Mihamon Management
Hello there H, You asked for some money advice. Let’s be clear I am no financial advisor. I am barely financially literate. It’s true however that I put my beloved R to sleep at night regaling her with my financial equivalent of a shortsighted Don Quixote attacking windmills …
more...Not Running
It has been almost a week since I had a run. I have had a busy week of work and home renovations, and I know that is an excuse. I will go for a run in about an hour. I’m dropping the boy off at a birthday party this …
more...Bloods
Blood is amazing stuff, there is no end to it’s uses. The blood of pigs is the source for black pudding which is delightful. Milk is mostly blood, it’s just more convenient to suck it from a teat than stabbing your cow in the neck Maasai warrior style …

I was running around Coffs Harbour listening to Annie Lennox speak on an old Desert Island Disc programme yesterday. She talked about how music becomes an intrinsic part of the listener, or words to that effect. In fact she pointed out that words could not suffice to explain the depth …

Toast is banned at work due to the smoke alarms that call the fire brigade everytime toast is burnt which …
more...I Say, I Say
“Toby, Toby! Here boy!” called my dog, Alfie. It was time for our walk. I ran in from the backyard where I had been digging up weeds. Alfie and I walked to the park. Peeing amongst some weeds along the way Alfie commented on the weather. I was distracted as …
more...Little Dawn
I recieved a call from my boss yesterday. Who my mother rudely described as, “mouthy”. I asked what she meant by that and she said they, “sounded like they would not use one word where many would suffice”. Indeed.
I might use the expression, “Wordy” but probably not. My mother …
more...Again again
| Here I am starting again with another fresh blog. | My aims for this thing have changed once again. Now I’m using Nikola, a python based static site generator. It’s a bit more complex than I really wanted but I’m less inclined to build my own scripts these …
