Today I learned some absolutely horrific news: a job that I’d completed through Guru.com was paid for using fraudulent means, even though Guru’s escrow service was used. It essentially means that I carried out a job for absolutely nothing, which I absolutely hate doing. Actually, I am out of pocket a little, because I had to [...] Read Full Story

I was greatly embarrassed and upset to learn that someone had informed on me – and misquoted me – about my post on the DateCrasher lock and key party on the boat, which is no longer here. For the record, I wasn’t “slagging off” the event at all, but rather I had issues with some of [...] Read Full Story

I heard the rumours and the news reports coming in late last night, but this morning it was confirmed on the front of the Metro: Michael Jackson died of a heart attack yesterday.

I could write at least 20 pages of bad experiences and miserable failures with women I’ve had in the past, simply because there have been so many and I’ve really known nothing but failure with women. Even though I have been able to get numbers, have been kissed and have even gone further at times, [...] Read Full Story

Last week, voting for the European Elections took place in schools and public places across the UK. Although I hadn’t gotten a ballot card in the post, and had almost forgotten about the whole thing, I did what every decent civillian should and went out to vote. I’m pleased to say that my voted for party [...] Read Full Story

Recently I found myself in an incredibly familiar situation: I was pining for someone I’d lost, whom I knew was no good for me at all.
