Nev 360: Some Changes

http://nev360.blogspot.com/2011/05/some-changes.html

Salt galore, and the open road. Sunday, 1 May 2011. Excuse me for not being so attentive to this blog recently, but big changes are afoot and this blog will soon be getting a gritty reboot, Batman style. All the news now follows (warning: one is a lie):. I also became a semi-uncle just a week ago when my cousin gave birth to a child. Yes, a child. I think a semi-uncle has less responsibilities that a full-uncle, so I can probably get away with just patting it on the head when I see it. Finally, due to wo...

brushwood thicket: June 2012

http://brushwoodthicket.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

Thursday, 7 June 2012. It’s been and gone, but a few thoughts on the Jubilee concert, when the palace facade was transformed into a laser spectacular, the Mall shimmered with the flecks of a thousand lighters, and most of the line-up seemed to be called ‘Sir’. Madness’ ‘gig of the century’ on Buck Pal roof saw the house’s imposing frontage transformed into a dazzling and witty light show - ‘good God, what are they doing to my house? From one point of view it looks like squandering on luxury in a world fu...

Nev 360: Pie On A Mountain

http://nev360.blogspot.com/2011/05/pie-on-mountain.html

Salt galore, and the open road. Sunday, 22 May 2011. Pie On A Mountain. As already mentioned, it's my final job. I bet the Koreans have a proper word for this. Of course, my job wasn't always sunset strolls on the helideck or smooth data acquisition and smiling, helpful drillers sitting side-by-side with company men who became like brothers. Like all jobs, there was a dark side. Yes, I know you might be surprised - "the oil industry has a dark side? Like eating that multifarious pie up a mountain, it mig...

Nev 360: December 2010

http://nev360.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Salt galore, and the open road. Saturday, 25 December 2010. Merry Christmas. from the North Sea. Yes, alas, this year instead of spending the festive period surrounded by the laughter and joy of loved ones, with a roaring log fire and the mess of shiny wrapping paper torn open with excitement, I am adrift in the bitter North Sea, covered in sticky tar-like oil like the excrement flung by a debased Santa’s elf.

Nev 360: August 2010

http://nev360.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

Salt galore, and the open road. Thursday, 26 August 2010. Sleeping In A Bed Of Dead Puppies. Sleeping in a bed of dead puppies. That’s how The Mountie described our situation right now. The precise breakdown of the analogy or metaphor I’m not sure of, but I know it instinctively feels right. These puppies have been dead a few days, there’s a fair bit of mush, and God they stink. Sleeping at night is peculiarly comfortable, but certainly not desirable. But let’s not upset ourselves with vague vision...

Tuesday, 5 October 2010. After two years of relying on Facebook being my sole presence in the online world, I've decided that it was time to branch out again.

Robbio's Blog: November 2008

http://robbio.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, 6 November 2008. It's been a while since I've been able to blog. Suddenly my life has gotten much busier and I've found that I don't have anywhere near the same amount of time as I used to have in order to blog. Not sure how much longer I'll continue to blog, but I just wanted to let you know that I am still alive and haven't completely abandoned this. Thanks for continuing to sticking with me.

Robbio's Blog: February 2008

http://robbio.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, 28 February 2008. Wednesday, 27 February 2008. Well, today my friend who has been helping me learn the Chinese characters is leaving Glasgow. She's moving back to China to get married. So alas, I will have to go it alone now into the vast uncharted wilderness of the Chinese written language. It is easy to get lost and confused there and accidentally write the wrong character, because there are so many that sound alike. Sunday, 24 February 2008. Social Commentary - Gift Wrap. I'm not sure, but a...

Nev 360: October 2010

http://nev360.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

Salt galore, and the open road. Saturday, 30 October 2010. Basil The Bow Wow Does Not Exist. Basil the Bow Wow does not exist. That is the alarming, childhood-undermining discovery of late. Basil the Bow Wow, a cornerstone of my childhood, does not appear anywhere on the internet. Type in his name, in inverted commas, into Google and a total of zero hits are found (I guess the writing of this entry might change that to a single solitary hit). Zero internet hits = non-existence. And as my sister recalled:.
