Is It Just Me…?

IS IT ME… or is a bloke terrific company until that moment when he falls asleep and starts snoring – the moment when all the cooing and wooing in the world would not be sufficient to stop you wanting to put a pillow over his head or sit on his face but not in a […]

Fair to Middling

So, I’m thinking. And I’m in bed. And someone nice is asleep beside me who isn’t thinking. She’s possibly dreaming though. I like her soft sighs; the night’s own tick tock in a quiet room of only digitally displayed hours beside a dormant bedside lamp… Well this is nothing new. I’ve been telling you my […]

“It’s good to talk…” Is it? Really? Since returning, I haven’t yet spoken with anyone on the phone but seem to have had dozens of phone numbers thrown in my direction from people with whom I’ve had no contact. What’s that all about? I don’t want to pick up the phone to someone that I […]

Well… maybe he thinks that because he’s middle […]

Can we ever really just be ourselves?

I love those little unexpected moments that hit from time to time. There I was sitting alone in front of a ridiculously large salt beef on rye (with horseradish and a gherkin obviously!) and a glass of Pimm’s. I had spent the afternoon in the West End and was having a well earned break from […]

Foam, flip flops and fantasies

Just got back from a long weekend in Mallorca. My knees ache from dancing until 5 am every night, I am sunburnt through what’s left of my St. Tropez. and I’m feeling a little bit like the cat that ate the cream… I went out there for a long weekend with one of my dearest friends. […]

Bastian Reloaded

Okay, there comes a point in every Toyman’s life… Remember that? Me sat on a beach almost three years ago pondering the onset of an unfulfilled future, well romantically anyway. And look what went on to happen next; the quest for a third way, a Hamletesque guilt trip over shags I should or should not […]

The Trials of a Dating Daddy

I’m a father. I’m a dater. I’m a pigeon-hole hater! (how very Steve Miller Band!) Some background information:I have a son, who shall be 6 years young on Wednesday (at this age, age is anything but a number -how he and I differ so!!), he’s a glorious human being. His mother and I broke up before […]
