:: Footprints
People walk in and out of our lives all the time creating footprints as we go. The ebb and flow of life much like the coming and going of the tide begins to wash away the footprints that weren’t trod on solid ground and slowly they disappear from view as we continue upon the path we are a travelling. Not all footprints disappear though, some are created on the right foundations and...
Read More#106 Enter the World Bog Snorkelling Championships
With a bout of tendonitis having killed off my London Marathon dream and the Guinness World Record attempt simultaneously stopped in its infancy I need another outlet to fill the void left by the lack of running relief. The easy option would be to wheel out the bike or hit the cross trainer as a substitute, but life isn’t about easy, life is about crazy dreams! Having assessed my options...

No words needed with this one. Whatever happens keep...
Read More#85 Buy a cow
When I added ‘buy a cow’ to the neverendinglist it was my intention to rock up at the local livestock auction and bid on a young calf. As with most of my ideas in life the logistics weren’t really thought through and after some research it appears that buying a cow is a bit of a minefield for someone with little livestock experience or the facilities to accommodate said cow....
Read More:: I am daddy
Over the last three and half years life has changed a bit! With it my sense of perspective has also changed. The time that has passed since then has been without doubt the most defining period of my life so far and for all the things that have not gone quite as planned, one has been an undoubted success. That is being daddy, a role which I love and wouldn’t change for the world. I’d...
Read More#25 Win a race
The last thing I won was a little slab of white marble adorned with a plastic cricket emblem and a bit of engraved shiny gold effect metal. The prize for nudging a boundary off the pads in the Denbighshire Cup some 27 years ago. I’d love to explain how those runs finished a century innings after hours toiling at the crease, but it would be a story of fantasy. The fact of it was that...
Read More:: I am believer
In a week that saw the passing of Davy Jones it seems fitting to mark his death with a small tribute of my own. No deep or meaningful words here just a duplication of the lyrics that seem to be important to me for some reason! I thought love was only true in fairly tales Meant for someone else but not for me Love was out to get me That’s the way it seemed Disappointment haunted all my...
Read More#8 Dwi’n trio dysgu Cymraeg
That is to say, I am trying to learn Welsh. For one thing I am truly blessed. I was lucky to have the best start in life. My parents gave me something special whether intentional or not. I was made in Wales, I was born in Wales, I was nurtured in Wales and I live in Wales. It’s about time I started conversing in the native tongue. I love being Welsh, with it comes some very special traits….a...

It’s time to cut the crap and put the proceeds towards something positive! It must be the fact that Spring is just around the corner, but I feel the urge to purge and clear out the house of all that is surplus to requirements. Now I appreciate that selling 100 things on ebay isn’t the most challenging item to add to the neverendinglist as part of my script for life, but there is a...
Read More#99 Hold a World Record
It has always been a personal ambition to hold a Guinness World Record and have the certificate hanging on the wall confirming me as a world leader in my chosen field. Sadly my attempt at becoming the World’s shortest man was doomed to failure just after I passed my first birthday and it’s been gnawing away at me ever since (unfortunately not at a fast enough rate to bring my...
