I’m Stuart Lennon.

Here, I explore how to survive, even prosper, in this mad world. Thanks for coming by.

Working Tools

The most obvious benefit? I'm saving a fortune on subscriptions. My mobile phone is Android, and therefore Google, and some apps seem inescapable; WhatsApp is ubiquitous here.

Trump 100

He's not a power-obsessed fascist. He's not the leader of an evil empire. He's not a Mafia don. He's not desperately seeking the approval of his Mummy. Actually, all of those might be inadvertently true, but none of them is the essence of Trump.

The Digest 04/05/25

Proof of address in Cyprus can be fun. There are at least six variants of my village's name. Two of them appear on road signs within metres of each other.

Limassol Greens

If the greens are kept hard and fast, windy conditions will be a real challenge. Some of the bunkering looked intimidating, and there's plenty of water around and about. I look forward to playing it. Particularly as I'll be able to walk it.

The Return of the Pocket Notebook

I resolved to make more time to get out and about without a specific reason and this, in turn, has led to a revival of my pocket notebook use.

The Forde MoneyChanger

This was 1988, not the middle-ages. There were computers in the business, in the head office. Not for me, though, I worked on the counters.

The Digest 27/04/25

Fifty-five, don't you know? How the hell did that happen? Last time I checked, I was in my late twenties, drinking far too much in Central Europe.

Flow - both water and work

He was a wit, my old man. He was right, too. I'm not gifted in these things and approach any that I attempt with trepidation. I bought a water bottle the other day, and very nearly broke it trying to assemble the cap.
