Retired Company Secretary.

I enjoy my hobbies: walking, photography, music, board games, wargames, reading, studying, and life.

Please note that I am not interested in any "opportunities", be they investments, crypto-currency, or such nonsense.

Everything these days seems to be powered by AI. It is reminiscent of when cheap LED clocks appeared on everything.

Back in from a walk in the rain, nursing a mug of hot soup and listening to Tommy.

I'm planning a quiet New Year's Eve, just me and a good whisky with some good tunes. Starting the day with the Grateful Dead.

"Your parcel has been delivered and received by Ian." Er, no, it hasn't.

Another epic DPD UK fail!

It looks like my parcel of supplies for my insulin pump has been delivered to a random address (not even in the same block of flats).

Today five of us gathered for a big game of Clash of Steel. It was a bad day for the Soviets but fun was had by all.

I would feel uncomfortable using genocide backing Starbucks. Fortunately, given the piss-poor quality of their coffee, it isn't hard to #boycottStarbucks.

1) Starbucks supports genocide; and
2) Their coffee is as weak as piss.

Hate genocide, love coffee, boycott Starbucks.

The Devil You Know: Stories of Human Cruelty and Compassion

Gwen Adshead

This is a compelling narrative of the author's extensive work with criminals, primarily in Broadmoor and private practice.

Hi, I just joined.

I am a refugee from the toxic social media world of Musk's #Twitter (X).

I hope to find more positive and meaningful engagement using #Bluesky.
