The other day I tried something that I have never tried before in an effort to eat healthier…I tried having oatmeal breakfast waffles! While some breakfast waffles can be far from healthy the ones I had were pretty healthy and very tasty so it got me wondering how many other recipes there are for healthy waffles and the answer even …
We all have our goals in life. And one of mine is to one day own a house and garden big enough to have my very own swimming pool in. Sure it is a big goal to have, but if I work hard enough and save long enough maybe I will get there. But it seems some people can’t be …
Sometimes I will make these top 10’s by things that have inspired me throughout the day, sometimes I make a top 10 because I find an amazing image and sometimes I make them because other people’s blogs and social media posts inspired me. This top 10 is not any of those, it is made because I thought it might make …
Now and again I like to bring something a little more unusual to the table for us all to take a look at and this is one of those posts. It is all about the art of Makankosappo. It literally “Magic Penetrating Killing Ray” and is basically an Internet meme which started with Japanese schoolgirls photographing themselves apparently using, and being affected …
Having been raised by television, it is always hard to ask a child to realise it is not real. Yes! Believe it or not, the world of TV shows are all smoke and mirrors. And still till this day I will never forget seeing Doctor Who gets filmed near to where I was living at the time because I saw …
If you have been watching any episodes from the TV series “Game of Thrones,” you are most probably just like me and already hooked. So I have decided to make this top 10 for all us fans of the show that will be expecting some Christmas or birthday Thrones themed merchandise. These are not just any gift ideas they are…
We all enjoy a little flutter, maybe it is down the local bookies or maybe one of the big online casinos like Ladbrokes. But it seems us humans are not the only ones! All over the World (normally on Caturdays) our feline friends are having a little gamble and taking a little risk with their cat food money. Let us keep …
Normally on Fridays, I post some unhealthy looking cakes or treats that everyone loves the look of, but no-one really wants on these hot summer days. So it is time for a change and for a while (unless everyone hates them) I will be posting some lighter, healthier and altogether cooler summer foods. Today we will be taking a look …
While I was at a friend’s house the other day we got talking about upcycling and the creative and amazing things people recycle things into. It seems that with each passing year more and more amazing and more useful things are created. It was while looking at these sorts of images that my friend asked me what I thought she …
Yes, it is childish but I like hanging out with my friends. We talk rubbish, play a video game and are always challenging each other to do more and more stupid things. And it was one of those stupid things that this post is inspired from. You see a friend (names removed to protect the stupid) challenged another friend to …
You know you are “getting on a bit” when you start to notice how far technology has come since you were a child. And for me, one thing that I have noticed more than anything else changing is computer memory! Nowadays it is all cloud data that, terabyte this and when I was a teenager I had to make do with cassette tapes …
Today I am the unhappy owner of a bruised knee. I got it because while out walking the dog and I tripped over some hidden barbed wire and had a soft landing on my knee. But don’t worry, it really isn’t all that bad at all, but I did have to wonder if there was a better use of barbed …
You know it, I know it, everyone knows it! I am a nerd, and so I have been thinking about how much I used to enjoy watching the next episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation or even the older original series. It felt like I belonged to something, something special. So now that I am a fair bit older …
The other day I was walking down my street and saw a tabby cat walking towards me, instinctively I bend down to stroke it when I heard the cat’s owner (who was out in the front garden) telling me to be careful because their cat has a habit of biting! But strangely after a bit of research, I found out …
Today I saw something I had not seen in a while…a Topps Push Pop! These push-up candy sweets were a firm favourite of mine growing up and I really enjoyed that taste of nostalgia. After looking online to where I might get more of the candy push-ups, I found a new fad of cake making that seems to be inspired by that …
The various post I have done has featured all sorts of things that have been shaped to look like the classic Volkswagen Microbus or camper van. Because it seems that when people own the real thing they love them so much and are willing buy all sorts of strange gift ideas and objects that are just like their favourite Kombi’s. These …
