My friend @tom_kirkham recently got me thinking about Mike Oldfield, which sent me back to this great track from 1979 with its really-rather-weird animated video. Oldfield wrote it in response to his recent experience with the therapy group Exegesis... 1/2 youtube.com/watch?v=c49TTYE5…
I made a new client friend at work today. Client friends are the hardest friends to make. They’re wary of PRs and comms people because we’re always trying to sell them things... tomkirkham.co.uk/home/2023/7… #clients #friends
Approaching a significant life milestone usually necessitates a trip down memory lane. Even though our memories are frequently wrong.

Musings about my fear of work reunions. The musings may be as daft as my fears.

Random musings about the fact that between football and parenting, it seems I’m finally capable of striking up a conversation with the vast majority of the UK population…

I continue to tell myself the same story: that I would do anything for my friends.
However, this omits all manner of caveats and conditions contained in the small print. I would do anything for friends (but I won’t do that). #friendship #stories

My hair seems to have attracted a lot of client attention this week. It is evidently more luminous (and more purple) following my recent hairdressing appointment… #haircare #status

I have been told off on numerous occasions for informing my partner that her plans sound dull. In polite society, being unashamedly honest about what one does and does not want to do is not the done thing.
But what about in a professional context?…

Every week I fail to show up at my local jam night. Will I ever show up? Do I have any choice in the matter?

Over the past 12 months, I’ve developed regrettable habit of failing to finish books.
I’m not surprised this has happened. In today’s culture, finishing has become passé…

Last night a friend reassured me that my house is two streets beyond the fallout zone, should Manchester be hit by a nuclear missile. I don’t know what to do with this . I’m not used to the idea of being afraid… #ukraineinvasion #nuclear
