There’s been a bit of media fuss recently about the Morrisons food boxes. It’s been hard to get an online shop booked as just about everybody is clamouring for the small amount of slots available, what with the COVID-19 lockdown ongoing. Morrisons came up with an idea – fixed price food boxes filled with staple […]A crisis shows us what’s important
Modern life. We’ve all got a few things wrong – well most of us at least. It takes a crisis like we’re in today to shine a light on these things. We admire the wrong people. So many of us are so used to the modern, western way of life that we’ve lost touch with […]Supporting England’s brewers through the pandemic

I’m not about to go over eveything you’re hearing on a daily basis regarding the coronavirus pandemic, or COVID-19 as it has officially been named. I intended on publishing a post around three weeks ago. Unfortunately, this thing spreads fast, so my information was already out of date a few hours after I’d prepared. We’ve […]Is 2020 the year for new technology?
Whether you’re a tech geek, on the lookout for new technology as it’s announced, or a technophobe, avoiding it unless necessary, you’ll have probably noticed that there’s been a lot of talk over the last few weeks about 2020 being the year for new technology – and technology that is affordable for the everyday working […]An English obsession with chilli sauce
It’s all about endorphins In recent years, the English have developed a taste for chilli sauces. I’m a self confessed chilli head myself – I love a drop of chilli sauce to heat up a meal. There seems to be an English obsession with chilli sauce these days and I’ve wondered what it is about […]
