Percy Jackson and The Lightening Thief, Best Childrens Book, Average Film

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

When I watched  trailers for Avatar, one blockbusters trailer caused me to shake and pass a droplet of wee in excitment.
I saw a trailer of a Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief,  not since Clash of the Titans where Harry Hamlin fought Morph’s ugly brothers has my Geeky childhood obsession of Greek Mythology made [...]

Get Your VHS videos onto DVD

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

amazing collection of events from the Garden Festival Wales 92, as well as events such as concerts, sporting events and other miscellaneous event that happened in around Blaenau Gwent in the 80’s and 90’s. He has kept everything and is spending his well earned retirement converting everything to DVD disc format.

Did Glyn Walter ever film your wedding, school or Christmas play, theatrical performance, anniversary, sporting events or choir. If he did its odds on he has it now on DVD.

Are Self Defence Classes the Best Workout Possible?

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

After the Doc told me that I have to knock the rugby on the head due to the Bonk Leg (club foot). I decided I would get back into the martial arts. After searching for  self defence classes in South Wales particularly  Krav Maga classes,  I found the class I was looking for – [...]

Coping with the Shit

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Being made redundant, it is an obvious kick to the knackers.
It is easy to spiral into a rut getting up late, shouting at Jeremy Kyles band of trained mutants, taking two hours to read the Sun and treating a trip to town as some fantastic voyage that will take a marathon like effort that can [...]

National Lampoons Butlins Vacation – Part 1

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

A week long holiday in Butlins Minehead had been booked. The kids were more excited than a bucket of wasps.  The “sunshine, lollipops” advert had whipped the kids into such a frenzy it was like living in a musical, every sentence that came out of their mouths was sung decibels above the comfort zone, while [...]

Man of the Match is better than being Captain.

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

I apologise for my lack of posting lately. I promise I will write every day for 20 mins.
As an avid rugby player I can’t help using rugby analogies in my day to day work and life in general.
Some players place so much importance on being  the Captain, making sure that people do exactly what they [...]

Golden Rule of Business

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

There is a pandemic problem in businesses,  there is still little or no understanding of Return On Investement (ROI)
ROI means exactly what it is says,  basically if you spend £1 on something that something should at the very least make £1.01 back. Money spent on a paperclip should make a return by way of organising [...]

Crazy Thomas

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

I dont know what got into my boy when I got home from work, (apologies for the sideyness of the vidoe) he ran in a circle for 20mins then turned into Conan the Flower Swinger. (He didn’t hurt, Josie the flower is only made of material, you can hear her laughing in the video)
I had [...]

Bonk Legged Bullying

Saturday, March 14th, 2009

I am afraid the publicity the bonk leg is getting is causing untold problems for me on the rugby field.
Twice in as many games the Bonk has been needlessly targetted and has been stamped on, leaving me in unable to carry on due to damage.
The Bonk has had to reschedule two public appearances, an opening [...]
