It was probably one of my longest trips ever. Not in terms of just distance, but in terms of time. There were two connecting flights, but I'm used to that. But due to strong head winds, my westbound flight was delayed and I missed my scheduled connections. I never liked flying to Oregon, but now sitting around an airport for 4 extra hours in the middle of...

A guy like me never gets a girl like Marsha. Maybe in the movies but not in real life. Three years ago Marsha started work in the office of SSA, that is; Safety and Security Affilia...

Hi! My name is Ethan, but then you knew that already because I'm, like, famous now. Famous for surviving 7 years on a desert island, all alone. Well, nearly all alone, we can't forget Niamh can we? I'm getting ahead of myself. So, umm, yeah, I should probably start somewhere at the beginning. I should probably give you some info on me. When all the fun beg...
Part Three Twenty-one Monday arrived in a blaze of heat that prised open Nick’s eyes. No chance to savour the lie-in, Matt and Pete’s pained snoring quickly forced him downstairs to where Richey sat in the back bar, sipping fresh orange juice and pondering life. This latest comeback self-financed and the single independently released, there would be no en...
