Posted on July 21, 2018 by Dreamaticus

Posted on June 8, 2018 by Dreamaticus

I joined a family of dog-lover runners. Whenever they came back from the supermarket the sisters ran behind the family car, pulling the dogs alongside them. The only difficulties arose when the sisters accidentally fell out of order (the two … Continue reading →

A flying visit to Nine Mile Burn (Rousse)

Posted on May 28, 2018 by Dreamaticus

JM gave me very little time to consider the sense of his suggestion. ‘Just hold my hand tight, and everything will be fine’ he instructed. Then we jumped the twenty feet from the balcony into the school hall below. JM … Continue reading →

Posted on May 22, 2018 by Dreamaticus

I stabled the grey mare in my new hall of residence bedroom with a degree of reluctance. First I was dubious as to the ‘legality’ of keeping a horse on campus. I also harboured concerns over my skills as a … Continue reading →

Hamleys for the depressed (Rousse)

Posted on May 14, 2018 by Dreamaticus

Bored, lonely and depressed in London, I headed off to Hamleys. On the ground floor I visited the dull Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy exhibition. Then I walked up several flights of stairs with a pair of very overweight American … Continue reading →

A sweary surgeon and a croft for sale in the Outer Hebrides (Rousse)

Posted on May 3, 2018 by Dreamaticus

TPR and I parked out tatty car outside the lodge on RB’s massive estate. He’d paid for all this land and the mansion further up the drive with his earnings as an orthopedic surgeon. As anticipated, RB was not happy … Continue reading →
