Once a supplement to our, now defunct, website but now more of a personal peep through my window at the world, but still mostly drivel

Sometimes I feel that I want to have a mutter but that I am a bit stuck, but when I lose track I find the roadsign and I’m off once more. Anyway if all else fails I drivel on about ducks, frogs or bananas with the occasional young lady of course; and why these are [...]

It has been running at 50° before lunch recently, which is a shade on the warm side in my opinion, which is making life a bit difficult. At home of course our maid can dress down a bit and thereby keep her cool but here in the Gulf rules are a bit stricter. While, in [...]

I have had virtually no spare time recently and thus my mumbles have lost out, I am sure this has disappointed many, not! (As I believed was youthful parlance a decade or so ago – I am always a shade behind the times.) And many have got out that special coffee cup, I am sure, [...]

There are a number of Filipinos at my work and, since amongst them there is a habit of wishing people well on any defined day, I received a few “Happy Father’s Day” greetings. Not of course from my own sons or daughter, but that might be too much to ask, of course! Here are eldest [...]

I really seem to be slow to catch on things today, perhaps because we dined out last night and I was up beyond my normal very early bedtime, I wish I could take the opportunity given to students, to take a rest, but in one’s working life this is not an option. Anyway I have [...]

It has been pointed out to me that while Filipinas have their ways, ladies from other countries are just as drastic, if using less equipment.

My wife is a woman of beauty and style, like many Filipinas, but she is less forgiving than some. My ghast was fotally flabbered when she came back from tennis recently to tell me one of her player friends had discovered that her husband had five (yes, 5) affairs in the space of a year. [...]

It is far to early to be thinking about my next break and yet I feel less than my best and want to get sorted out. In the absence of the chance for a really good service instead I think of my next leave, sadly not likely to happen before August. And yet I feel [...]

I have a liking for computers, although not for my son with his battering of my biggest laptop. It looks to me that the hole left is about big enough for some of the small bugs we have in the Philippines to enter and I am not particularly happy about this. This liking makes me [...]
