R.I.P. Seamus Heaney - A Legend Without Whom I May Not Have Written!

Well, this certainly is a sad, sad day for us writers!

74 year old Seamus Heaney has sadly passed away today.

R.I.P & my respects & condolences go out to your surviving family & friends at this difficult time.

It is a safe bet that without him, I would never have stuck at creative writing and become the writer that I am today!

Respect!

MotoGP:Brno - Upsetting the Apple Cart

If you thought qualifying would indicate a rider's fortunes come race day on the Sunday you'd be wrong... dead wrong!

It was a day that saw plenty of twists and turns and eventually one winner that wouldn't have surprised many and would have elated even more as his ever impressive form continued now that the season was well and truly back underway again...

St. Anne's Take Stu - A Day Never To Forget

Phew!

I'm finally back to mine after an energetic and at times quite frantic day out to St. Anne's in Fylde!

Now, to those of you who read my previous post on my visit to the very same place may think 'why the same place, bro'?' - to which I'll tell you what I always tell you... BECAUSE I CAN!!!

Journeying like this to a place as pleasant and peaceful (that wasn't the case today as I'll get onto in due course) is always a welcome change from the humdrum that is life at times as it allows me to just switch off from the things I'm responsible for, for one day and just enjoy myself...

Pooping Out Rainbows

Whassup readers!

A slight change of pace for this one, because it comes at a time where things are really, really starting to look up for me.

First of all, it comes as no surprise that I'm still stoked by 'The Idea' as I've come to term it.

Second of all, you ever get that feeling where everything you touch turns to gold, or that others think you poop out rainbows because you're such a goodie-goodie to them?

You know the feeling, one minute things were looking down and out and instead, now, they are really beginning to click into place for you. Well this is how I feel at the minute & now comes the part where I've got to justify that (well, I don't have to but this blog is my vent) so I will...!

MotoGP:Indianapolis - Full Marc's For Trying!

Ho-lee freakin' smokes!

I was not expecting to have another action packed race as this one to watch, what with the BSB outing at Oulton Park being a firecracker and action-packed to the max!

Was it really too much to be surprised that this one, the first after MotoGP's mid-season break, would be the same...?

BSB:Oulton Park - One Ell' of a Showdown to Come!

Wow!

With the first of the BSB season's triple-headers now out of the way, I'm left exhilerated and excited for the upcoming Showdown and this was the first chance to see who out of the main contenders would be getting their qualification for said Showdown in early, and who would be forced to wait until the last minute...

St. Anne's: Synergy of a Chaotic Life

Whassup bro's!

This entry comes off the back of a day trip to Blackpool to see my sister and her son (my nephew, of course!) on their holidays, before we went on to St. Anne's for the afternoon.

You know it comes as no surprise that it was a fantastic day even though I knew we'd be leaving them behind (because they're staying 'til Saturday before you get any thoughts, HA!) which caused disappointment to rise up within...

What Do You Stand For?

Whassup bro's!

It's been some time since I've asked this, so how's it going for you folks? I hope you're enjoying this 'ere blog of mine, because I'm having so much fun writing it, knowing that my opinions (whilst some dynamite) are maybe, just maybe, causing some of you to think twice about the way you see things.

I hope they are, I really do because that's what I'm here for, I'm here to 'be the signpost', such is my mission statement...

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters

Caution: The following review is intended to provide spoilers so anyone not wishing their enjoyment of this film, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters to be spoilt should come back later to another post in this blog. Thank you. TLP.

Okay, I'm going to start where every good reviewer starts... at the very beginning.

I was originally, as readers of this blog will know, going to be reviewing Despicable Me 2...

The Life Chaotic

Whoa!

You ever have one of those days where everything just seems to fall in place and it reminds you that this is why you do what you do every day (hopefully 'be awesome' is what you should think of when I talk of 'this'!)?#

How about seven of those days?! How about a whole frickin' SEASON?!

That's what I'm talking about for myself at the moment for not only is my business idea gaining strength now as well as momentum (thank God again for this!), also my whole outlook on life has evolved to a completely new level!

It goes like this...

Chaos Theory: The Preliminary...

Whassup folks!

Nope, the title's not what you're probably thinking, it's just a mere statement of fact at the moment that with the sheer business of life in general the joix de vivre that I'm infused with each and every day is now starting to rub off on other people.

I'm gonna reveal more in due course, but that is why there's been no updates of late (well, that and the fact that there are no motorsport events to speak of for another week or two when it's the next round of the BSB), so stay patient folks and I'll update you as and when I can.

It won't be tomorrow (see today as it's already Sunday UK time as I write this!) as I'm gonna be out pretty much all day, at the Limeside Methodist Church playing the music for our "Family Friendly" service. After that it's lunch & dinner at my parents and then I'll be staying over at my parents for the rest of the day until going to Audacious in the evening.

It will not be too long after that, either Monday or Tuesday at the latest, I'll make sure I get on here and get down what's been going down in the life of awesomeness that is... ME!!! :P

Keep it real, bro's & I'll rejoin y'all shortly!
