September Is Children’s Cancer Awareness Month.

Before reading be aware that this one has language, sadness, disturbing images and subject matter and the occasional angry rant. This still barely touches the tip of the iceberg. I haven’t blogged for a while, there really hasn’t been a lot of inspiration of late. That and I wasn’t sure if anyone wanted to hear […]

Not All Anniversaries Are Too Be Celebrated But Some Still Need A Drink.

Well I haven’t blogged for a while. I guess I got tired of the whinging and whining. So I apologise for doing that. I have about 4 or 5 started blogs. Some a couple of lines, some a couple of paragraphs. But the motivation left the building. This one is a bit about the last […]

Wish Me Luck…. Please!

As I sit here at the computer with a beer in hand, typing slowly because I have a beer in one hand, I’m about to type one of the hardest things I’ve ever written. While meaning it. I’m going to stop drinking! For a while anyway. I have several Facebook and Instagram friends over the […]

The Amazingly Generous People Part Four.

The Overseas Chapter. So many people bag out social media as the most evil of evils but I personally believe that it has destroyed distance and borders on so many levels. Sadly that has helped the bigots and ignorant also share their crap and hate over a much larger area too but it has also […]

Michael (Pickle) Williams

Today my heart hangs heavy. All I have talked about this week is when I was in year 10 at high school. I generally don’t have fond memories of high school. I was one of the invisible. I had minimal trouble with bullies. Someone would need to notice you to pick on you. I was […]

The Amazingly Generous People Part Three.

You know how sometimes you plan to do something and then other things happen so you delay and delay until so many other things happen that you forget? Well I do. In fact, back on 26th January, 2017 I posted a blog called The Amazingly Generous People Part One. Then on 9th April, 2017 I […]

Dear 2019, So Far, Not A Fan!

One day really soon I will try to go back to funny occasionally with my blog instead of just whinging. Well it’s not all doom and gloom but I also think we have had our years worth of crap already and today is only the 2nd of February. For anyone who wants to know how […]

The Comedy Gallery For Meika

Late last year I was approached on Facebook by a lady who heard about my daughter Hayley and her journey with cancer. She saw one of the promos that the Cancer Council Victoria put on their Facebook page, talking about Hayley. This lady’s 9 year old daughter had just been diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma. The same […]

Having A Sook!

Okay, this blog is me having a whinge about a few things. So trigger warnings. If you don’t want to hear about pain, constant pain, painkillers, addiction, depression, debt and a few other cheery subjects then change the channel now. Over 28 years ago I started working in the paint industry. About 20 years ago […]

My Getting Into Shape Update.

The health journey all the way from 15th May, 2016. Sorry about any repeated detail but I’ll try to summarise a bit on the old stuff and get to some points. Back then I was at the heaviest and widest I have ever been before in my life. 96.4kg with a 113cm waist. I started […]
