Five Enduring Christmas Memories

Each year I’ve been blogging so far, I’ve taken the time to do two things: a Christmas themed piece of flash fiction and a Christmas themed non-fiction post. Unfortunately, the former hasn’t transpired this year. I won’t lie: I haven’t even tried brainstorming any ideas for it. Do I feel bad for it? No, not … Continue reading Five Enduring Christmas Memories

My Five Most Listened-to Tracks of 2018

The clue is in the title! In ascending order, here are the tracks I listened to the most in 2018 according to my phone’s music player. There isn’t really much I can say by way of introduction to this post, so I’ll just leave it here and hope you enjoy the tunes!   5. Sister … Continue reading My Five Most Listened-to Tracks of 2018

Five Things I Hate About Christmas

The old saying goes that there’s nothing as certain as death and taxes. In the modern western world, I think we can add Christmas to that list too. Once you hit October it consumes pretty much everything going forward from there. Weeks and weeks of preparation for one day. As a child, I loved Christmas. … Continue reading Five Things I Hate About Christmas

Five of My Favourite Albums of All Time

I’m not sure why it took me so long to start on this particular post. It’s so smack-in-the-face obvious. Perhaps that’s the reason why I didn’t to be honest. I’m not a fan of obvious. Nonetheless, here we are. I have a lot of albums that I could define as favourites. This post nods towards … Continue reading Five of My Favourite Albums of All Time

Five More Videogames That I Love

In one of my first posts just over a year ago, Five Videogames I Love (And a Brief History of My Life as a Gamer), I gave a rundown, believe it or not, of five videogames that I love. Click the link to discover what they were and why I love them. The thing is … Continue reading Five More Videogames That I Love

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Tracks That Were Remade or Sampled to Great Effect

(Lots of YouTube video links contained—you have been warned!) My recent break was really good for one reason in particular: my love for music that had taken a leave of absence came back with a vengeance. Writing had consumed me so much that my brain didn’t seem to have the capacity to appreciate music as … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Tracks That Were Remade or Sampled to Great Effect

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Stupid/Pointless Things I’d Do if Money Was No Object and I Had Too Much Time on My Hands

As it’s April 1st I feel some foolishness is in order. I’ve been a bit too serious of late and would like to drag things back to a more shallow and humorous note. Let’s face it; we’ve all thought about what we’d do if we came into an obscene amount of money. Here in Britain, I … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Stupid/Pointless Things I’d Do if Money Was No Object and I Had Too Much Time on My Hands

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Biggest Videogame Let-downs

Waaaaaay back in the early days of my blog I ran down what five of my favourite videogames were. It was tough to choose five from the many games that I really enjoy and I have a huge list of potential titles that could have made that list aside from the five I eventually settled … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Biggest Videogame Let-downs

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Tracks That Make Me Happy

I gave up a long time ago on ever attempting to make a list of my favourite tracks. It’s physically impossible. I swear that discovering what lies beyond the event horizon of a black hole is more possible than me compiling a top twenty of favourite tracks. Certain music suits certain moods, so some days … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Tracks That Make Me Happy

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Memorable Things That Happened In 2016

I love New Year. I love it in an ironic way. I love the cringeworthy end of year reviews people do as posts on Facebook and the like. I purposely avoided reading most such things here on WordPress as I often don’t buy into the whole ‘new year, new me’ time for self-reflection thing. I think … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Memorable Things That Happened In 2016
