• Apparently, young women used to almost idolise their high school head boys and many of them go on to name their children after them. I wonder how many little boys in South Africa are called Colin after me 🤣.


    • The new sign for the ladies has been vandalised already 🤣😂 🎃

    • My latest platter for 👸 memorial weekend. I’m getting quite good at these now.

    • I made one of those big platters you see on Pinterest and Instagram for our dinner tonight whilst we watch the Jubilee concert. Pretty chuffed with how it turned out.

    • Wow! I think I’ll get a weekly delivery to offset all the carcinogenic things I consume already to be extra cautious 😂

    • The Mrs and I are starting a new fashion trend: don’t buy new Levi’s, peek-a-boo patch them for a lot less and look way cooler (unless you really like cold knees)

    • How the f*%k does Instagram get their targeted advertising so on point & know what might interest me when I barely use it? I’ve not looked at it for months but today I found myself thinking “That’s so cool, I’ll buy that”… and I use ad & tracker blockers everywhere 😮


    • It’s Sunday evening, it’s not raining, and it’s 8°C… must be time for more BBQ. Should have bought more ribs though 😂 (smoking with maple, hickory and oak 😋)

    • Did proper grown-upping this weekend: started on the DIY to get our flat ready for selling starting with fixing the kitchen tap and replacing the loo seat. Then we went to the pub to celebrate 🤣😂


    • I’m not a religious man, but I’ve always felt an attachment to Desmond Tutu. He fought to free my country 🇿🇦 and I was honoured to meet him. As a fellow cricket fan, he’ll appreciate me saying he’s had a fantastic and influential innings. Well done and thank-you Sir 👏🙇

    • Things are becoming quite profound in Woodley

    • Guess what I can see right now. Sweet bugger all!!! My first blackout in the 20+ plus years I’ve lived in the UK. It’s like being back home in 🇿🇦. I feel home sick now 🤣😂 It’s also quite eery seeing the entire neighbourhood in complete darkness.


    • I was just reminiscing with Mrs S about the food I can remember my father regularly cooking for me, it was “French toast” or as Mrs S knows it “eggy bread”. My sister and I ate it with lemon juice, cinnamon and sugar, whilst my dad ate it with All Gold tomato sauce.


    • I’ve been really impressed with Amazon Prime’s rugby coverage so far this autumn. Proper rugby camera angles, traditional commentary and great graphics. 👏


    • This time yesterday it was light outside. Today it’s dark. This clock changing malarkey still annoys the heck out of me. I really wish the EU directive came into effect this year and the UK followed but it was shelved… and we probably wouldn’t have followed “cos Brexit”.


    • Today’s BBQ-whilst-I-work tasty tasty goodness: beef short ribs 😋
