I received a book in the post this morning - it came to me from America - it cost me nothing. Now that I find strange. Someone printed this book, stored it, then at my email request they sent it by post to me here in Ireland and it was all free to me. Odd.
The [...]

Flexible Thinking
How flexible is my thinking? I have noticed as people around me get older they become less flexible, it is something that I did not notice until it got to a certain level. Perhaps that is what life has in store for all of us who manage to live long enough.

It is fine during the week when she is away, there is always lots of work. So today, a Saturday, I work - it turns everything else off, my mind disappears into the work, work is good [...]
