I'm struggling with my emotions today. I can't stand seeing 50-60 year olds swapping houses on facebay. My brief angry stalking of various recent victims of this particular rant shows that they are often women who aren't married; divorced or with long term boyfriends. They seem to go on a lot of holidays. They don't… Continue reading Unfair

Who also happens to be a functioning addict, manic depressive oddball with a whimsical grasp on reality.
Will that do as an introduction?
No vaccine?
So I'm gonna start here with, I had no vaccines. I'm gonna move onto: I'm not gonna spit theories and names and dates of why you should or shouldn't.

A bit of cash between pocket money and babysitting at the beginning, to a Saturday job in estate agency by the time I was 16. Lack of regulations… Continue reading Nostaliga

What do people do when they need to apply for jobs whilst currently working full time? And I don't mean the old style… Continue reading Time
