"Want to feel old?"

No. No, I do not want to feel old. Do not tell me the thing that will make me feel old

Amazing how such a trivial thing can make you miss a place so much. For me it’s the clanking of the flagpoles on the Millennium Walkway in Cardiff

A standing stone with a plaque in front. It’s a bluestone from this area of the Preseli hills. In the distance is Foel Drygarn, a hill fort.

We left Cardiff two years ago today. I’ve come back briefly to visit all my favourite places and I miss it dreadfully

I really need to up my meme game. There are only so many situations where Homer disappearing into the hedge and the duplicate Spidermen are appropriate

At the Beeb, meetings scheduled to start on the hour usually actually start at about three minutes past. Some people compensate for this and schedule meetings for five past - these meetings actually start at eight minutes past
