ABOUT ME

So what’s to know about me…I guess I have to do some overview of me, how I got here and what made me feel the need to write a blog. Well to get to the point, about 2-years ago my Wife (for now, pending the success of this cathartic release exercise the internet age calls ‘blogging’), decided that rather than continually rant about life’s misfortunes (to her), I should put my thoughts and opinions into a blog…or go to the garage and share my concerns with the lawnmower…just stop bringing them in the house was the end game.

She has a point, but unfortunately I then took 2-years to put this into action, in which time we’ve had our first child (believe me, this is certainly one way of blocking me out given how much attention they require), which leaves my father to take the full force of my ranting. However, I’m in good company there, as although this apple initially fell far from the tree, in the past few years it’s rolled back down the hill and we’ve become two ranting old men during my Saturday morning dog walk.

My blog however, is finally here and each week or whenever life lets me, I will try to direct all my ranting, anguish, points of view into this blog to avoid alienating anymore friends, blowing up their phones due to elongated WhatsApp messages and generally just being more bearable to live with for my Wife, child and dog.

There is no structure or boundaries to these rants, and although I think they should be the opinions of everyone, they are solely mine. Hopefully you’ll find them an enjoyable read, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t, as this is a space for me to vent and for you to listen.
