    OPERATION LOCKDOWN

    He tried not to tense. Stay relaxed, but focussed. He was sweating in the warm sun, the droplets of moisture ran into his eyes. He blinked them away and carried on. Almost there. He skilfully removed the bone, held between the small tweezers, from the opening in the arm and when he drew the instrument…

  • MODERN WARFARE

    This was war. Storm the capital. Tear down the barricades. Release the hounds of hell. This was his crucible. He would destroy them. Save the country and his people.

    New Year. New me.Resolutions. Not new ones. The same ones as last year, but this time I’m going to stick to them. Get up, get moving, shift the pounds, feel the burn. No more lounging around the house in pyjamas. Dress for success. Productivity is the key. New stationery organised. Ready for work. Not sure…
