"The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation" - Walden, H.D. Thoreau















It is staggering to ponder the billions of humans that have inhabited the earth over the past two hundred thousand years. I find it sad that they all lived short lives, every one with varying degrees of heartache, disappointments, and maladies, and every one spent wrapped up in its own seemingly important pursuits...now almost entirely lost in time and obscurity.

In this context, what really matters and how should we spend our precious time and energy?

  1. A couple of weeks ago, my garden drain completely backed up during heavy rain. I had no idea who to call, but a friend pointed me to drainboss.co.uk. Booking was quick, and they arrived the same day, which was a huge relief. The engineer was friendly and clearly experienced—sorted everything in under an hour. It honestly saved me from a much bigger mess. Glad I didn’t wait longer!
