Welcome, I am sat at the hotel pool bar in Salou, in Spain or perhaps Catalonia. Everyone is doing what they want to do, Wife, two daughters, one partner, three granddaughters, one grandson. So Descartes read and Russell (Bertrand not Brand) I have wandered into the blog sphere.

Controversy may abound and cynicism will no doubt be the order of the day but to get my thoughts to a wider audience it may be worth the effort. Much insight comes from the odd rant that is then forgotten.

Me; Born in 1956 horrified that everyone seems to think that makes me old and therefore dangerously close to ignorable. Bald I may be and a couple of teeth short but that is it. My wit, intellect and humour are unaffected, OK I am not going to do a marathon but then I wouldn’t have at 20 I would have found a better use for 5 hours.

This blog will hopefully allow me to rant when needed or simply observe over the staggeringly obvious that we all miss and the clearly bizarre that I can compare to over the last 60 odd years.

My Father would have relished this opportunity to get his ideas abroad he had to settle for the local newspaper and syndication how far technology has moved on,

OK I have just seen that the local “Animacion” are spraying foam over unsuspecting youngsters with parents with mobile phones recording the event another technological advance however I am not sure where that takes us.

I really can not see why anyone would get excited because a foam machine has covered them in foam.. Surely it is just like standing under a shower head and turning it on.. you get wet.

But they all seem happy as am I.

As first blogs go this may be middling but then perhaps it should be.

Happy blog reading
