I love being a FreemasonI was initiated on the 7th of October 2021 and I love it. It really is a very positive organisation and I will be a better man for joining. This song sums up its spirit. It makes me want to buy a masonic ring. (1)
I Am Now a FreemasonI was initiated into a Masonic lodge under the United Grand Lodge of England last Thursday. It was an exciting and unique experience which I will never forget. I am still processing it all and trying to understand the ceremony I went through. I am... See More »
I Want to Join the FreemasonsI am hoping to join the Freemasons in September. I would have already had it not been for the pandemic. In this video, Benjamin Franklin (or rather an actor playing him) explains what Freemasonry is all about. It makes me want to join even more! (1)

Two Years at Slimming WorldIt is the early hours of Saturday morning here (yes, I am a bit of a night owl). I just realised that it is exactly two years ago today that I joined Slimming World. Where did all the time go? It's been quite a successful two years on the whole.... See More »
I Am Still Losing WeightYes, I now look very different to how I looked in August 2018. Six stone lighter! I look young, despite turning 40 last week, and I feel a lot healthier and much more energetic. I no longer look overweight and people who didn't know me before are... See More »
I Love KfcI used to like KFC. My grandmother and I often treated ourselves to some. I don't really eat it now though, because it doesn't aid my weight loss goals. Maybe once in a while, I could have some as a treat, but it would have to be only once in a... See More »

I Want to and Need to Lose Weight.I deleted my previous post on this subject because it was too negative, as a few people had pointed out. I won't be reading any more negative websites which insult fatties like me so harshly. I still think that being overweight should be considered... See More »
I Remember September 11th 2001It doesn't seem like almost seventeen long years since that awful day. September 11th 2001 changed the world forever. On the day it happened, I had just moved into a student house for my final year at university. I was only 21 at the time. I was... See More » (2)
I Remember the Oj Simpson VerdictI remember it well. It was a very bad day for the American criminal justice system. How anyone could possibly think there was any doubt as to his guilt is beyond me. It couldn't be more obvious.
I Like Cold WeatherI might be a little odd, but I personally am not a fan of summer and summer weather. In fact, unless someone is swimming in a nice cool swimming pool or laying on a beach, I honestly don't know how anyone can enjoy boiling hot weather. It makes me... See More »
Why Capitalise Every Word?Sometimes when reading comments I notice that some people capitalise the first letter of every word in a sentence. The Result Is That Everything They Write Looks Like This. I can understand people not using capital letters at all, because they... See More »
