  • Double-dip

    We went into town today to see Ky’s old work, and when we arrived, Occi had done a remarkably creamy turd. The combination of the roadtrip, introduction to solids, and a three-day brew made it particularly pongy. We (almost) came prepared; and car boots really do make great change tables in a rush. Sadly, we…

  • Envy & Similarity

    I read something very briefly in my inbox this afternoon about whether Social Media was driving a rise in envy. The case was persuasive. The author, Rob Henderson, discussed how when he was a child, a popular tv show was MTV Crips. The premise was simple; people like Jay Z and Ludacris would bring TV…

  • Back to it

    It’s back to work, after a few days off. Our trip to Australia was flat chat, and arriving at 1 am didn’t make things any easier. Today wasn’t the most productive day I have ever had, but work is a marathon, not a sprint, and burning yourself out on a Monday is a fool’s strategy.

  • Australia

    I’m writing this on my way from a whirlwind 5 days in Australia. It’s been great. You probably have noticed that the most recent posts have been rather shabby, if not downright absent of any valuable content. Well, consider this post a proper catchup. We flew in on Wednesday night, and besides sitting behind good…

  • Disappointed

    I was due to write about my time in Melbourne, but honestly, the time has escaped me, and I am in no position to write the things I mean to say. Instead, I’ll pick some low hanging fruit and say how saddened I was by the inflationary curse that has hit Australia’s liquor stores. However,…

  • Big day

    Not just a big day, but a great day. We went to a family trip to the art gallery to see an incredible exhibit, then finished with the best dinner celebrating my sister’s engagement. More to come tomorrow!

Why I started this blog

I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.

With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.

While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
