Loving Life
It astounds me that the world is idle as the children of Gaza starve. As Albo state so succinctly this morning, 1 year olds are not Hamas. Of course they are not they are the sight of innocence. The world has to stand up and shout in the loudest voice possible that it has to […]
Continue ReadingPlato said ‘Only the dead have seen the end of the war.’ I can see the storm clouds on the horizon, war is just around the corner. Lets spell it out, Ukraine and Russia are at each others throats, with Russia massing troops now on Europes and NATO’s boarder near Finland. Will Nato come to […]
Continue ReadingLife is an interesting journey. It knocks you down, and you have to drag yourself up again. I have had a few health issues lately with a kidney stone. I am up to stint number two and it has been unpleasant to say the least. I have been feeling really low and unhappy about the […]

As you can guess there was a motivation or two behind the trip. The first and foremost was to see the Carol Jerremns’ exhibition […]
