I Missed My Musing

Hiya Pogue, You may have noticed that I missed Musing this week. I know, Monday was ruined from the get-go! But this morning someone reminded me of a time gone by that set me thinking. You won’t know this but when I was working, there was a time when I would get up on a … Continue reading I Missed My Musing

Monday Musing

Dear Pogue, This Monday I find myself in need of help. Having been away for the best part of a month has allowed me to stand outside of my day-to-day situation. This has been enhanced by being part of an unfamiliar culture which has aided my reflections, giving a varried perspective. Here’s my question. Is … Continue reading Monday Musing

Monday Musing

Monday Musings

Morning Pogue, So I went Christmas shopping and found myself standing in a bookshop which will come as no surprise. Now bookshops in Cambridge are large. Lots of books. Happy days. And where better to muse than in a bookshop surrounded by all that thought. All that latent wisdom whispering, "read me, read me", caressing … Continue reading Monday Musings

Been Reading…

Pogue, There’s a trilogy that’s currently two books deep and there it’s been for some time. Over eight years actually. And there are so many waiting for it to be published because the first two novels were so good. The Name Of The Wind and The Wise Man’s Fears have been read compulsively by many … Continue reading Been Reading…
