The Stag

Administrator — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 11:32:09 +0000

Recently, on a trip to the infamous Pinewood studios, home of James Bond, I decided to take a wander in the middle of the night; I was staying in a cottage a mile away from the studios, a cottage which backed out onto fields. No sooner had I been exploring than a bizarre sound rang out across the field: a werewolf! I thought. It’s my lucky day! I’ve always loved werewolf films and never really believed I’d actually see one in the flesh, until I looked to my right, across the field, and saw–

–A stag. OK, not nearly as impressive as the legendary creature of myth and folk-lore, but not far off either. The stag was watching me from the hill at the back of the field; enormous antlers, growling in my direction, full of contempt for my wandering onto its land. So what did I do? I went and got my camera, of course. I was to stalk it! Too many times before had I missed out on the opportunity of photographing such a splendid creature. I set off across the field in chase of it, keeping my eye on its knobbly knee-caps just in case it came hurtling my way. Then it vanished. Oh no! I cried out (actually more of a whisper I didn’t want to scare the Stag man), it’s all over!

Dissapointed and enveloped by a wave of sadness not felt since our budgie Bluebell fell off her perch, legs stiff in the air, I continued on up the hill regardless. That was when things improved; suddenly excitement of epic magnitude came, all at once!

On top of the hill I heard a familiar growl, this time at close range; the stag was nowhere to be seen, but my stag-dar told me it had to be close–

–.That was when I saw them. The stag and its mate—a smaller female with a look in her eyes that said: Get him! Get the stupid intruder!

I ended up bolting back down the hill with my heart in my mouth and my testicles in my chest, looking over my shoulder, awaiting the piercing of sharp antlers in my buttocks. But it was worth the risk. I survived to tell the tale, and I have a shaky photo to prove it too!

And now for an update on work for you all to critique, I have finally finished all the copy for the laser tattoo removal sheffield webpage. I am a little conflicted how I feel about this one, any observations or judgements are encouraged

My eHow Hobby

Administrator — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 11:34:10 +0000

When I first started my career in Internet writing, the last thing I wanted to do at the end of the day was write another article. Instead, I preferred to relax watching T.V. or playing a video game. But all that changed after I discovered eHow. Through this wondrous site, I got a chance to embark on a rather unusual activity– paid hobby-writing.

How does paid hobby-writing work? Basically, I’m allowed to write on any topic I want, just as long as it’s in eHow’s proprietary How-To format. And, if the article generates revenue from ad clicks, I get a share of the profits.

In the beginning my hobby only returned a couple of cents every day. It almost didn’t seem worth the trouble. Yet, after seeing all the success stories, where people no different than me were earning full-time incomes, I decided I needed to write more. So, I buckled down, organized my time a little better and promised myself I would write 5 articles a day.

For the most part I have made good on that promise, as I now have over 150 eHows to my name. Money-wise, my income isn’t where I would like it to be, (as I’m only making $7 to $9 a day). But, unlike any other hobby I’ve done, I get paid to write about anything I dream of, ranging from coupon-clipping, how to buy cosmetics online to lucid dreaming. And, thanks to eHow’s unique format, any articles I write will continue to earn income, whether it’s been 1 year, 5 years or even 20 years!

That’s right– eHow is a site where you can earn residual income. This is when you get money on work you performed once. Nothing else is required, as eHow works completely on your terms. If you only want to submit 100 articles, then that’s your prerogative. You’ll still earn money each time your articles generate revenue.

Of course, if you want to maximize eHow’s potential, it’s best that you submit as many articles as you can relatively quickly, and you make sure you think about search engine optimisation techniques when writing the article titles. And this is exactly what I’m trying to do. I won’t even think about quitting my eHow hobby until my account shows that I have 5,000 articles. And even then, I may still consider writing because I enjoy the process so much.

In conclusion, eHow is one site that has completely changed my life. Not only has it given me worthwhile goals, but it has also allowed me to, (for the first time), make money on my own terms.

My friend ganesh

Administrator — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 11:47:50 +0000

A friend of mine works for Public Relations UK, a specialist beauty agency. He’s a very old friend of mine; we went to school together and shared one of my life changing experiences. When we were sixteen years old, we went backpacking in Cornwall together and it was my first real taste of true freedom. We wondered where we wanted to go, made our plans spontaneously, and rested our heads where ever we were when night came. It was amazing, and it gave me much of the confidence I hold as a person today.

However, since joining this PR Company, he has become more and more image conscious. We never cared what we did or how we looked, and of course that does change as you move into adult hood, however the extent to which it has happened is shocking me slightly.
Of course it is important to look presentable, especially in the work place. Someone who looks like they are doing good job is more likely to gain the respect from his colleagues and employers than someone who is working really efficiently but appears to be a big disorganised mess. My friend is taking it too far for me though. I was round his house to visit, and found him searching for ‘weight loss surgery uk’ on his computer. When I asked him about it he admitted that he has decided that he wants to have Chest Reduction surgery. What?! Chest reduction surgery? I tried talking him out of it, but he is convinced that he is too large and that he needs to loose weight. Worse than that, he is currently become unhappy as a person because of his weight. This guy has never had a weight problem, not really. Okay so he’s not the smallest of men, but he’s not fat or overweight at all.

The thing that upsets me was realising that working at this PR place has made him into an unhappy person. Before going there he was pleased with who he was and how he looked. Now he is very subtly miserable.
I am going to support him with his drive to have this surgery done. Why? Because he will be happier once he is smaller. The thing I can’t help but remembering is that the only reason he needs it, is because someone convinced him that he needs it. If he’d never thought about it in the first place, he would have been perfectly happy as he was.

No Award Show – But See Those British Globes Shine!

Administrator — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 22:23:33 +0000

How sad that the Brits were unable to bask in the glory of such a great night for British acting talent. The cancelation of the Golden Globe awards show meant that there was none of the usual fuss and glamour of red carpet chitchat and flustered acceptance speeches, but also that the actors were unable to shine in the spotlight of recognition of their work. For the British who work especially hard for recognition amongst the established American stars, and who get a chance to be shown on our British TV as standing side-by-side with old Hollywood. Whilst I believe everyone has a right to strike for what they believe to be better working conditions, I can’t help but feel that there are some things that ought to have been left alone – such as the awards ceremonies. These aren’t about making money, these are about giving recognition where it’s due. It’s way too bad that in a year when we did so well, the Globes were shadowed by the writers, who if they are successful in their efforts will actually benefit financially from the movies that are getting such acclaim at these awards. I think the only plus side to it was not having to look at the botox and liposuction administered body of the less than sharp Paris Hilton. Let’s hope that when the Oscars come about there’s at least some form of professional decency and they are allowed to go ahead on schedule. As for last night’s Golden Globes –..Go Brits! Well done!

Will the McCann’s Be Re-Interviewed?

Administrator — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 15:39:52 +0000

According to Sky.Com news Portuguese police want to re-interview Gerry and Kate McCann and their sources say that an application is being prepared that will seek permission from the Home Secretary to allow them to do so. Apparently now they are back in the UK, our laws protect them from answering questions that could prove them innocent –.Or guilty. Whilst there seems little point in the Portuguese police re-interviewing the McCann’s friends who have had plenty of time to get their stories “straight”, current events that are meant to reassert their innocence such as taking drug tests months after their little girl disappeared to prove they have medication in their or their children’s system is a bit late, and Gerry McCann’s claim of a possible stalker he’s just recalled seeing (like you see a possible stalker and leave your children alone?), seem to me to be fuel to the contrary. Methinks the couple doth protesteth their innocence too much in the light of increasing condemning evidence.

Pride of England

Administrator — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 09:49:07 +0000

The rugby world cup has ended with England loosing out in the final to South Africa. Nine points was all that separated the two sides and in the end the South Africans, the stronger side deserved their win. They played magnificently throughout the tournament. All observers of the game whichever side they supported could quite clearly say that the Antipodeons were worthy victors of the Web Ellis Cup.

However, England should also look back with pride. Unlike the national football team, the rugby side never capitulated after the loss in the first match in the group stages to the South Africans as well. Since that match they have responded magnificently taking on the world cup with a gusto and perseverance that shocked the rest of the partakers of this competition. England before the tournament were written off as a weak side past their prime and after that first match, anyone who had said that they would reach the final would have been scoffed at. But it shows a remarkable amount of faith in the strength of character of the England squad that they never once looked for an easy way out nor did they look for excuses. Instead they worked together as a team. They proved to the world their strength of character and refused to give in until the final whistle. And for some reason they are paid an awful lot less than the football side. On a positive note.Dave has completely redesigned the laser hair removal part

The lucky little journey of Belgium

Administrator — Sat, 20 Oct 2007 19:30:09 +0000

Belgium. What a lucky, little country. Four months after a General Election, the politicians still have not managed to construct a working coalition between themselves in which to rule the country. The wrangling between the Dutch speaking north and the French speaking south has left a political divide so great, that no amount of political skulduggery can break the deadlock between the elected parties. And so, for now, the political life of Belgium is non-existent.

Has this instability plunged the country into turmoil? Has this unbridgeable divide made Belgium a candidate ripe for division? Are their riots on the streets? Is the economy in ruins? Is there a crisis in the middle of Europe!

Oh, they do not realise how lucky they are. No need to see their faces on the television spouting their lies. No need for unnecessary little laws in order to justify their posts. There is just simply no need for them anymore.

If only countries around the world could realise the secret that the Belgians’ have been keeping to themselves over the past few months. Finally we seem to be progressing with the site.Grahame has completely re-designed the cyst removal part

The end of Analogue TV

Administrator — Sat, 20 Oct 2007 18:38:43 +0000

In Mid October, the town of Whitehaven on the Cumbrian coast became the first place in Britain to stop receiving analogue television signals. The switchover to Digital TV is underway and nothing can stop its eventual sweep across the country as one by one, all those aerials above the televisions will be rendered useless.

And goodbye to all of it. As far as I am concerned, most TV is tripe. It is called the ‘Idiot Box’ for a reason. Slouched in front of the sofa, brain dead and hypnotised in front of the screen. Well, when the switchover comes around to London, I won’t bother buying a set-top box and I will save on the cost of my TV licence. The biggest waste of time will finally be consigned to history as millions like myself without digital reception will wise up and realise that there is more to life than flickering images from a screen.

Now, I saw this funny video on YouTube the other day… Things seem good on the work front.Andrea has completely redesigned the botulinum toxin clinic pages

Paris is going to jail, yey!

Administrator — Thu, 10 May 2007 15:47:52 +0000

Paris Hilton has been sent jail for 45 days in LA for violating her probation. Well hopefully, please God. Her sentence should begin on the 5th of June, and the judge tried his best to make sure she wouldn't be allowed on work release, use of an alteranitve jail, or electronic monitoring instead of jail.

Seconds before the judge gave the decision, Paris was weeping and said: "I'm Sorry, Really I'm Sorry." The judge called out her rep Elliot Mintz in court, calling his testimony as "completely worthless." He also informed miss Hilton that he didn't believe that she was unaware of her license suspension, adding that she had paperwork in her car stating that her license was suspended.

That was as pathetic as expected from Paris! And that judge is a major hero! I had always dream of this moment seeing Paris finally get punished for her ways instead of congratulated in public, is like a dream for me! I can die happy now, I just love the idea that there are some rules to her life, never having to work.

The bit I like best is soon, she will be a Ex con porn star. How much lower can you go!!

Kate Moss might not be using drugs

Administrator — Sun, 06 May 2007 16:35:42 +0000

Kate Moss was spotted leaving London restaurant China Tang at 9:30pm, but when she arrived home at midnight she had some white powder spots on her clothes. But that could be anything, right? I mean, who doesn’t play with powder when they go out these days? And you know how playing with powder can make you a little woozy– And there’s some powder that ‘accidentally’ slips in your nose, and it smells pretty! I’m not jumping to any conclusions here! I would never suspect Kate Moss of doing drugs until I am presented valid evidence! I mean if I was famous and intelligent like Kate, I would never touch anything such as drugs! And I trust her better judgement! But what kind of powder is that? Is it now a trend? Is playing with powder the new thing these days? What did she do? Does she juggle bags of baking powder? Or is it nose powder? I need to know, because if someone I admire as much as Kate Moss does it, I definitely want to do it too!
