Watching the news. I’ve deleted all news sites from my mobile phone. I’m not browsing to any news sites anymore. Upside is I’m no longer getting frustrated with all the shit going on in the world. The downside is I’m completely devoid of any opinion whatsoever. I’m going to have to start reading books or my brains going to go to mush.

It’s a small world
Ran into this renegade in downtown Dubai. Haven’t seen him for almost a decade. It’s a very small world indeed.
Dubai baby
Just back from a three day whistle stop tour of UAE. Dubai blew my mind. So much money there. It’s evident everywhere you look. The hotel was off the charts luxury and it wasn’t even top of the range. I can’t imagine living there and not being affected by it.
Belated gotcha day
Nov 1 marked the 11th anniversary since my beloved Benson came into my life. He strutted in with a level of confidence that was unmatched and that attitude hasn’t changed much since. I want him to live forever and ever.
Thoughts on nothing
It’s 5.45 and I’m just about to get up. Benson is doing his doggy yoga and it’s pretty cold. 55 and I still hate getting out of bed. Makes me wonder what would Brian Boitano do if he was here right now?
Another week begins
So it’s been a week since I deleted all news apps from my mobile. I literally have no clue as to what’s going on in the world and it feels amazing 🤣
So what for my new empty head? Well let’s see what I can conjure up from the depths of the interweb. Probably some more tinkering around with home assistant automations.
Or I’ll finally wash those windows. (Probably not)
Happy Halloween
Headed out with the crew to The Butler last night. We were the first ones there in an act of unparalleled eagerness. Anyway I managed to make it until midnight after which I did the DannyDodge (a very undramatic exit stage left with no aplomb). Obvs very drunk.

I’m obsessed
With Korean and Japanese Netflix series. Every day another one drops and I find myself adding to the watchlist. Devils plan is excellent and brutal. Like survivor for nerds. Alice in borderland is a reimagining of super Mario and princess peach meets squid game but with a whole lot more blood and gore. Physical 100 shows how body obsessed athletes really are. It’s a longer list but if you’re looking for something new give some of them a go.
House Of Dynamite
Different perspectives of the same 18 tense minutes of a, I don’t have a clue what, anti-climatical bunch of balls
Two hours of my life I’ll never get back. Great cast, terrible movie.
Memories of Nepal
A wee morning coffee to remind me of Nepal.
We stayed two nights in Dingnoche as it was one of the acclimatisation stops on our Everest trek. After dinner on the first night we hit the town (tongue firmly in cheek) and checked out the local coffee houses, the coffee in the tea houses was terrible (oh the irony). Anyway we stumbled upon this place on our way back. It was an oasis in the desert. So laid back and well designed. I was taken by surprise to be honest. It felt like we were sitting in one of the funky cafes in Kathmandu Thamel area. Anyway we were totally full so we headed back the next evening for dinner and wow how amazing. I was so impressed I bought this coffee mug and a tote bag. It’s nice to have the memories triggered every now and then.
