    I don’t know what made me look again at the instructions for the piece of work I was about to start this morning, but something did. And I saw a piece of information I’d missed the first time through. An extremely vital piece of information. The sort of information that would have led to not…

    I’ve prattled on a lot in the past about Bali and why I love it – and the people. Possibly, though, the thing I love the most are the offerings. The process of constructing and offering the tributes is not just a belief based ritual, but also a deliberate pause to be fully in the…

      One I prepared earlier… Thou goatish rump-fed strumpet! I was having some fun on Facebook the other day with Shakespearian insults. Lines like the above or this one: Thy lips rot off! Or even: [Thine] face is not worth sunburning. I could amuse myself with these for ages, but would be avoiding the point…

    Settle back children, while I tell you a story… On the edge of the woods in a country far far away stood a village. In the village lived a hunter, his wife and their four sons. The wife was growing their fifth child in her belly, growing bigger by the day. One day, the hunter…

      ‘Because Y is a crooked letter and Z is no better.’ My Poppa used to say this to me when I was very young in answer to any of my ‘but why’ questions. I always accepted the response without further question. But then again, I always thought my Poppa was such a clever man.…

Dealing with it requires common sense, flexibility, clarity and patience. I often tell people to act as if they don’t have a smart phone, or are overseas with the data roaming turned off.
