Wat I did on my hollidays

I’m now in to the third day of my time off. Funny how I seem to feel less inclined to blog when I actually have time for it. On work days my fingers are itching to blog all the way home. Itching I tell you! Whereas now that I am home and could spend all …

I promise to tell the truth…

Saying nothing in many words

I don’t really have any particular point to make today (do I ever?), so I shall make this post a bullet pointy type list of whatever comes into my head, I think. – I actually did something for uni last night, believe it or not. I downloaded the German text to be translated then, in …

New Year’s Resolutions I didn’t make this year but probably should have…
