Boy on Top: April 2006
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Friday, April 28, 2006. I'm the Daddy, get me out of here. I came across the concept of Meme. Who joyfully expounded on her latest of the same theme. My top three, most hole digging, face reddening, eye shutting, get me the hell out of here, things my kids have done. On taking Number One Son into a set of train station loos when he was just learning to speak. We share a cubicle, he goes first, I second. He says in his exuberant, loud voice, Daddy! This situation, whic...

Boy on Top: March 2006

Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Friday, March 31, 2006. Good, Bad, Love, Hate. Early on in life I worked out a simple way to categorise the many things in life you have to do:. 1) There are things you’re very good at that you love. 2) There are things you’re very good at that you hate. 3) There are things you’re awful at that you love. 4) There are things you’re awful at that you hate. One of the funniest and most illuminating I’ve read in a long time. It taught me a phrase I now oft repeat, tha...

Boy on Top: August 2006
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Thursday, August 31, 2006. So, to help him with his fear I’ve had to jettison mine. To let him try it and see if he enjoys it I had to be there beside him. Its been a good exercise for me, and though I can’t say I’ll ever be a roller coaster addict, once out of the trenches its not so bad. I await with pleasure to see. He may, and he may not, but now he knows he can. Posted by The Boy @ 10:50 am. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. With much argument and compromise the plans ...

Boy on Top: Bittersweet
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2011/09/bittersweet.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Monday, September 05, 2011. I'm not quite sure where August went. First it was here, then it was gone. So, a few catch up posts. We start with my holiday in Vancouver. It had a two fold purpose, get the family somewhere fun, and visit my mother. The visit with my mother though, was good, but just a bit sad. For those that have read for a long (long) while I started blogging when my father died. Was a good answer, and one closer to where my sister lives. Its a big step...

Boy on Top: Grief
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006/03/grief.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Monday, March 27, 2006. I'm in a morbid mood. Hearing about my friend K. Has sent my mind on a downward spiral. My father died about two months ago. It was drawn out and nasty after a car accident. Though he wasn't young, I would hope to be as fit and spry as him in my late 70's. Posted by The Boy @ 4:48 pm.

Boy on Top: October 2006
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Monday, October 30, 2006. For all that, it was a good weekend. We were together, the kids where generally happy, which always makes being a parent a happy thing. We ate well, did some stuff together, played some games, had some friends over for lunch, just generally had a good time. My shoulder is still aching though. Anyone know a good osteopath in central London? Posted by The Boy @ 12:56 pm. Friday, October 27, 2006. The Grim Reaper is Me. Its never easy, and never...

Boy on Top: May 2006
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Tuesday, May 30, 2006. Stay at home Dad. I imagine I get a bit boring and repetitive when I say, Oh, a lovely weekend with the family. Thing is, life with kids is slow, repetitive and yes, a touch boring. For all that, its life at a different pace, one where your immediate wants and desires get subjugated, yet with unanticipated rewards. Still, after a weekend like the last, with its meals, child care and outings, does make me wonder. Posted by The Boy @ 9:30 am.

Boy on Top: December 2006
http://boyontop.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Ramblings of the boy inside the man. Friday, December 22, 2006. So, time to break for one of my favourite times of the year. Its only a so so break, as I’ll be working at home, watching over my herd as they work (mostly from home as well) throughout the holiday to meet our deadlines. Still, there is time off, time with family, friends, good food and a chance to kick back, just a bit. Posted by The Boy @ 10:00 am. Thursday, December 21, 2006. Why I Love Radio 4. The today programme wakes me up, challenges...
