I am in a hospital bay, with five other patients. Being in such close proximity during the day and night, there is little room for privacy, between all the inmates.
You can hear them chatting to their visitors, what they’re watching on TV – you even hear their bloody farts!
Another thing you fast become privy too, is their telephone conversations. For a nosey bored person, like me, this can be interesting and passes the time between the 12noon lunch and 5pm supper.
Not all conversations are of a subject you wish to hear. A patient in a neighbouring bed, was on the telephone to his wife.
Unfortunately, the “lady” on the other end of the phone uttered the words…
A darky came along
as well as
The drivers are all bloody Polish
I shouldn’t really get worked up by this – not when you consider the intelligence of the racist woman.
As I continued to eavesdrop, I learnt of two of the television programmes, Eva Braun was planning to watch…
Britain’s Top 100 Dogs and Danny Dyer’s Royal Family
God help us all…

- It Had Been Going On Too Long: Part 2

- The STI Clinic
After sharing my latest ailments with anyone patient enough to listen, I received a well-educated guess of a diagnosis, where my mouthful of sores is concerned.
I actually received the same diagnosis from two separate individuals, which means it is almost certainly correct and just one step away from being as accurate as Dr Google.
... seriously,... - Cry Me A River
Just when you think that you have reached the end of the world's worst afternoon tea service, the chef brings you out another shit sandwich.
This has been my last three weeks.
With Claire returning to work, it was my turn to approach something of a normal and meaningful existence. Things were sounding good with my employer...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
