My Sherlock ending theory

Just a quick post this, but after rewatching it I think I’ve figured this “how did Sherlock do it?” thing. When Sherlock first looks over the edge and asks “for a moment by myself”, there’s a bus parked alongside the hospital. After a minute or so, and next time we look down, there’s a lorry … Continue reading »

Cocked, locked and ready to chop(per)

I’ve always been heavy into bikes and cycling. When I was a kid, every Sunday when my dad was out cleaning his car I’d be there alongside him, detailing my bicycles. One year, my dad got a book that was called something like “The Complete Guide to Bicycle Maintenance”, and I eagerly read it cover … Continue reading »

One week (and over two kilos) down

As I mentioned at the start of the week, this week I decided to get back on the training because I’ve become a right fatty as of late. It’s been a knackering week of training with six hard sessions completed, but it’s totally been worth it so far. I’m a big fan of ‘muscle confusion’ … Continue reading »

Why I won’t be going back on X Factor

Those of you who have been following the various versions of my little blog since I started way back in 2006 (God, has it really been that long), will of course remember that two years ago, I was on the X Factor. Ok, I didn’t get as far as I might have liked to at … Continue reading »

All I want for Christmas

Every year, around April, my mum asks for my Christmas list. Ok, so I exaggerate slightly, but it’s usually pretty early in the year. This year, I sat around for a long time trying to think of something… anything… that I wanted. It’s a hard task. I’m not a man that wants for much. I … Continue reading »

Out with old, in with the new… tooth

You may remember that a week or two ago I went to the dentist and found out that I had a… well… a wrecked tooth. Well, over the weekend, the entire tooth collapses and the back of it fell off. Not painful, but meant that I was left with a sharp edge that was irritating … Continue reading »

Badass of the day

Very few things in the world ever make me say “wow” out-loud these days. I blame the Internet. It’s desensitised me to pretty much everything, and it’s hard to think of something that I haven’t seen before. Whether it’s a farting panda, spinning butchers knife nun-chucks or bad parkour squirrels I sometimes feel like I’ve … Continue reading »

My birthday comes early this year

Last night, the Monsters in-law came down to Bristol for the day in order to take Miss Monster and I out for dinner and to the theatre to see the Queen musical ‘We Will Rock You’. More on that later. What I didn’t realise is that they were doing this for my birthday – which … Continue reading »

400!

This is my 400th post. 400. That’s loads. Thanks to everyone who reads my blog, I love you all.

Dodging a tooth shaped bullet

First and foremost, check out my gnashers. With that aside, on with the tale. Before today, I hadn’t been to the dentist for the best part of a decade and a half. Yep, almost fifteen years. Pretty much half of my life. It wasn’t because of fear or anything silly like that, just that when … Continue reading »
