Sunday 5 February 2006
As I sit in front of the lcd screen, chapter five, up and on-screen, and ready for my imagination, I find myself torn. Yes, there are only, maybe, 20,000 words more to write: just one and a half more chapters….

I was just outside in the front garden, shifting my compost bin (in readiness maybe for a blue recycle bin – to replace the box) and generally tidying up when my neighbours came back. We had a bit of a…

I try not to watch the utter crap that is Big Brother (and let’s face it, whether you watch it, or not, it is), however it has occurred to that I would love a writer to go into that house…

The nice man from ParcelForce did the exchange today in the postroom at work. I handed over the faulty Digifusion box, and in return, I got my Folio Society Books and my nice new Humax PVR9200T. Tonight I got it…

Why is it that whenever there’s anything half-decent to watch on tele, it clashes with something else good on tele? As has been aforementioned in these pages, tonight there is episode two of BBC1’s drama The Virgin Queen, ITV are…

Sunday 29 January 2006
Despite the mild annoyance of broken digiboxes and middle-of-the-night-pukings, yesterday was actually a good day. In the morning, I headed off to Abingdon for a spot of swimming. I upped my lap total to 44 lengths in c. 50 minutes,…

Edit: shepline is semi-digital
Saturday 28 January 2006
Well it seems that my Digifusion box is faulty. I haven’t spoken to the helpline yet (‘cos they’re not open at weekends) but it’s definitely not behaving as it ought (my brother has a similar model so he’s been guiding…

Friday 27 January 2006
My Digifusion box arrived today, and now, to complement the wireless internet access in my house, the abode is filled with a whole new set of digital channels. Just how many of them I’ll ever watch we have yet to…

Search for shepline on Google China, and you will find that I am there, complete and uncensored. Does this mean that I am down with Chinese Government? Probably not by the time this post has been indexed and analysed…

Monday 23 January 2006
There isn’t really a question. Not only are gas and coal power stations choking the environment but we are running out of these non-renewable resources. We have to go nuclear. That said, it’s also not the whole answer. We have…

Monday 23 January 2006
Okay, maybe not ‘near death’, but a serious health and safety issue. There I was innocently having my lunch downstairs in the canteen today, someone had just left, and so I moved up the table by one seat, and minutes…

With another 450 words written tonight, and a storm raging again, this time hiding the evil followers of a secretive god, I am within spittings distance of having just 1½ chapters more to write. Mind you that is still the…

It’s occurred to me today, that, after the events of yesterday, I should feel really, really pleased with how I did. I’ve never ever done a formal presentation before (unless you count my lamitable attempts at college where I would…

There were a few comments today about my shirt and tie attire. I just shrugged it off as, yeah I’ve got some meeting. Yeah right, I wouldn’t believe me if I told me that! But anyway nothing more was said……

I have just eaten a very tasty yet simple hunter’s chicken stew or Jamie Oliver’s Pollo alla cacciatora. Last night, I was asleep by nine-thirty, I think because of my swimming earlier in the day… Today, I ahve been mixing…
