Have a look at these two new websites. Neither are connected to the other; one is meant to be a bit of fun while the other is more serious.
I was sitting at my desk one day, bored, when my eyes settled on the calendar on my desk. Usually, the advice or saying seems to mean something but mostly it’s rubbish.
Then I wondered about all the other calendars out there today? Calendars in other countries, other cultures? And that’s why this blog exists. Hopefully it’ll also be a bit of fun.
So please take a moment - your calendar is right there beside you on your desk - and enter what advice you got today.

Two Tits and a Vote is a political action campaign, designed to get women to use their muscle as voters to take action around a single issue at a time. Men are very welcome to take part; the platform is merely aimed at mobilising women.
It’s built around the concept of “armchair activism.” Armchair activism enjoys reasonable take-up online, but is often decried as ultimately being rather useless because it rarely translates into the real world. I started to think a lot about how to merge all of the good stuff about armchair activism – it’s fast, it’s accessible, it’s not a big ask, and it delivers a feel-good factor to the participant – with actions that could actually take form in the real world.

It’s been a while since I posted here because I honestly can’t think of a single noteworthy thing to say. But tonight, I was messing about, and to my surprise, discovered that NTL Ireland were…well…I’ll let the picture do the talking.
The law of unintended consequences! (wiki)
I’ve written two posts (one, two) previously complaining about NTL Ireland’s poor customer service. Others responded but it seems like NTL Ireland may have the last laugh. And it’s based on a true story!!
A seasonal poem

With apologies to the English language…
« go back — keep looking »‘Tis the season to be jolly,
Lots of reason for acts of folly,
Turkey and ham, Brandy and wine,
Presents so wham, Gifts so fine,
T-shirts and socks, Handcreams and clocks.Family and friends gather round,
United in blood by ties that bound,
Celebrate whats Yours…Ours…Mine,
Those past times, those past Father Times,
We remember where our loyalties lie.To you and yours. Cheers everyone!!
