It is beginning to get a bit chilly in the man cave these days. Summer is clearly over and autumn is here. Nice to look out at, but with a foretaste of winter. Of course, I have all the mod cons here such as electricity, air-conditioning (rarely used) and heat can be delivered by the […]

Flags continue to occupy the headlines, either being put up or being taken down. There was a good display of them on Saturday at Tommy Robinson’s rally. There was also a good display on the way to Wales on Saturday. I was driving with my grandsons to see our team Hull City AFC play Swansea

I have a shameful admission to make. Until my oldest daughter messaged me to say that Charlie Kirk had been shot, I had never heard of him. He seems to have been a remarkably fearless and articulate debater, a proponent of free speech and politically and spiritually on the side of the angels. He was

The man cave remained in Hull while its regular occupant – me – went to Greece with Mrs Watson. This necessitated a prolonged publishing silence, as I was threatened with violence if I sneaked my laptop into my bag or even tried to write anything on my iPad or phone for the duration. My wife’s

Picture this – after waiting for what seems like an hour (probably in reality though only fifteen minutes, but of sheer neck-cricked Hell) you finally get from your seat in row 18 through the front door of a Jet2 plane and onto the tarmac into a packed shuttle bus. Next, you’re waiting in an endless

Either I am going mental or the world is going mental. If it’s a bit of both, then the world surely has the upper hand. The man cave is back where it belongs, in the back garden in Hull. At least we’re here for a week, before Mrs Watson and I take our old bones

The portable man cave is being dismantled and packed ready for transport back to the UK. Tomorrow, I fly from Chongqing to Hong Kong and then to Manchester. Very familiar with this journey, I know on the way out of China and through Hong Kong I can expect to be processed by smart young men

The man cave has upped sticks and moved from Hong Kong to mainland China. I am however a day late arriving here, as Hong Kong was hit by a typhoon on Sunday – the day I was originally due to fly to China. A Signal No 10 warning was issued and briefly intensified up to

This does not come from the man cave as I am working in the Far East for two weeks: one in Hong Kong and one in mainland China. However, the man cave is more a state of mind than a location. You can take the man out of the man cave…etc. My office window overlooks

Wimbledon is upon us and, with Mrs Watson hogging the television and the means to control it, it is on all the time. Is there a stupider game than tennis? Probably not. But I still like to watch it. But only Wimbledon; no other competition interests me. Ace serves, drop shots, forehand smashes, volleys, passing
