Not like that, like that!
What could you do differently? I could . . . where shall I start? Life throws stuff at you, don’t you find. I’m reminded of a pub in England I used to go to. It was a quaint old place, a typical’ English pub with low ceilings and beams. Inglenook fireplace. Got the picture? There…

Don’t forget to smell the roses
If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say? I love this picture. Astronomers had been looking up for centuries but recently, with the help of new technology, they found a black patch in the universe. It was 1cm square (that’s about quarter of an inch in old money) and it was black, nothing…

Time is a one way stream . . .
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why? It would be so easy to look back and . . . what? What can you change? I’ve met more than a fair share of people who constantly beat themselves up or get bitter and twisted about decisions that affected their life…

Get a puppy! 😍😍😍
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you? Repetitive, boring, endless platform games. Bleugh! A puppy on the other hand can be endless fun.

OK, in this century they think it’s a “new year” completely unaware that some bloke with a funny hat changed the calendar some time ago. Human behaviour is one challenge but I have to accept…

Nostalgia, not what it used to be!
What makes you feel nostalgic? Smells can flip my switch. A freshly cooked moussaka just out the oven! Mmmmmmmmm. Then suddenly I’m back in Greece with my Mum and Aunties and cousins. Going to the beach, throwing bricks from a 3rd floor into an oil drum full of water with my younger brother. Going to…

Sportsters disunited NIMY
If you started a sports team, what would the colors and mascot be? Strictly for 50+ men and women as a ‘team’ playing football but to the rules of tennis. When you score it’s 15 love, then 30 etc. If the ball goes out of play you just start again. When you score you keep…

Large picture window, comfy chair, endless supply of quality books
You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like? West facing since you ask. I want to stop and think and admire a magnificent sunset behind my huge cedar tree full of birds saying goodnight to each other. Comfy chair, hmm. Well upholstered but not too squidgy. I want to…

TR6 or E-type series 2??? Aaarrrggghhh!
What is your all time favorite automobile? Dilemma: the agony created by 2 opposite but equally enjoyable options (and quite possibly 2 of your worse nightmares!) The TR series from Triumph motor cars in the UK was a constant development of a sports car idea that was available to the ‘ordinary’ bloke who couldn’t afford…
