Back in the 70’s, and 80’s I think, Mars used the slogan ‘a Mars a day helps you work, rest and play’ in the UK and some other countries too I believe. It’s become one of the most famous advertising slogans and is still remembered today. Several years after they stopped using it a study…

The Road Less Traveled
The main reason I started blogging a couple of years ago was as an outlet for a lot of difficult to deal with emotions that I couldn’t express to anyone in Second Life. I recognised that I needed to process them somehow and my blog became an outlet. I’m fast approaching the 2 year mark…
Ponder in Bloom – Flickr Group Spammers
My post today is going to include a plea to people who misuse Flickr. I understand why they do it. I even understand what they think they achieve from doing it. The irony is that while on the face of it they may look, at first glance, like they have achieved their goal…they really haven’t….
Magic Tea Time Bliss
I need a good angel. You know the ones that sit on your shoulder and tell you when to behave and shout down the bad devil on the other shoulder egging on you on to do the stupidest things? See the devil, or bad angel, had no competition at the moment it seems. The bad…
Bloom Where we are Planted
I promise I really didn’t plan on having my butt on display two days running but it seems by butt cheeks operate on the same system as London Buses! You don’t see one for ages then 2 of them come along at the same time!! It’s the start of the easter holidays and Spring is…
When the Wind Blows
I went for a walk yesterday during a break at work. Now that may not seem unusual to some but it’s really quite rare for me as I do have a habit of jumping into the car even if it’s a relatively short journey. It’s slightly quicker but if I am honest laziness has been…
Say Hello or Wave Goodbye
It’s a super short post today as I’m heading off with work today for a course. It’s been a long time since I studied for any formal qualifications but this course will be one day a month for a year and the end will provide me with 2 new qualifications to add to the list….
When You Know, You Know
I always plan to do lots of things that I haven’t had time to do whenever I get a few days off work but the truth is I never really get more done that I would have done had I been in my normal routine. I’ve talked before about the notion that time expands to…
B E N T O – Kess Goes Bento!
When Bento heads were first released I went and got the demos for both the Lelutka and Catwa Catya heads. I have always preferred the pre-bento mesh heads from Catwa having had the Jessica head for a long time and switching to Destiny many months ago now. The thing is I was super happy with…
Starlite, Starbright, the star I see tonight
A couple of weeks ago someone I had met recently and asked me to give them a link to my blog as “the link in your profile is wrong”. I gave him the link and he immediately came back and again and said “no, it’s not working. That’s a different blog”. I must admit I…
Beep Beep n Beep Beep Yeah!
There’s been an incident this week of someone passing off, or seemingly attempting to pass off, someone else’s photographs as their own work by re-posting pictures to flickr under their own name. For some reason the people that do this pick on the photographers whose work and style of photography is very easily noticeable and…
Summer Sun Brings a Perfect Place
For the first time in about 5 years I moved to a tropical sandy sim. I’ve had forest/grass sims but I figured a change was as good as a rest and for summer blogging the sandy sim would be much better. It was a good omen as I was excited to hear that I’ve been…
