man cave

I have kept one of my dreams alive, that is to have a man cave of my own. A man cave is a room that is used to host grown up toys and hobbies such as a pool table and a games table. My man cave would have a bar inside it with self-serving units such as small fridges on a counter. It would have a table tennis table, pool table, retro arcade machine, every mainstream games console, comfy recliner chairs, a very large screen, card game table for black jack and poker and an air hockey table. The room would be decorated and have fake windows that show the appearance of a beach outside. The man cave would have a second room attached to it for housing machines for building things.

Bad road and Phone

My phone is in a very bad way. It barely works at all now so I hope to get a new phone fairly soon.

Another thing that is bad is the road layout where I live. There is a road near me called vaughn road (I think is it spelt differently), Anyway the road is not a one way road and it is very thin and there are very few places to pull over. I have seen cars getting stuck on that road and think that it needs to be changed to a one way street or a coldersack. Hopefullly Harrow council will do something about it and I am hopefull that my phone does not get any worse than it is. I often woner why there isn't a raised platform for cyclists to ride their bikes on above the roads but that is a different issue.

I am greatful for my imagination thoughts because it is a wonderful thing.

Good times

When I was a young boy I remember getting a Hornby train set from my parents. I loved to play with it, the train was an Intercity. It looked accurate and it even made the "clackerdy clack" sound that trains make when it rolled across the tracks. It was electric powered and controlled by a gradient switch. It also had two lights on the front. I think that part of the joy of keeping toy trains is building the scenery for the train to travel through. Earlier in the week I saw on the news a man that built a one screen cinema in his back yard, that is very impressive. The projector was taken from a real cinema that closed down along with many other things inside. I was impressed that this man took his hobby to the next level.

I am grateful for such interesting news and good memories from childhood.

London aquarium

Yesterday I took my wife with me to the London aquarium. I wish they charged less, but what can I do? I used the opportunity to collect footage of fish for my movie about the earth and it's wonders.

One thing I noticed is the music changed my mood. I went from being annoyed about the price to very relaxed and cheerful. I would describe the music as having the power to change your mood and make you feel relaxed and happy.  I would like to find something similar to that music so that I stop getting angry about random things in my life. I managed to collect about 10 minutes of footage of aquatic life before my battery went flat. The earth is awesome on so many levels. 

I will go to some free music websites and build up a playlist of music that is similar to the aquarium music.

I am grateful for music because there is music present that can completely change your state of mind and make you feel happy and for the Earth and all its wonders.

disembodied voice

I believe that most people that are reading this blog are reading the blog of a man that is no longer alive, I think this because life is short and this blog can stay around for a long time, perhaps for millions of years. If the creator has not restored my soul then this is one of the few things that are left of me, a simplified expression of my thoughts. The paradox is that although I am distant from you I am also closer to you than the air that you breathe because I am touching your mind, the deepest part of your being with my words. I feel humbled by that thought because I believe that every generation is slightly more intelligent then the previous one and perhaps the person reading this blog has a brilliant mind. 

Anyway. Yesterday I said I would get a tin to save coins for a gadget that I want to buy. I got the coin tin but I changed my mind about the gadget. I think it is more important to get a new phone first. My contract finishes in the summer and my phone is worn down a lot. The battery stores less power and the memory is too low for the new OS system of android and I don't want to pay for the handset with the new contract because the handsets on offer are all mainstream brands and are very expensive. I would prefer get a sim only contract and buy a cheap but adequate phone separately.

One thing I don't understand is why people that hate a religion are called racists. I don't hate any religions but if a guy hates a religion then it is a theology that they are against and not the people that believe it. I think part of my society would brand me a racist person because I voted to leave the EU. The reason I voted to leave the EU in the referendum had nothing to do with immigration, my personal reason was because I felt that the EU makes it easy for large corporations to avoid national taxes and leave the burden of the taxes with everyone else.  There were other reasons also but non of them were because of immigrants. Somehow I feel better writing this down because I live in a society that does not listen to people. My community is too judgemental. They look at people then they categorise them and write them off in their minds and hearts before they can reason with them in a proper and friendly debate.

If you have got this far then I respect your patience and would like to express my gratitude for my freedom of speech. 

Reading books today

My phone has the kindle app on it and that allows me to read digital versions of books. The digital versions of books are cheaper than the real thing. My phone weighs less than 200 grammes, Some of the books I read on my phone weigh more than 1 kilogramme in print. This means I can read heavy books with one hand and carry a whole bookshelf of books in my pocket. My phone has a back light so I don't need a reading lamp and it remembers the location I was at like a robotic bookmark that puts itself in the page for you. The smart phone has revolutionised how we read books. There is one device that I really think is cool and that is the kindle paper white. The kindle paper white is a black and white screen tablet for reading kindle e books. The screen imitates printed paper and does not use power to keep the screen updated so the tablet can go on for weeks without being charged. I would like to have one. There was one on display in a technology shop and I saw it with my own eyes. I love the feel of it and how it looks like real printed paper but when you flick your finger the page changes. When I next go to Pound land (shop), I will get a money jar and every time there are pound coins in my pocket I will put it in the jar. When the jar is full I will open it and use the money to buy a kindle paper white.

5 minutes

I have made 5 minutes of my movie so far, I am excited about finishing it. It is fiddly to make each minute of the movie but it will eventually take shape.The Earth is full of wonders. There are many wonders for me to show about the Earth. I'm feeling tired right now. Sitting here on my tea break writing my blog. Sometimes lying down and breathing deeply is such a nice thing, it is all a man needs.
