I try not to write about myself, it seems for me personally a bit self-indulgent, but feel the need to do so to work some things out. By having it written down it feels orderly and I might [...]

This is my 100th blog post on WordPress and the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic on her maiden voyage. To commemorate both of these anniversaries, I decided to write this blog around the theme of this maritime disaster. A topic that still ievokes passion today, as it did back then in the previous century.

A short poem about our weekend trip to London to see Kasabian at Wembley Arena. Flowing beer and flowing crowds, plastic missiles, very loud, Not expecting the scene on view, loony crowds who had had a few.
