As mentioned yesterday, Peaky Blinders is Shea and my’s current viewing obsession. Here’s a taste… Watching this show now and over the years, a series of buzzed upon shows ranging from “Breaking Bad” to “The Wire” to “Sons of Anarchy” to “Yellowstone” along with various others which fit in that “Must Watch” category, I wondered […]
I’m not 100% sure but I think this is a picture of the box when I bought my last laptop, a MacBook Pro, sometime in 2012? I’ve had a few maintenance things over the years – I think I replaced the hard drive, added memory going from 4 to 8GB, bought a new power […]

With Tom Brady’s latest Super Bowl win possibly cementing his status as the greatest American football player of all-time, it’s also sparked debates about who is the greatest athlete of all-time? Serious question. If Tom Brady having won more Super Bowls than every franchise in the NFL history isn't the most amazing individual statistic in […]
Normally, Saturday Snap is a pic I’ve taken but I came across this on social media and decided to post it… We’ve been fortunate to do a winter holiday for the past few years so now that we’re into February, it’s starting to hit me that this won’t be happening this year (doesn’t help that […]
