It was a dark and stormy night ….
Before I finally awoke at four a.m., I had already made one trip to the bathroom. Returning to bed, I looked in on my desk to see what time it was. I glanced out of the window. The rain was lashing down and the wind was howling in gusts. There before my eyes I saw four hooded figures standing at the corners of a large pyre of wood waiting to be ignited. Their cloaks swirled in the wind. My mind…

Planet Rowland!
I often wake in the morning feeling more tired than when I went to bed when Lesley, will ask ‘How was life on Planet Rowland last night?’ a reference to the complex and exhausting dreams I experience. This was Monday night’s adventure! I was teaching a class of students where we were discussing the importance of innovative packaging in ‘fast moving consumer goods’. ‘I’m going to get some…

On Wednesday, my friend Wido gave me the opportunity for an irresistible piece of word play. He sent me an email, from Holland saying: ‘Is Johnson still ruling the waves?’ ‘No, he’s waiving the rules!’ I replied with unsurpresssed delight!

Quote of the day
After he’d signed up to join the tank regiment, Peter Ustinov was asked why he chosen that one. He replied ‘well, if I must go to war, I’d rather do it sitting down…..’ Wonderful!

What year is it?
So we appear to be ‘enjoying’ the 2020 Olympics. Is this simply because they had the posters and signage done? I think it would have been very cool and 21st-century if they had simply send around a bunch of people with Sharpies and spray cans to alter the signs!
