Stats, facts and trivia. Me filling your brain with pointless stories basically. Or posts with a “moral” at the end. Often a joke.
When you watch the family rom-coms about temporary, petty divorces or affairs or people taking up obscure hobbies or getting fired or needing money or taking a vacation, something they are always highlighting is the featured character’s mid-life crisis. But no-one ever tells you about the crisis that starts in year 7 until you complete education. Just this week […]
Sometimes the most dangerous things are those that don’t appear to be and that you don’t take precautions with. For example, in 2003 11,788 people were taken to hospital following accidents while putting on socks, tights or stockings whereas, you are more likely to be killed by a donkey than in a plane crash. Logic, […]
Sometimes simply seeing someone smile makes me happy. However gappy, goofy or great that grin is it just warms me a little inside. So do me a favour and smile today. For some of you you’ll be thinking, I smile all the time anyway! Well just keep up the good work. Others of you might […]
This title has two meanings to it really, I am currently in the land of the fluffy mammal but also, today (but not this today, the today when I scheduled this post) marks an extremely special day. First, let me tease you a little! Find X. X is the smallest square that can be written as a […]
This poor thing feels alone and unloved. If we stop using him, he’ll become like “Brabble“, “Younker” or “Frigorific“.

So, if you’re reading this after 10:20 am I’ve had my French speaking exam and now I’m stressing about the Spanish… which is in two days D: So, of course I’ve written this post in advance and I wanted to smoothly link it in with the fact that I have a speaking exam, so here […]
Whilst *ahem* revising for my french the other day, I found myself fantasising about food, which is something I often do, and suddenly a question popped into my head: “Why do doughnuts have holes in the middle?” Now, I will answer this question via some quick research. I’ll be with you in a jiffy! Turns out, […]
By some sort of fluke, I have tried something new without even trying! There is no video (sorry) and I know it’s late (again: I’m sorry) but some things haven’t panned out the way I wanted them to but I suppose, that’s life for you: perfectly uncontrollable. Anyway, I rediscovered something that I do almost […]
