It has now been over 3 1/2 years since I started my blog. I am now a serious MND blogger! I have Motor Neurone Disease (MND/ALS), and I started this blog to have fun, yes fun. It is about my living with MND, but with an absolute splash of humour. I am very analytical, and…

“It’s cheese, Jim. But not as we know it!”
“What is Lee on?” I hear you asking? “What the ‘salami pizza’ is he going on about now?” There’s only one way to find out, my vulnerable and most delicate readers. Venture into the deep dark, possibly dangerous, but yet wonderfully alluring world of Onein400! You know you want to! Go on, go in…..
Can placebo trials ever be justified for terminal illness diseases……?
Hi readers, onein300 here with my latest MND Research commentary post. The title is a question I see occasionally posed on social media, disease community discussion groups and in the wider news. It most certainly is a conundrum. Jumping to an emotional conclusion should be avoided. Before you read on I want to point out…
Refresh the soul – Or a day out scootering!
Afternoon readers. My last post raised the act of soul refreshment! No this is not some Lord Bragg sponsored drink, but the simple act of travel and shopping, of course! This is the story of one man’s weekend to do just that! Along with his beautiful, and yet somewhat mysterious wife, he takes on an…
Rules are made to be broken?
Hi, readers! Another few weeks in onein400 land have passed. I apologise for the recent ‘radio silence’. The good weather and organised chaos have kept me from quill and ink! But now I am back! Settle down with your last remaining Easter eggs (some half price ones are still available in the stores!), enjoy another…
Take it easy and watch the world go by – Lesson 35
Good morning, readers. You certainly need some real upbeat reading this week. Here in the UK we have a rather hairy political situation which has got, to be honest, pretty tedious for the whole nation.
The trials and tribulations of coy scientists
Welcome, to my first research opinion post of 2019 on the hunt for an effective treatment for MND. “About time!” I hear you cry. Calm down, readers. I have been deep in thought and wanted to give you something worth sitting down with a nice cup of coffee to enjoy. This stuff doesn’t write itself,…
Clubs
Clubs, clubs, clubs…… Arhhhh. The exclusiveness, utter privilege and above all the benefits and perks! Just show your platinum membership card, greet your host with the special handshake and enter onein400’s mysterious world of privacy! And absolutely no jeans!!
Times they are a changin….
Or are they? This week’s theme, to weave into my everyday life, is one of those loose phrases that is often both true and false. Of course, it’s also a classic Bob Dylan song. More from the legendary Bob later but, in the meantime, on with my epistle produced during the recent UK snow! I…
13 days Later…
Welcome to 2019 readers! My post is a little bit late. Thirteen days late to be precise. I decided to let all of you get back into the real swing of things before penning my first strange, but often entirely true, musings of the year. Has the New Year reset, and perhaps, purified the whole of humanity?…
1981 – A Vintage London Fairy Tale
The year is 1981. It is 5.40pm and Lord Lee Bragg, in his Soho Office, is just tidying up his papers after a long trying, yet invigorating, Christmas Eve working day. He is about to set off for Waterloo Station heading home……
Why thinking things through and not jumping to conclusions is good…
Afternoon readers! Another week has passed.
The relentless focus on getting a clearer picture…
This is my latest post on MND Research. I hope you find it interesting.
I’m coming out and the Heat is On!
“I’m coming out, I want the world to know, I’m coming out….”
Let us just think about this…..
Hi, readers. It’s been half term week or two around the UK. So despite all the world’s ills, there’s been a break from apparent impending global catastrophes! Phew! It’s a relief to know that onein400 can bring some realism and sanity to your daily toil, or perhaps just a little bit of relaxation over a…
Snake oil, pig urine and “buy one get one free”!
This post was first published 3 years ago now! I have checked it for political correctness (as the world has gone mad in this short time), and decided to leave it largely as is! Enjoy this digitally remastered diatribe! Well, you all know by now that my titles are never what they seem; and this…
Anything can happen…
But probably won’t!!! Hi readers! Apologies for my short absence from the blog musings. You will probably agree that social media is becoming a bit, how can I put it, anti-social! So I must ensure my writings for you are enjoyable and pleasant. Quality is vital! The title this week is probably applicable to everything…
Get a grip!
Hi, readers! Get a grip! What do I mean, my loyal subscribers? Read on, into the mystical, yet strangely, totally believable world of onein400…..
