This is just a quick one, since I’ve been so busy getting ready for my trip. In the lead-up to Christmas I had to send out a series of emails to my team at work, one or two a day for about two weeks. As a bit of fun, I included an original limerick in […]

Mechanical Watches, Man
I have been a watch-wearer for probably fifteen years plus, ever since I was given my first watch as a little kid (I think it was a Christmas present when I was about eight or nine). But from then up until a couple of weeks ago, I was always just a one watch type of […]
Travel Plans
I always thought I’d done a fair amount of travel. My travelling… career (I guess?) started when I was just four, when my parents took my sisters and I caravanning around Australia for an entire year, followed shortly after by two years living in the UK, Ireland and Belgium, and then over the years various […]
This one is, was, and always will be kind of ridiculous. It’s the technical restriction – the end result is like the narrator has language Tourette’s. I ended up keeping it quite short, for the sake of my sanity as much as yours. As a point of interest, I used twelve different languages – Afrikaans, […]

A nice spread, but that technical restriction is going to make things interesting. Title: Tell Me Tomorrow Premise: A lone man wanders through a desert wasteland. He is tired […]
Finally, amiright? It’s only been nine months. There’s not much I can say about this one. I rushed it because I needed the weight off my neck, so I don’t think it turned out as well as it could have. And I’m not convinced I nailed the technical restriction. But it ended up going in […]
I’m Still Here
I debated whether to title this post ‘I’m Still Here’ or ‘I’m Back’, but I haven’t actually been anywhere (yet – more on that in a bit), I’ve just been super busy, so I figured the former was the better choice. It’s been a little over six months since my last post, and those six […]
