At some point in my early adult life things were stagnant. I went to work everyday, lived with my parents at home and every once in a while I would go out with friends - usually for a trip to the cinema. There was no relationship, no ambition, nothing except a savings account that got … Continue reading My Worst Year
My Adult Year
And so another year ends... To sum it up it has been a busy one. I thought I would sum it up through my health, creative, wealth and social life. Health This has been a particular let down. I don't feel like my fitness has really returned to form - I have not had as … Continue reading My Adult Year
All The Past Mistakes
Of all the past mistakes I have made in my life, I don't regret a single one because if I hadn't made them I wouldn't be who I am today. Don't live life with regrets, dwelling on mistakes or failures. The past is the past - so learn from mistakes and move on. The only … Continue reading All The Past Mistakes
My Own World
I had finished University and I thought "What do I want to do with my life?" I decided that I wanted to help people and took on a voluntary job for an environmental charity. It was interesting to see how unorganised the voluntary sector was. My job title where I 'worked' was called 'Campaign Officer' … Continue reading My Own World
Vegetarian FAQ
I am not really sure if I have mentioned my vegetarian diet (or probably more accurate - pescetarian diet), since my most recent post. It is something that always is brought up as small talk at any wedding/dinner party/funeral and I thought I would write about it. How long have you been a veggie? I … Continue reading Vegetarian FAQ
200 Posts Later… My Secret Is Out…
As I write this to mark my 200th post it seems fitting that as I sat in my new home the other day, the 'missus' quiet casually brings my blog into conversation. For those who are not aware - this blog is not something that the people in my real life are aware of. Its … Continue reading 200 Posts Later… My Secret Is Out…
Bouncing Souls: Better Things
If you have read this blog for a while you will know that I am a big fan of the punk band - The Bouncing Souls. One of my favourite songs by them is called Better Things.

Sorry About That…
I really think we say sorry too much. If I clash with someone coming out of the gents as I am going in 9 times out of 10 I hear "oh sorry..." Why do you need to be sorry? Isn't excuse me a more appropriate word? I couldn't help but think we say sorry too … Continue reading Sorry About That…
Good Mentor/Bad Mentor
As I try to make my way up the career ladder I have found the support of others is essential. I really do miss having a good mentor to coach me and call me out on any bullshit though. I have a number of experiences of 'mentors' - one was good, one was bad. Good … Continue reading Good Mentor/Bad Mentor
The First (and only) ‘Best Planner Signer’… 1997
It was the final year with Mrs Sutton as the teacher for form 9S. We had been with her since 5S (so four years). And as each year went by we gradually molded into one of the better class groups in the school. Next we would be in Year 10 and so we would be … Continue reading The First (and only) ‘Best Planner Signer’… 1997
When you least expect it
When I was younger and I had insecurities and self-doubt about meeting someone, my mum would always say "You only find love when you stop looking for it" Despite my young naive age - I thought that was bullshit. To find someone required some effort. As I spent time growing up and I experience rejection and … Continue reading When you least expect it
My Hell – 1 year on
It was almost a year ago when I was heading up for a crash and my life took a turn for the worse and I thought there was no escape. I even wrote a post about it called My Hell. I was truly in a sorry state - I was in no fit condition to … Continue reading My Hell – 1 year on
