Since when did more equal less?
I don’t understand the logic of many Americans. Their “solution” to prevent further mass shootings like Sunday’s Orlando massacre is to put more guns on the street. Read more

Who’s a bit of a tit? That’s right, me! Read more
Goodnight Grandma
We knew this morning that God was calling your name,
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. Read more

I always enjoy a good healthy debate. Read more
Wedding bells in the air
Eight years ago I did the honourable thing and proposed to my beautiful partner, we’re still together so obviously she said “yes”, however we didn’t get married. It took me another seven and a half years to actually pull my finger out and start organising our big day. Read more
A protracted recovery
On December 11th 2012 I let a bloke in a mask cut me open and break my ribs. OK it’s not quite as simple as that, I had major surgery to correct Pectus Excavatum. Read more
The balls are still wet!
Over the years I’ve been ranting in different places, it all started on Blogger, I chose to use the name Life Licks Balls, partly in homage to the incredible Kevin Smith movie (well I think it’s incredible anyway) ‘Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back’ where Jay (played by Jason Mewes) calls the people he dislikes Ball Lickers.

Less Splash! More Plop!
It’s hard to imagine a worse live “entertainment” show than the one I watched on Saturday night. Instead of making a big “Splash!” on ITV it made barely a ripple in my eyes. Read more
