What podcasts are you listening to? Everyone has their own way of learning and taking in information, and I do learn by listening, but the weird thing is I need a person in front of me to hold my attention. Not weird you’re thinking. It is because I take more in if I look awayContinueContinue reading “I can’t get into them”

History
What was your favorite subject in school? Trouble is it’s scaring me now. I took history to degree level, where I learned that it isn’t about the past, it’s about applying the lessons of the past to the present to understand what’s going on, and predict the future as accurately as possible. One professor toldContinueContinue reading “History”
Badly
How do you manage screen time for yourself? I may be a wrinkly but if it’s modern it fascinates me. As soon as mobile phones appeared my fingers started to itch. I needed to know what this was about. Plus I did live in the country having moved from London, where there was a telephoneContinueContinue reading “Badly”
Time flies
Do you need time? Speaking as a person who was 21 a few short years ago and is somehow mid 60s now, I would describe time as a tricky thing. They say time flies when you’re having fun, turns out it flies when you’re not either. Even though time slows when you’re bored, it’s onlyContinueContinue reading “Time flies”
No idea
Just live! What will your life be like in three years? I don’t have a clue? Isn’t that wonderful?! I find that if you try to think ahead you will always see more of what you have now. Whereas if you go with the flow and keep your eyes wide open, you never know whatContinueContinue reading “No idea”
Too Easy
Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate. This kind of joy vibe! World peace day. Celebrated with music, song, dance, virtual international get togethers (until teleporting is a thing), and laughing at the ridiculous ways of the 21st Century. Being reminded of the stupidity of this world right now would be aContinueContinue reading “Too Easy”
Mine!
What are your favorite websites? Kidding. Okay I do l love my website and I should because it’s taken years to get it right. I’ve worked hard, and it’s there to help. That was the easy answer. The harder one is that I’m the eternal seeker of the new, so I siege a lot ofContinueContinue reading “Mine!”
More a Time
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live? I came out of a very bad marriage in 1991, 17 years with a gaslighter. This was compounded by a childhood of emotional hurt. At this point in my life I was badly bowed but not broken. You know how strong trees breakContinueContinue reading “More a Time”
You Can’t Ask an Historian That!
What historical event fascinates you the most? This is cruelty! I have to choose one thing?! Okay, the assassination of John F Kennedy. That was masterfully done right? However, who could possibly forget where they were when they heard the news? It was cataclysmic. Not only shocking but the whole thing has more cover upsContinueContinue reading “You Can’t Ask an Historian That!”
Killing is wrong
What’s something you believe everyone should know. Please note: When I say ‘start a war’ I’m not referring to troops, I’m referring to the powers that send in the troops. Yes I know I’m normally more creative than this but to be honest, the amount of killing in a so called modern world beggars belief,ContinueContinue reading “Killing is wrong”
