Barry O'Leary has been writing for over 14 years, and one day he hopes his kids will download his books on whatever platform they are using at the time and have a damn good chuckle.

He has self-published four books, one travel literature book, a self-help ESL book, and two contemporary humourous romance novels.

You can find him in Seville, Spain, teaching English and busily working on his next book.

The best way to keep up to date with his work is here on GR.

Thanks

If I do have a period where I can't actually write, then I normally add a diary entry and talk about my kids, my life, my students, or the fact that I keep jumping about too much, and that tends to sort it out.(less)

萨卡最近7次首发4球4助 名宿:可竞争年度最佳球员
欧联杯小组赛第4轮,阿森纳客场1比0小胜博德闪耀,萨卡连场破门,阿森纳3战全胜领跑。  第24分钟,萨卡同洛孔加踢墙配合后小禁区前射门被封堵,随后皮球打在他脸上反弹入网。  最近2场比赛,萨卡打入了3球,上一轮对利物浦的比赛,他就曾梅开二度。  萨卡在过去7次首发的比赛中取得了4个进球4个助攻,状态爆棚。  本赛季萨卡在英超出场9次,打入3球,助攻4次。  他在欧联杯出场3次,其中1次首发,打入1球。  阿森纳名宿基翁表示:“马蒂内利和萨卡已经在争夺年度最佳球员了。”  萨卡与阿森纳的合同2024年到期,续约问题已经摆上了桌面,他有望获得20万英镑的周薪,成为球队收入最高的球员之一。  (塞尔吉奥)

Michael Palin, Diaries 1969-1979: The Python Years

“Not one of your pertinent ancestors was squashed, devoured, drowned, starved, stranded, stuck fast, untimely wounded, or otherwise deflected from its life's quest of delivering a tiny charge of genetic material to the right partner at the right moment in order to perpetuate the only possible sequence of hereditary combinations that could result -- eventually, astoundingly, and all too briefly -- in you.”
Bill Bryson, A Short History of Nearly Everything
