater for my hobby of building model cars, but to open such a shop would be tantamount to suicide, there just isn’t enough demand, most people now are not not interested in practical skills, it’s all instant gratification, and virtual reality, so no it wouldn’t be Read more

I’m not naive enough to think I could spin the world on its axis, and allow people to live as they should, in peace, and at peace with the natural world (See How I avoided a cliche there!) But, I would like to be a part of the machine that makes it happen, that is Read more
