Yesterday I went to see my son in his school play called “Do you remember the first time?”. He, along with 3 other children, played the part of adults waiting to go into an interview and they began talking about how it was the ‘first time’ for them. As they began to talk they spoke [...]
A rather odd title I admit but sometimes some of the more insane things to do are the absolute best things to do. This became apparent when I volunteered myself to do a triathlon in August this year. Most of you know that I love cycling and really enjoy running that’s 2 out of 3 [...]
This is just a quick post that came to me this morning as I was getting up, “What gets you going?”. I envy people who find it easy to get up early in the morning as this is always something I struggle with, don’t get me wrong I always wake by 7.30am which some would [...]

To my shame this was a feeling that was exaggerated in some of my [...]
Funny statement to make but it is all too valid, the reality is that without the past we cannot develop or grow. Today has been a funny kind of day really. With the onset of the nice weather the shed beckoned to be sorted out and as much as I didn’t really want to do [...]
You may remember a film called Pay it forward in which a young boy was given an assignment by his teacher to think of something that would change the world and put it into action. The boy came up with the idea to “pay it forward”, the idea was simple in that he would do [...]
This was the scene in Nottingham today. Not too bad considering how bad the weather gets in other countries but as true Brits we were totally ill-equipped to cope with the snow.
