running, reading, nonsense.
It is the month of lists. Christmas lists. Best of the year run downs. And this year, seeing as it's a '19 and all, we'll be seeing a lot of best of the DECADE lists. This, I think, is impossible. There is no way that we're about to exist in a different decade to 2010,… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 08/12
Photo by Caroline Hernandez on Unsplash Ho ho ho, let’s go go go and look at another week full of pop culture and books and games and all kinds of nice stuff. It’s the first of that magical month of December. Sick of it all yet? Have you already heard Last Christmas 87 times? Are you wishing for… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 01/12
The news is a bit grim at the minute. I don’t think we should ignore it, but we don’t need to carry the weight that the tumultuous world throws on our shoulders all of the time. Sometimes we need to shrug it off and delve down deep into a blanket of stuff. So as we… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 24/11
Here we are on Hallows Eve, and I’m taking on a really classic classic in celebration. It is a story that we all know, or a story that we all think we know at the very least. In the afterglow of having actually read the book for myself, I can say most certainly that I… Continue reading Frankenstein
It's Halloween week. For the most part I really don't care about that, sorry, but as you may already know I am using it as an excuse to expand my horror knowledge by getting in to some classic genre fiction.

Whilst I’m out dying, how about you take a look at all the stuff that’s been keeping my sanity in check this week, or should I say the last… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 13/10
And so another week trots on by as the year disappears, and boy is it disappearing. Strictly is on the telly, the leaves are changing colour, and oh what’s that? You’re saying that the shops have got Christmas bits in already? Yes of course they have. OF COURSE THEY HAVE. Every year I try not… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 15/09
Buongiorno. I don’t what it is with me and the Italian language, but I’ve always wanted to learn it, and I’ve tried several times. It would be far more practical to pursue one of the languages that I began at school - French or Spanish - but I just…don’t want to. What I’m saying is… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 04/08
It's been a little while, but I've not given up on my mission to fill in the blanks in my classic portfolio. I get back in the groove with this depressing Depression era novella...
Sunday Morning Stuff is back and I’m writing it on a terribly warm Saturday night because on actual Sunday morning I’ll be going to work and... It’s hot. Difficult to think about anything else other than how hot it is. We’re just not really cut out for 30 degrees here in Blighty, no one has… Continue reading Sunday Morning Stuff 30/06
