‘Start as you mean to go on’ is a phrase that people seem to continually use on the first day of a new year. Its a stupid phrase and doesn’t really apply to many things. For example a triathlon. If you started with swimming and then tried to swim through the cycling and running events, […]
Its the last ever day of 2009, and, much like the end of every year, it feels pretty much the same as the middle of the year or the beginning or any other bit. Without meaning to sound bah humbug or whatever the NYE equivalent is, I’m never really that fussed about the promise of […]
As of today I have blogged everyday for an entire year! That’s 365 blogs, which is 8 million paragraphs, 670 trillion sentences and 900 bazillion words*. I’ve used more words than you’ve had accidents on a space hopper**. There have been some cheat days, and there was the one day in Bestival where I was […]
Some of you long time blog readers may remember this: http://tiernandouieb.blogspot.com/2009/09/broken.html Well today is the day we finally go and get a new freezer. ‘How on earth have we survived so long without the ability to freeze foods?’ I hear you ask. Well, its simple really. We have a tiny tiny freezer in our fridge, […]
I have decided that I am currently conducting an experiment to see if I can do so little with my time that I ‘undo’ things. Perhaps resulting in a creation of masses of negative energy which in turn could open up a tiny black hole which would then suck in all the excess fat I’ve […]

My stomach and guts are having issues with me. Whilst I am really very happy with the vast amounts of booze and food I consumed yesterday, they are less pleased. Yet, what neither of them know, is that they will be subjected to the same level of destruction again today. Yeah! Take that guts! While […]
Look its Christmas, so I’m not really going to blog. There is drinking and eating to do, so little time to write waffle and if I did it would all be writing waffle on what I’m going to eat and drink, which by the way, is loads. And forgetting my selfish nature you probably don’t […]
IT’S CHRISTMAS EVE! I typed that as though I was excited. I am a bit, but not loads mostly on account of being over 10 years old. Its also because I got given a present from Santa early yesterday. It was a massive spot on my forehead, bright red like a burning beacon to herald […]
I’ve just finished all my Christmas shopping. It should have been finished yesterday but there was one person to buy for who was difficult. There is always one. Every year I nail all the present buying in a single shop based movement, only for one awkward individual to step up to system and catch me […]
