Never stop** Why the 2012 London Olympics game is proof that progression should never stop The legacy of the 2012 London Olympic Games would be progression. The London 2012 Olympic Games were the first Games where every country had a female competitor, thanks to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Brunei making the decision to allow female athletes their chance to compete.

We had fought for a long time, plenty of shots were fired, one attack after another. He walked in without saying a word or showing emotion and approached the table
Read moreThis blog post/diary entry is long overdue, but still better late than never. Overall I failed at my attempt to complete NaNoWriMo 2017 in spectacular fashion by giving up after a week and only managing 505 words. I thought about giving up on NaNoWriMo altogether after failing in 2016 and 2017 to achieve the 50,000 word goal, however I do
Read moreThe purpose of a season finale is to conclude the season’s story arcs and set up potential new ones for the next season…Harrow certainly achieved this effortlessly. The episode kicks off with the case of the week in a way unique to Harrow. We see Tom (Joel Tobeck) walking around an office, looking out the window and watching a police
Read moreSo we’ve reached the penultimate episode of Harrow‘s first season. The case of the week focuses on Stan Wagner, an elderly man from the Czech Republic, who is smothered to death in the nursing home he lives in. Most of the episode is set in the nursing home as Harrow and Jack conduct their investigation, from making observations on Stan’s

The contrast between the Sando’s ads from the 90s and Tony’s ad and plans for Sando’s now and in the future were clear as day. Obviously the board weren’t going for it and before they could tell him this, Sando
Read moreAgain the episode kicks off with a 90s-ish Sando’s ad, this time focusing on dodgy furniture contracts. This episode mainly focuses on Don and Sando as they are locked in Don’s “man cave” for most of it, both of them needing to escape as they have important events to attend–Don, his first pub gig, and Sando, the board meeting. While
Read moreIn my previous review, I asked for improvement in the second half of the season and this episode certainly showed promise. The episode kicks off again with a 90s-ish ad establishing the episode’s theme–hypnotism. Susie wants Sando to have a therapy session with Nicky to get her to change, during this session Nicky tries to get Sando to open up,
Read moreWhile Sando has been filled with outlandish jokes, unfortunately in this episode the A story itself was outlandish and ridiculous, which brought down the episode and made it a failure. The episode kicks off with its usual 90s-ish Sando’s ad of an “out with the old, in with the new” sale, which of course is the theme of the episode.
Read moreRefreshingly, this episode had three subplots and didn’t put the Quinn subplot front and centre. The episode kicks off with a rower discovering the body of a young fellow rower, Rhys Weir (Earl John) who has seemingly slipped and hit his head on the pier, but of course it’s not that easy. We are given the all-too obvious red herring
