The Blog Strategy

I have a dream. Not really a dream, more of an idea. Even to call it an idea is a bit strong, so lets call it a strategy. I am a huge WordPress fan, and I enjoy the whole blogging experience here. It is just so simple to add new content, even for those who…

Movie night, and a burning desire for fudge…

Don’t judge a book by its cover. The dishevelled looking crazy person on the bus; the one hunched over in his seat, looking at the ground and rummaging through his bags is not, in fact, insane. He is actually an intelligent being who looks exhausted because he sprinted up the road after this bus, which…

Baking…it’s not brain surgery

I’ve been baking (did the title give it away?) over the past weekend, and it has been great. So far I’ve made peanut butter cookies and beetroot chocolate cake. I also got to do some cooking, and made duck with almonds from an old Chinese recipe cookbook, which turned out pretty good. There was no…

Blood, and other stuff

This has been one hectic week, and I couldn’t be happier to see the weekend. Don’t get me wrong, it was fun and I learned a lot, but there was so much packed into each day I was completely exhausted by the end of it. There’s nothing worse than waking up in darkness, getting ready,…

I’m sorry, Niall. I’m so, so, sorry…

I got some flak for not having my regular post on Friday, and all I can say is that things have been incredibly busy the last month! Even last weekend I had visitors staying, which was really cool, but kinda left me no time whatsoever to think about writing. I didn’t even manage to get…

JBL Eon Mark 2 speakers – NOW SOLD

Thanks for the views, but the speakers are now sold. The post will be left up here for archive purposes. ———————————————————- Here’s the story so far. My brother moved out to the states last year and has been home visiting for the last few weeks. He has a lot of stuff here, and is selling…

Ads, or ad-free: what do you think?

It was brought to my attention a while back by Aaron (who’s blog is here, if you’re interested, which you should be!) that ads were being displayed at the bottom of my blog posts. At first I didn’t believe him, as I was unable to see anything there, but when I tried from another computer, there…

Cases, vegan baking, and other jazz

What am I to write about this week? My second week in Altnagelvin, and my first case has been written up. That was an ordeal, but I’m hoping the first one is the hardest and after that things should be easier. Normally, for each attachment we have to write up at least one case, that…

The Einsteinian Method

I keep stumbling across partially written entries, or ideas for posts, only to realise them at a later date when I’ve got some free time. Today is no different, and here is something I jotted down a month or so back. Weeding in Granda’s driveway allowed me to clear my mind completely, and begin to…

Stranger

Again, I’ve been falling behind. I will say that I’ll have a proper post up at the weekend, as right now there’s too much going on to write really – my mind is focused on arthritis! If you didn’t already know, I’m on placement up in Altnagelvin hospital in Derry (I’m using it for convenience,…
