This morning I was out of the door quite early, so I managed to stop for a few minutes on my way to work to take this photo of rapeseed between Reading and Henley. I’ve been meaning to do this all week, as I think the sights of rapeseed fields at this time of the
Remembering Deborah James, who I was fortunate enough to meet on this day in 2017. Debs, a mum to Grace, sadly died of bowel cancer on July 27th 2017. We came into contact on social media in 2015 and we stayed in regular contact. Debs was one of the first people to agree to be
Why am I posting a photo from back in 2019 when the curls were out in full force… Well tonight I had one of those experiences that I just have to share. My next door neighbour had taken in a package for me from the Royal Mail, so he knocked on my door to hand
Department S was the first small independent band that I got into and I discovered them before the band achieved commercial success with their one chart success song Is Vic There? As a young teenager I discovered them on night-time Radio 1. Back in the 1980s Maidenhead had a really good independent record shop called

Six months ago I contacted my GP about my mental health and referred myself to Talking Therapies. My doctor prescribed me a low daily dosage of Sertraline and I had a course of CBT therapy on Talking Therapies. Today I had my three monthly check up to see how I am doing. The good news
Over the last 24 hours I’ve introduced Mr Poo to my social media posts for raising awareness about bowel cancer. Who knew how much fun could be had creating a talking turd! More importantly it gave me the opportunity to further raise the issue of checking your poo for blood, which is one of the
Yesterday I asked on social media whether people might be prepared to pay £25 for a vinyl copy of my debut album when it comes out later in the year. I reckon to make back the outlay and make some money for three cancer charities, I will need to sell about 60 vinyls… Over 20
