I seem to have an unfortunate condition called I-can't-look-away-itis. This chronic illness manifests itself when bad movies or programs appear on TV.
One year I thought it would be a great idea to have the TV in the bedroom, but I was forced to abandon that scheme after I stayed up till 2am, night after night, mesmerised by ... more »

I had meant to start this blog auspiciously, perhaps in a similar manner to Willy Wonka's Golden Ticket.
"Greetings to you, the lucky finder of this blog!" (it would have said.)
"I would shake you warmly by the hand if it were physically possible! Mundane happenings are in store for you! Humdrum surprises await you! For now, I do invite you to.... more »
