This is what a middle-aged French gentleman said to me when I accidentally scratched his finger on the way out of the elevator at the youth hostel in Vienna. He was more right than he knew. I do have quite strong nails, I love sleeping and lounging around, a dead mouse can keep me entertained […] It’s a heatwave. I haven’t been this hot since the last time I had sex. It’s so hot that raising an eyebrow cause me to break into a hot sweat. I’m writing this from the main station in Salzburg, Austria. I never intended coming here but it’s an interesting story. My plan was to go […] As you are all aware I’ve been working in London for the past two and a bit years.

My apologies to all those scarred by the deafening silence from this end. Nothing was further from my mind than insult […] As you may have heard on the grapevine, or maybe I told you myself, I recently moved house. It was one of the strangest and most horrendous experiences of my life and left me emotionally shattered. Let me begin this tale of suffering and woe by describing the character of my friend Adam. He’s the […] I thought that my three week silence would have provoked an avalanche of lamentations and pleading for more, but no! Instead you’ve all been as quiet as shy church mice.
