Alan's Almanac: Sin
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2015/04/sin.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Friday, 24 April 2015. Now that I have resurrected my blog, I ought to start posting again. Not sure why, but I was reflecting today on sin. And particularly to the way the Anglican Church deals with sin. I do my best every day to be humanitarian, kind and helpful. Sometimes, it is true, I fall short. I have nowhere to go to get forgiveness. Who is the better person? 4 October 2015 at 19:28. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Alan's Almanac: Summer is slipping by
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2012/08/summer-is-slipping-by.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Sunday, 26 August 2012. Summer is slipping by. It has been a long time since I delivered a post. During that time summer briefly arrived and then went. And I have been busy. Somehow the time has slipped by. Work is getting busier and more stressful. I try to use my time off properly but find myself increasingly tired and just needing to relax quietly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Clock WET:Western Europe Time(GMT 00:00).

Alan's Almanac: Back in Spain
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2013/06/back-in-spain.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Friday, 28 June 2013. Yes here we are back in our house in Andalucia for 3 weeks just relaxing after my retirement which kicked in at the end of May. Time now to rebalance my life. In the meantime we are enjoying the sunshine, conversation with our new friends and exploring new towns and new restaurants. Last week we spent a few days near Tarifa and had an enjoyable day at Cape Trafalgar, where the famous battle took place. Well I...

Alan's Almanac: New Year
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2014/01/new-year.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Friday, 3 January 2014. So we welcome 2014. My first thought is to look backwards - 100 years in fact. Did those who welcomed in 1914 have any idea what was about to be unleashed upon the world? Did they thing that something that happened in Sarajevo would embroil the world in a four-year war? And remember - 'As you walk and eat and travel, be where you are; otherwise you may miss most of your life'. Hi there, Im Lindsey! A relati...

Alan's Almanac: Goodbye, Dad
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2013/06/goodbye-dad.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Wednesday, 12 June 2013. It has been such a busy few months, that I have not had time to properly reflect on my Dad's passing. In February, just after I had taken the decision to retire but when I was still snowed under with work, I got a call from Dr Gray's Hospital in Elgin to say that my Dad had been admitted and was in a serious condition. He was in a 'do not resuscitate' regime. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Homeopathy ...

Alan's Almanac: Looking back / Looking forward
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2013/06/looking-back-looking-forward.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Saturday, 8 June 2013. Looking back / Looking forward. So at the end of my first week of retirement, how do I feel? Truth to tell, it is a strange mixture of excitement and apprehension. On the first day of retirement, I played 6 sets of tennis for Hertford and, after hurting my leg early on, can now hardly walk. Not a great start. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Clock WET:Western Europe Time(GMT 00:00). Music - Leonard Cohen.

Alan's Almanac: Regrets of the Dying
http://alansalmanac.blogspot.com/2012/05/regrets-of-dying.html
My thoughts and musings about life in general - and my life in particular. Thursday, 3 May 2012. Regrets of the Dying. 1 I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me. 2 I wish I hadn't worked so hard. 3 I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings. 4 I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends. Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had bec...
