Movements in the World and in the Mind
I don't believe in biblical prophecies, but with all the terror events (reported on) in this world, it seems the End Times have come. June, the month that is to bring us summer, was a tough one with the passing of Muhammed Ali, terror attacks around the world and a Brexit vote that took everyone, friend... Continue Reading →
Today is Liberation Day in the country of my birth. I remember it as one of my favourite feast days. People celebrate their freedom living in a so-called democratic country with all sorts of activities and there always used to be a festival-feel in the air. I also remember that the weather was always good, just... Continue Reading →
Today is the beginning of a new month and also May Day or Labour Day. They seem to be different institutions, but might as well be one and the same. In Lowlands Country, the region of my birth, Labour Day is not a public holiday and therefore not celebrated as such. I remember the event... Continue Reading →
After a pleasant winter and some very mild days at the end of February it seemed that spring hat arrived on the Rock and it was here to stay. In Lowlands Country language we have an expression that literally translates as: March wags its tail. It means as much as: although‘officially’ the weather should improve... Continue Reading →
The year 2015 is two weeks old and France, Europe and the wider world of free speech have already witnessed the atrocity of the decade. France has received the dubious honour of having her own 9/11 (US), 7/7 (UK) or 11/3 (Spain), as two or three gunmen entered the premises of satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo... Continue Reading →

The question posed on the ballot paper is a simple one: “Should Scotland be an independent country?” The answer to that question is more straightforward... Continue Reading →
It has been a year since I made my Malta Move and as good and exciting as it felt in the beginning the better and the more exciting it is now. I´ve managed to provide myself with a better quality of life and I believe that is quite a present to give oneself. My money... Continue Reading →
Only a week and a bit ago, all I had on my mind was footie, but a looming deadline for a gig and some peculiar actions in the Middle East made me refocus. Since a few weeks an entity called ISIS, which allegedly is a militant islamist organisation, seemingly having appeared out of nowhere, has... Continue Reading →
There used to be a time when I loved trashy magazines. Those with all the celebrity gossip; who lost half their body weight, who gained it, who is divorcing who and who is considered the best and worst dressed at such-and-such event. I was fully aware it was all bollocks, it was just my form... Continue Reading →
The start of a new month is a new reason to celebrate as today, 1 May, is a public holiday in many countries. Across nations 1 May is known and celebrated as Labour Day or International Worker’s Day. Some countries in the Northern hemisphere with strong connections to their pagan roots celebrate 1 May as... Continue Reading →
