Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. A line from the hypothetical commencement speech, “Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young”. You may know it better as the Baz Luhrman song, “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen“. This line resided with me this week in particular when I was thankful for many of […]
The Road To Glory
It was just your average Thursday morning, as we drove out of our estate. We were listening to Radio 1, nothing out the ordinary and in the back of my mind I was thinking of what I had to achieve, once I was in the office. I noticed a number of cars parked up at […]
Time Scales
Time as I am regularly reminded by others, is purely a human construct. A way for us all to contextualise change. Personally as long as I can remember I have been a ‘date’ guy. Linking events in my life, with music (every film needs a soundtrack) but also by global events, usually of the sporting […]
Going Postal
Generally I have kept my political views offline, but for the upcoming EU Referendum, we all have a choice. Perhaps the biggest opportunity to shape the future of our great nation for generations to come. Will we make use of the opportunity? However I am surprised by the lack of interest in not just my […]
On The Ladder
Alongside getting married, getting on the property ladder are one of those life milestones. You truly have arrived in the world as an adult if you have a mortgage to pay and henceforth a little piece of land to call your own. Before I go into the main feature, let me start with a brief […]

The best days are impromptu days out, planned only the night before. We decided to make the most of the weather on Bank Holiday Monday and headed over towards Bedfordshire and the Woburn Safari Park. Our original plan had been to go to the Paradise Wildlife Park but the website was not working and not […]

EDL in Slough
I heard about the march at the start of the year and conveniently planned to be in Wycombe on the proposed day of the march. Unsure why Slough in particular was chosen but there was a heavy police presence around Salt Hill Park as I drove down Stoke Poges Lane heading to the M4 and […]
Movember Again
Last year when I joined the annual Movember movement for the first time, the decision was at the eleventh hour. I decided to join around 30th October, mere days before the start of November. Roll forward twelve months and this year I am better prepared and taking part with fifteen colleagues. Generation donations to “CA […]
Dancefloor Nostalgia
Back in July my friends planned a trip down to the seaside to visit the O2 Academy in Bournemouth. The dance venue, formerly known as The Opera House was hosting the final night of Slinky before the global dance brand closed its doors for good. While the date for the first weekend in October, seemed […]
