The world according to. Following absolutely no pressure or encouragement to start writing again, I took it upon myself to begin compiling my thoughts, observations and, well lets face it drivel that comes from an overworked and probably undersized brain. Tuesday, 18 October 2011. A phrase said in a broad Irish accent made famous by Father Jack. Is it because it acts as a relaxant, a hallucinogenic, and a pain suppressant? All of the above I guess? I was introduced to alcohol at a fairly early age, you s...

Carry On Cabby!: Holidays!
http://carryoncabby.blogspot.com/2008/08/holidays.html
Friday, 1 August 2008. I fondly remember my family holidays way back in the day when I was. My parents always made sure we had at least one week away every year. Long before air travel and foreign holidays became in reach of the common people our chosen destinations would be limited to South Wales, Devon or even as far as Ireland or the Isle of White. My earliest memory of a summer holiday was the annual day trip to Blackpool. My granddad was the treasurer for a local fishing club, and. Perhaps the decis...

Carry On Cabby!: Beijing Olympics – The Finals
http://carryoncabby.blogspot.com/2008/08/beijing-olympics-finals.html
Sunday, 31 August 2008. Beijing Olympics – The Finals. I know I am a week late with my final account of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, but unfortunately work gets in the way of life sometimes! This would be my last journey to Beijing during the Olympics and I had a packed agenda, as well as some serious ‘star gazing’ to do! Why was this important? Then as the evening drew on, I met up with an old bud. He jumped in the drivers seat and I seized the opportunity to be carried as a passenger – there are no...
