If
IF you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and...

We Were Robbed
Afternoon all, this post comes to you just as I’m about to grab some lunch and then head to do more work.
I can do nothing but reflect on the heart break of yesterday’s game at Manchester City. I thought we were amazing for most of the game and the response to going 2-0 down in a matter of minutes was fantastic, Gareth Bale produced a goal that has to be a contender for goal of the...

Bye Bye Facebook
This week I finally snapped and did the unthinkable, well the unthinkable to some people, I deleted my Facebook account. It wasn’t a rash decision, I hadn’t been on my profile much since the New Year and I found that not being on it wasn’t that big a deal, and made me realize just how much time I had been wasting on it.
To be honest, i’d grown tired of everything about the...

Senna & God
“When you have God on your side, everything becomes clear” (Ayrton Senna)
I attended a church service last night and the topic of the sermon was dispelling the myth that faith and work don’t mix, and it seems like no coincidence that I came across an article this evening on Ayrton Senna and how his faith in God stretched into every aspect of his life. (The article can be read...

Dave Is In Some Hot Left Wing Stook
So Prime Minister David Cameron today found himself on the end of some harsh criticism from the opposition after he told a female Labour MP in the House Of Commons to “calm down dear”. Is it such a big deal? Or, are Labour still living in a delusional world where they feel they have a right to be pissed off about not being in power after 13 years of cock up after cock up, and...
Miracles For Sale
No doubt my post will be among the thousands of posts being uploaded by bloggers in relation to Derren Brown’s show on channel 4 tonight “Miracles For Sale”. But to come at it from a different angle i’d like like to look at the reasons why Derren Brown wanted to make this particular show.
When Brown was asked by a journalist how he came to be aware of faith healing he...
