Blog of stuff I find interesting
My blog is not specific to any particular subject, it's more like a diary of my daily thoughts and experiences here in the UK. It's also a reflection of some of the things I may have an opinion on and wish to share and express generally. Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading it. If you have an opinion on the posts I make and the subjects I cover, please feel free to comment, without debate we'll stagnate. Share love, inspire peace and create lasting friendship. Friends hear what you dont say, and see what you don't display.

Water, water everywhere. But not enough as UK bans hose pipes?
Last Updated 2010-07-22 - 17:26:19 (CET)
It seems despite the floods, swollen rivers, storms and general wet days we get here in the UK, it's still no enough to avoid a drought being declared and the use of hose pipes being banned, with large fines if used.
Perhaps it's now the time for us to review the amount of water storage capacity we actually have here in the UK. As the population increases I doubt new reservoirs and other water storage facilities have been even considered. This is a must as I suggest that we don't have a shortage of rain water annually in the UK, we simply are inefficient at capturing this water and storing it. Will this be resolved United Utilities?... more

Nice day to be indoors I don't think.

Perhaps I simply need to choose a hobby that can't be done indoors, as most of my current interests require a 3 pin plug hmm. Fishing perhaps? more
Is the UK economy on the up?
Last Updated 2010-07-04 - 18:19:32 (CET)
I'm not convinced the UK (where I live) is anywhere near back on the economic stability track. Are house prices really rising? I think not when I see REDUCED in the estate agents windows only this week. Is retail on the up? I think not as many of the shops and pubs in my town are now boarded up. I feel people are still stuffing money (if they have any spare) under the mattress for better times, as even the banks are still ripping us of with interest rates many times over the base rate bei more

Time and tide waits for...
Last Updated 2010-06-30 - 17:08:48 (CET)
Time and tide waits for no one, or so it they say. Well I have to agree, as I celebrate my half century birthday today. Time to reflect on the past, and make sure my future plans are realistic and still have enough pull to help me achieve them. Otherwise it's just another day here in sunny England. more
The cycle of perpetual energy (C.O.P.E.)
Last Updated 2010-07-03 - 12:48:42 (CET)
The transfer of elementary particles from one state to another creates events. The universal effect of these transitions creates a perpetual cycle that has always existed and infinitely will. If an elementary particle truly has no substructure then it is one of the basic building blocks of the universe from which all other particles are made. The cycle of perpetual energy (C.O.P.E.) theory answers questions re more
Would you really believe it? I didn't
Last Updated 2010-06-29 - 19:31:36 (CET)
After weeks of very little rain here in the UK, and the grass on my lawn starting to burn off. I decided to get out my hose pipe and water it before hose pipe use is banned. Then, would you believe it, it clouded over poured with rain. Oh well, mustn't complain. more
