Blog Orbit – December 2023

Hello there bloggies! Here we are… December. How did that happen? Last I knew it was May and still cold. Now it’s December and it’s cold and now wet. We’re nearly another year down and I’m thinking about the Letter to Myself that I always write at the beginning of the year, to be opened in 2024. People have said before that they might take part in this – consider this your reminder 🙂

As it’s cold for those of us in the norther hemisphere why do you sit around the fire and read about what I’ve been up to on the blog world in November. If you’re in the southern hemisphere, keep the Sun off your head and read up too!

While I’m here I want to draw your attention away from this space to my other blog – Simon’s Mind Space
is a new blog where I’m focusing on the mind, philosophy and such to show where I’ve been working on my mind and how thinking about thins differently has helped me.

A couple of things have caught my attention in October, Mainly to do with stupid ideas around water bottles and the current bunch of idiots in charge of the UK – Not much really! 😉

Thinking about it makes it hurt – Air Up

Thinking about it makes it hurt – Rishi and the Conservatives

Is it me? Or am I the crazy one?

I have carried on the SciFi talk and looked at how the current society has influenced one of the Sci-Fi greats and a lack of vision of a future society affected one of the Science Fiction classics.
