RL Wandering: June 2008
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Wednesday, June 18, 2008. Week of Chaos pt.4: Wednesday. I had no cash so slipped away from a tutting cleaner; Helen was less fortunate.), watched the astrological clock thing in action – while hardcore tourists cheered it on – and then went up to the big museum at the top of Wenceslas not-really-Square. In the streets as well – I must check when it’s dark and they are lit. In question, although I think the Nazgul. Not by how strong the...

RL Wandering: Why the streets of Edinburgh are covered in crap
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2009/07/why-streets-of-edinburgh-are-covered-in.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Friday, July 24, 2009. Why the streets of Edinburgh are covered in crap. Once upon a time, men got paid more than women. It seemed normal and natural and, other than a few crazy feminists, nobody took any notice. This changed. Women started taking their employers to court, pointing out that they should get paid the same for doing the same job. Over time, things improved and the gender pay gap. Whose nemesis, the Edinburgh Evening News.

RL Wandering: Dead, dead, dead - someday you'll be dead
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2008/12/dead-dead-dead-someday-youll-be-dead.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. Dead, dead, dead - someday you'll be dead. And apparently there has been a much higher death toll amongst the big names than I had realised. I knew about the big ones like Arthur C Clarke. But I had missed Michael Crichton. Aka Audrey II in Little Shop of Horrors. Who will carry the HHGTTG candle now that the two great powers behind it are gone! Where will the new Mornington Crescent. View my complete profile.

What this blog is about | The Darjeeling Connection
https://darjeelingconnection.wordpress.com/what-this-blog-is-about
My ancestors, in particular my grandfather, George Patrick Robertson, and the connections with Darjeeling. What this blog is about. What this blog is about. Here’s the bare bones of what this blog is about. It starts with my grandfather – who knows where it will end up? On leaving school, George started as an apprentice at Bertram’s Engineering Works at Sciennes, Edinburgh. He eventually got a job running a tea garden near Darjeeling, and set off for India, leaving his fiancée, Allison Robina Robertson (...

RL Wandering: One flounce deletion too far
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2009/10/one-flounce-deletion-too-far.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Tuesday, October 06, 2009. One flounce deletion too far. I awoke this morning to a text message from someone which read Front page of sun, Matt Lucas ex husband hanged himself! Mornin btw. X. And sure enough, there is was. A bit of hunting around found that the Times has the same information. Although presented with less enthusiasm. The BBC even caught up. Tongue-in-cheek) message, "Just your monthly Kevin's-not-dead-is-he? About three ...

RL Wandering: Genius!
http://chrisdonia.blogspot.com/2009/05/genius.html
Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Sunday, May 10, 2009. I feel like I have to rant publicly - a pleasure rant, though. Gluten-free bread is practically an oxymoron. Bread, after all, rises nicely because. I always test any new GF mock-bread products, and Tesco are forever trying out new ideas: naan, pitta (which usually come out quite successfully), bagels, crumpets, 'sub' rolls, ciabatta (good for making crispy garlic bread but golly! This is Genius Gluten Free. Summer...

Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Monday, October 13, 2008. So Tramworks are making Edinburgh tricky to navigate, as is well recorded. At the moment the Mound is closed, with traffic diverted down Market Street/Waverley Bridge, with some people going along East Market Street to get out that end. Something is going to snap.

Because sometimes it's hard to know what's Real Life and what's not. Monday, August 11, 2008. Why I want to eat Cliff Richard. Because his guts are sitting in tupperware tubs in Ollie's fridge and they're made of marzipan! Look, here's the show. And here's the guts. And here's why they're funny:. So go and see it, okay? Links to this post. Why we ate cliff richard. Saturday, August 02, 2008. So Graeme and I went to see Plague! Oh, how sadly mistaken I was. Jim Rose reduced to tacky trickery? I didn't wal...
