Lola, you are our world, how can you think otherwise. We were all so happy when you arrived. You were (and still are) doted on by your sister just like your mummy and daddy. As you got older your... more

    Advantages Advantages A follow up to Stillbirth review

    Disadvantages Disadvantages My angel is still gone

    Many of you will have read my review on Stillbirth. This is a follow up of sorts, although things aren't any further. Bear with me while I unload some more thoughts. A quick recap- On Tuesday 26th April, 2005, I was given the news that my unborn baby was not going to survive any more than a few seconds after birth due to major defects mostly related to the absence of any kidneys. Medically, there was nothing that could be done to change or help things along. On the day I was told the baby would die, I met this lovely nurse. She was there again on the Thursday when I went to discuss things ... more

    Well as most if not all of you will no by now that Lou aka playgirl27 died on the 18th of December 2006. Well Lou was not just my sister but also a very close friend I would go as far as to say as my best friend I have ever or likely to have again. I thought this may help me to write down how I felt and am feeling now and how I found out that Lou had been cruelly taken from us at such a young age. Before I do start I just want to say a massive thanks to the cards, flowers and messages of support that me and our family have received from people of the internet and the people that even came to ... more

    Advantages Advantages laughter, fun and love

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A lot of years lost

    I have decided to write another review while I get the chance, WHY I hear you say, well let me tell you, lately there is always a fight to get on the computer, seeing as my lovely wife has took back up writing on here and my dearest daughter has caught the bug called ciao as well, so after a long hard pulling and shoving, I have managed to get them both off here and I am going to try and stay as long as possible, but I don't really stand a chance with two females sitting ready to pounce and break my fingers so I can't get back on for a while. I have thought about what I wanted to write and it ... more

    Advantages Advantages Just me ranting, as per usual

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Amateur psychologists need not apply ;-)

    “Find what you love and let it kill you” says Charles Bukowski. And you know, I have to agree with him. It would be nonsensical to find what you die and let THAT kill you – what a waste. Even if you die fighting, surely fighting for something you care for (freedom, equality, justice) is better than fighting against something you hate – but hey, that’s just me, and I get life all wrong, the last year seems to have proven. Love to me is the most precious and most important thing on earth, probably because I haven’t had much of it. But, regardless of my past, I truly believe that love is the one ... more

    Advantages Advantages Interesting, entertaining and thought provoking reading

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None, though it isn't to everybody's taste.

    I like to read and I certainly like science fiction and military science fiction though not exclusivly. But what is science fiction I sometimes hear you ask? You have to know where I am coming from to have an idea where I am going, so a brief history is in order. Science Fiction in general. The answer to what is science fiction is one of the most complicated answers in literature. The writer and editor Damon Knight said of it, "science fiction is what we point to when we say it". Basically it is fiction dealing with more or less plausible events in a future setting. Such things as very ... more
