    Learning a foreign language

    I studied (in the crappest sense of the word) French for five years at school, but upon arrival at Boulogne some years later I found my vocabulary did not extend to being able to ask where the loo was (though I had a broad knowledge of the names of different types of hats). I'd now like to...

    Ukraine then

    I had a text from my mate in the US. He was worrying about how this Russia/NATO standoff would play out, and what about China? Would they use the distraction to occupy Taiwan. "Uhm. Boris ate some cake". I'm about as strategic as someone wiping dogshit on a car door handle but I assume...

    What are we drinking?

    Believe me - it tastes as good as it looks :roll:

    Any Twitter experts on here?

    I get a daily email from Twitter, tailored to meet my intellectual needs. This mostly features dogs or cats doing something funny. I open this email on my iPhone. Normally I click on the links and beam at the funny animals, but for the last couple of weeks whichever link I click on in this...

    Censoring the news

    I might be being naive here. But it's a subject that I feel warrants some thought. Do you remember the days before mobile phones when in the summer you'd jump on a plane to Spain/wherever and spend two weeks devoid of contact with Britain. You might occasionally chance upon a day-old Daily...

    Where you from then?

    Against my better judgement (I've always had this nagging feeling I'm possibly wanted for several unsolved murders committed while I was out on the ale) I recently had my DNA analysed. Given my mother used to bang on about how English she was, this has come as something of a surprise: 97%...

    Daytime drinking in Swansea

    I'm meeting an old friend tomorrow. It's his first visit. I'm not well-versed on Swansea's pubs so I've shortlisted a few for a 4 hour Saturday afternoon crawl but would appreciate anyone's input. We are gents of a certain age so it'll be more about comfortable surroundings and good beer than...

    High-pitched whistle/hum vibration sound

    I can hear it now. 3:40am. Sketty. It's coming from east of here, I reckon. It lasts a couple of seconds. Then it's quiet for a moment, then repeats. It resembles that noise made when you wet your finger and rub it around the rim of a glass. Anyone else hear it?

    Renaming the Black Boys?

    There's a story on the BBC this morning about Greene King renaming some of their Black Boy pubs. Naturally my mind turned to the one in Killay. One google later I wound up reading such an interesting piece by Swansea-born mixed race chap that I decided to share...

    Has your dentist ever ticked you off?

    Well don't just sit there like a "do nothing" loser. Follow him. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-53988872

    Eek. My back hurts

    Any recommendations for an osteopath? I see there are a couple here in Sketty but I'm happy to go with a referral if anyone has had a good experience with one elsewhere in Swansea? It's my SI joint that's playing up. Bloody Joe Wicks :x
