This is one of my favourite places at work. It’s a 10-15 walk up through the woods. A pretty steep incline, hence the reason for my out of breath video on social media earlier. I used to walk Prince and his mum, Storm, up the hill pretty much every lunchtime. Note to myself… Get fit!!

After a couple of quiet weeks, I had a couple of charity teddy bears to make up today at work. That was my lunchtime activity. One is now en route to its new home. The other one I am awaiting payment for. This happens from time to time. I have to wait because sometimes people

Tonight at 7.00pm myself and many many other people lit a candle for Bowel Cancer UK’s Remember Together during bowel cancer awareness month. I dedicated this to my mum, who died of this awful disease in 2016. In all honesty though I think about her every day, but recently I have felt able to move

Colours coming out in my garden. This Wisteria is one of my success stories. It’s actually in a pot, which I guess has restricted it’s spread, but I think it’s actually just the right size and at least the trellising survives! Tonight I have been mixing the new music recording of the track called Destiny.

As it’s bowel cancer awareness month, I thought that I would try and articulate a little of mum’s cancer from my perspective. I know that relatives can be regarded as carers, but that certainly didn’t apply to me with mum, who was very independent throughout her cancer until the final few months. She remained a

The main event today was the launch of the Check Your Poo video. In some ways making the video was more time consuming than recording the music. Getting the support of so many amazing people means the absolute world to me, and without this incredible support this kind of video would not be possible. I

I am typing this post whilst listening to Hard Rock Hell Radio, as Dave Renegade is very kindly going to give my Check Your Poo song a play on his show between 9.00 and midnight. This will be the first play on radio anywhere for the track. As ever all airplay is greatly appreciated, especially

Today I have started putting the video for the Check Your Poo song together. I wanted a few more photos and had a really good response, so I am just waiting on a couple more to be sent to me. Of course I will still gratefully accept any more that might come in as well.

Today I put out the final call for photos / videos for the Check Your Poo music video to accompany the track I’ve released under the Fields of Dawn banner during bowel cancer awareness month. I want to get the video finished, so it can do some raising awareness for bowel cancer before awareness month

Today’s post during bowel cancer awareness month is the chapter on my mum from my Lives & Times bowel cancer fundraising book. Mum sadly died of bowel cancer in August 2016, but lived to see the book published, and in fact shed a few tears when she saw it for the first time. Perhaps the only time
