It's only Thursday & the signs of Flu 'Fever' have arrived!!





















PANdemIC






Hi folks, this is just a wee Thursday entry of some of the slight hysteria already mounting over the impending Flu virus that is about to or has, hit our shores here in the UK.


On my way home last night, I spotted two commuters already with their masks on which was quite unnerving to say the least and maybe it's a sign of things to come within the next few weeks. WHO knows ?


Watching the WHO press conference last night, they have upped the level to 5 to state that the pandemic is imminent!! I'm starting to question my original thoughts that this would not be as serious but the escalating media frenzy and doom laden comments are sparking the doubts but in the end of the day, flu virus's are and have always been highly unpredictable so it's anyones guess how strong this could be. Could this be the virus they have always stated would one day come and wipe out some of the population like the Spanish Flu managed early last century or could this die out as soon as it came ? My optimistic head still, states the latter!! Don't panic kids, just wash your hands and avoid kissing dodgy looking folk like the plague!


It's in times like these though that we should all appreciate what we got in life and if you don't have it...go and get it!! Life is precious


& on that cheery note, I'll be back next week with a brighter and wheezier blog...I hope!!



Peace & love

(S)'Wine Flu,Recession and Big Brother Britain..& it's only Monday!






What Swine gave me flu?


It's Monday 27th April & it it seems that the world is about to be wiped out by a mutating Pig virus!! It does all sound pretty hairy though it's best remembering that the Avrian 'Bird' flu virus was meant to have wiped the world out nearly two years ago with all the media frenzy so its best to keep that in mind. Humans are a tough old bunch & a lot healthier than in the days of the Spanish Flu...just trying to keep an optimistic head on one's shoulders ..until the dreaded symptoms hit could hit and then Bad MANFLU appears!!


Recession:

It's only Monday and yet, All I'm hearing is that the main core of the reccession is finally here..sitting in my office, it seems most of the folk are hearing of nothing else from their clients and the outlook looks shite, well at least for now, even my job here is about to come to an end so its a pretty depressing thing searching out for work which is scarse on the ground but battle through we shall!!



BB Britain:




I've read today that our nosey Big Brother of a Goverment are still not satisfied into prying into our lives further ( under the guise of terrorism protection) so that want to keep ALL records of anything we say or write in personal emails or phone calls!! The fact that goverment agencies can do this anyway if they are looking into suspect plots is justified but this plan they have for normal folk is just a step toooooo far and it has Chinese styled Communism written all over it!!! Very worrying...







Well , thats Monday covered, lets hope the week gets better eh...& for the Sun to rear its head again!!

All the best

It's been some time but Biddiss is back on the Blog

Hello folks, it has been a wee while since I ventured on the Blogispere to air any news!! Subjects are a little thin on the ground this week until I start putting on my thinking cap back on so I may take this opportunity to have a blogout this week with what I've been up too recently!

Well, having spent a little time away ,I've been busy finishing off the draft for a children's book character with which I have received some encouraging news from a publisher but its early days yet so I'm not going to get too excited though the signs are looking good as what I have done has apparently not been done before!!! I'd love to tell you the scoop but I have to leave it for another time when I get the clearance to do so...I shall keep thee posted

In other news, have been recording as well as writing some new material which may come out before the album itself as I'm looking to do a mini-album of acoustic songs. One of the new tracks 'Takes-1-2-know 1' is a stomper and I will try and get that released online within the next few months if everything goes to plan...

In other news, I will be doing a little stint on a programme on BB3 which I will be recording next month...more news about what it's all about soon...

So aside from that, not much else to report!! Hope you all are doing well and remember kids, don't give up to giving up, no matter what the buggers put you through!!


& on that bombshell .. I'll speak to you very soon

Much love

Mark

The thin line of Interpretation & mis-interpretation:Reading into what's there and not there: The Biddiss Debate :


























Hi Folks.


Hope you are doing well and enjoying the 1st throes of Spring..(while it lasts)
I've been a way for a wee while, dealing with all manner of things that have been currently occupying the thought strands of Mr Biddiss!

The past few months alone has been rather quite surreal & rather exhausting all in one fowl swoop though in other aspects, it has also been quite creative artistically thinking....


....Which neatly brings me onto the subject of interpretation and mis-interpretation!




















For eons, it has been academically accepted that Men and Women sometimes tend to communicate differently to one another. Now, when there are fraught emotions in there too with the opposite number, I think the communication angle can get very haz-hazard and all manner of things can be lost in translation and interpretation in times of stress.

People, it must be said, do tend to be like magnets and it's no wonder the world can be in such a state as it is when pride takes place before the inevitable fall, no matter what fence you sit on!!!















...& on that Bombshell...
I'll be seeing you...with a less fraught blog next time!!

Gone Fishing.. theoretically speaking!

Hi folks,

Well, not really much to report this week so I'm keeping it rather brief!
I'm just currently recording whilst in the midst of creating a new project which I'll reveal more about at a later date plus currently, plying my reserve energy into another situation and hoping on a wee positive breakthrough very close to the Biddiss bosom!!!

Well that's all, said it would be brief ..which is a new thing for me writing on this blog:)

Keep tuned.
keep well
&
look after yourselves!!

Peter Cook plaque :It's up..thank f**k!

...& Finally!

After a year & a half, from coming up with the obsurd idea of honouring one of the worlds greatest comedians , to trying to arrange the day only to have had it hijacked halfway through which caused a split between myself and The Heritage Foundation who organised the official bash,along with Westminster Council. The plaque with my lovingly put inscription has finally been nailed to the wall (not in chiswick-Derek & clive fans know what I mean:) ) ..

I can finally put to bed an episode that has been anything but fun!

Well, thankfully, this little saga which entailed a couple of deranged online stalkers ( who are still now mailing me with there bile (we know who you are) has been put to bed, I can move on to pastures new finally! I'm now looking to recharge the Biddiss batteries and plow on competing the album and start getting back into normal life..as well as licking my wounds :(!!

I shall be back soon with a new page and a new start!!

Has it been worth all the strain ???

No, not really but I have no regrets,, aside from a few from the ones who mattered!!!

All the best

Biddiss
