Let’s get the elephant in the room out of the way (no self deprecating pun intended). I lost weight. Yay! 2.5lbs according to the Slimming

Mood share

April 28, 2016 daveywankenobie

This morning when I awoke the thinnest sliver of perspective stood between Thursday starting as a good day or a bad day. On the face

April 26, 2016 daveywankenobie

Watch it

April 24, 2016 daveywankenobie

Gimme some skin

April 22, 2016 daveywankenobie

Today I feel good. I’m not talking emotionally good, although that’s pretty dandy as well. I mean physically good. I may be imagining it but there’s

Breakfast hipster

April 18, 2016 daveywankenobie

Well, from a healthy eating perspective today went well. I’ll admit to feeling a bit peckish at work, but I’m wondering whether that’s because I didn’t stagger

Creature of habit

April 17, 2016 daveywankenobie

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday was a bad one. Today I already feel markedly different. Maybe it’s sleep, or maybe it’s because I’m

Reality

April 16, 2016 daveywankenobie

I’ve taken a step in the right direction this morning and ripped off the proverbial band aid. I woke up hyper aware that now it was Saturday

Little boat

April 16, 2016 daveywankenobie

Although I can hardly speak this evening I’m generally on the mend from being ill. I can live with croaking and coughing as long as I

Happiness is the way

April 11, 2016 daveywankenobie

I feel like there’s a snooker ball in my sinuses. I dont do ill very well, and I am exasperated that I can’t sleep at the

Circling the drain

April 9, 2016 daveywankenobie

I woke up this morning after a nice day off yesterday with a thumping headache and a nose crammed full of snot. I’m not one

Not one single person

April 7, 2016 daveywankenobie

I’ve decided to have a ‘me’ day on Friday and booked it off this afternoon. The last few weeks have been rewarding but long and I

Moment of Zen

April 5, 2016 daveywankenobie

The people who know me will probably be best placed to decide whether I suffer from stress or not. Previously I would have been 99.9% sure

Donut

April 4, 2016 daveywankenobie

It’s Sunday. After a late night (I hit the sack at 4am) my eyes are tired and I’m a bit grouchy. I woke up some time

When your partner gets her kicks by making a copy of you in animal crossing and giggles uncontrollably as you shake maracas 🙄it’s spousal abuse... #animalcrossingnewhorizons
Life may be shyte at the moment but you can help smiling at this cosy pooch transportation method 😂
Happy new year! Let’s hope we all survive the zombie apocalypse long enough to see 2022! 😂
Love is not expressed by grand gestures, bottles of champagne or expensive trinkets. It’s to be found instead in something as simple as feeling insanely happy that you’re both wearing matching slippers on Christmas Day. To me this says more about how alike and in love you are than any diamonds or lumps of hammered gold could ever do. 2020 has been a s&&t year - but it’s proven without any doubt that the person I’ve chosen to be in my life (and spent every single day with) is absolutely the right one for me. Happy Christmas all 🎄🎅🏻
When your partner discovers the 1962 Peel P50 in Forza Horizon 4 😂
Seems like Tesco now do an ultra hd car wash! Try as I might I couldn’t see where on earth to plug in my Xbox - and they mentioned nothing about high dynamic range 🤔if I didn’t know better I’d say that this was a clever marketing ploy to sell soap to men...
Today was the day... where I downloaded absolutely shedloads of patches and all of my current gen games loaded really quick and looked rather smooth. Hopefully some real system testing games will come out soon and next gen will start in earnest! #xboxseriesx
I knew the Earth was flat!!! Video games proved it! #thetouryst
Wonder what this noisy little sod trapped in the lampshade is? Not seen one of these before... 🤔
The dark side of trick or treating.
When your fish tank needs just a little.... something more.
I had the rudest taxi driver today! Honestly shocking service. I left no tip.
