The Suns coming back out

The Suns coming back out

The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray. Unfortunately, I’ll be observing from under a parasol, wrapped in SPF and simmering gently in the shade like a forgotten casserole. Why? Because on the 14th, I’m booked in for a lesion excision. Yes. While the rest of the world is out absorbing Vitamin [...]

The Waiting game

The Waiting game

Here, in the quiet, windblown shores of the British seaside, we witness a rare and fascinating spectacle, the hopeful female of the species in her natural habitat a seaside café with dirty tables and a distinct smell of fish.

Outfit always slaying. Waist? Snatched. In Second Life, I’m everything my real life joints won’t let me be. I strut digital [...]

There are no ticking clocks or unpaid debts. No heavy thoughts or headlines news. Just quiet skies and weightless days, where time dissolves in [...]
