Well,  before we get heavily into this blog. I invite you to sit back and enjoy(?) a little bit of Mike Myers doing his Austin Powers/Dr. Evil schtick. The reason will become all too clear. Sorry, if you found that painfully unfunny and I’ve robbed you of a couple of minutes of life you ain’tContinue reading “Moley, Moley, Moley”

A short musical update for this week. I plan for next week’s ‘normal’ blog to be a big and difficult one…. Flicking round Youtube, like you do, you can suddenly find moments of your past staring right back at you. For example, I was in a band called Highrise for a very short time inContinue reading “A Brief Moment In Time”

This current experiment has been going on for about three months now, so it’s about time that I evaluated the state of play. It started when I decided to ignore the fact that neurobiochemistry is complicated and just dove right in to test my theory. Which was that David is deficient in the neurotransmitter GABA.Continue reading “All About GABA”

First off all, I just want to say how proud I am of that title – you can’t beat a schoolboy pun. Be thankful, I was going to call this one **ENT – Extreme Nose Terror, which was another great punk rock reference but I feel fairly in touch with my audience and your graspContinue reading “Gag Reflex – it’s no joke!!”

Yes, I admit it. This weeks blog is all about pulling at your heart strings so that you might click on a video, add us to your Spotify list and increase my vast wealth by a minuscule amount. Last year I earned €3 from music. Obviously, this was vastly defeated by my outgoings, but weContinue reading “A Shameless Piece of Self-Promotion”

Why this week’s title? Well, because my experience of sleep clinics resembles something that only Cleese and Chapman could have written. Picture the scene… We’re in a hospital room. There are 2 beds, both occupied by patients. The patients are covered head to toe in cables. So much so that they can hardly move. TheContinue reading “Machines That Go Ping!”

One of my favourite questions and one that every vegetarian loves being asked. Maybe I should go around demanding that meat-eaters tell me where they get their fibre from in retaliation…? Just as I like to rotate the COLOURS of what I’m eating, I also have a masterplan for protein. It’s not as strict as itContinue reading “Where do you get your protein from?”

Sorry for the title, but it’s not often I get to namecheck an album by an obscure Boston punk band! So, I started my 30s working in an inner city school in the North of England. I was drinking, eating quite poorly and doing no exercise. Levels of stress had started to rise and IContinue reading “Older……….Budweiser”

Sometimes, you just got to stop those overwhelming negative thoughts and appreciate the things you have, the things that you often take for granted. Music is a real constant in my life and when I’m playing and I’m totally in the zone (or some other poorly acquired sport terminology), I forget about everything else –Continue reading “Musik Therapie mit Moto”

Enjoying a May Day cuppa! That is indeed the question but before I answer it, I better paint the scene for you. Our drinking normally looks like a bottle of wine shared over dinner, and that happens 3-4 times a week. I say, normally. There can be weeks where it is practically every day –Continue reading “To Drink or Not To Drink?”
