Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

Location: Didcot, Oxon, United Kingdom

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

Welcome

Hello. I'm not sure how this is all going to go. A bit of a random mixture of deep and meaningless philosophy, worries about the world, stuff about my general interests, and general life. Oh, and lots of rants (hence the url!!).

The three promises I make are as follows:
- I will try to regularly update this weblog;
- I will try to make sure that all postings are grammatically correct;
- The postings will be of the least possible interest to anyone.

Whether it all happens or not is a different matter! I have to go now, the dog won't behave himself.

Warning: views expressed in this weblog may be ill-informed, opinionated, inflammatory, nonsensical, plagiarised or just plain wrong. As far as possible, they will be grammatically correct. No journalistic ability or integrity on behalf of the author or reader is assumed.

You've already failed on one of your promises. I am afraid your posts interested me. Please try to be more dull.

Don't worry about taking a pay cut!!! You'll have so much fun in your new fun avocation that you'll wonder why it took so long. And you'll might get even healthier and saftier.

Great random mixture.


thanks,
