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 was very pleased with myself last night, as I turned 4 lines of lyrics that I had about checking poo into a complete song. Well tonight it really has taken shape and I’ve made excellent progress and it’s sounding good! Guitars and bass all done with a guide drum rhythm beat, which basically leaves

When it comes to fundraising ideas, they usually come to me in an instant and I act on them impulsively. During bowel cancer awareness month I knew that this was a strong possibility. So, today I’ve decided to write and record a new Fields of Dawn music release Check Your Poo! to raise funds for

April is bowel cancer awareness month, and I make no apologies for upping the bowel cancer content to all my social media outlets for the next 30 days. Pretty much 10 years ago to the day Mum was diagnosed with bowel cancer. She was 76 years young and over the next four and a half
