The Degeneration of the Winning Society

Ok, I may over emphasise this, but, an observation I made over the weekend at a childs party. I’ve noticed this a few times now… when playing party games like for example pass-the-parcel, everyone gets to win! Yes, that’s right it’s a fix… what happened to randomly turning the music off and the best person won… the person who’d hung on to it for the longest possible time without getting a slap. Now, we’re all winners… We’ll all get a gold medal at the olympics!

Strange Keywords

Every now and then I check my web stats to see how people get to my site and from where… looking at the search engine keyword list is always amusing. As I have so much content of varying stuff, I often generate strange hits… but how about this one last month.

That hit one of my pages!

Happy Birthday to me!

Yep, 34 today! Where has the time gone,? 34 years, “…don’t they go by in a blink”

My brother, sisteer-in-law and their son stayed with use over the weekend. It’s nice to have other members of the family around on a birthday. Luckily my birthday fell on a weekend so I didn’t have to take the day off work; I don’t work on my birthday, never have, never will.
