EVERYONE HAS A VOICE – NEVER LET IT BE SILENCED.
Life is like a jigsaw puzzle in many ways. It can be confusing, often difficult, leaving you living on the edge, questioning why you’re here or what you’re doing. If anything, it only makes sense when you finish it and the whole map is set out before you.
I’ve been trying to work out mine for a few years now. It’s been an eclectic mix of disasters, people, triumphs and events, helping mould me into the person I am. It’s something I would never wish to change.
For me writing about my experiences and helping raise awareness of disability, is my way of filling in the pieces, it’s cathartic if you like.
Nothing is impossible in life, if you know what is before you, and you know yourself. Just keep the faith and you will be surprised where it takes you.

According to the church you technically had to be alive for them to be read but Father O’Donnell was more than happy to bend the rules and turn back the clock 300 years. As he discussed his game plan, I watched an army parachutist presumably on practice drill, spiral down to the ground at the […]

An eyesore to behold, he faced similar issues as me in getting rid of it and must have grown bored and irritated of people gawking at the growth.

We own our football club – and I couldn’t be prouder
I was at the Southend game on a very dank wet day, when Exeter City were consigned to the National League back in 2003. They would win one nil that Saturday in front of over 10k supporters who had jammed into St James Park (SJP), but it would end up being a very, hollow victory. […]
Best to know your onions when cooking Beef Wellington
So, the main piece of news that grabbed my attention last month for once, wasn’t the weather. Of course, it has a part to play in this story, but a smaller news item from Victoria, Australia and the deadly aftermath of a family dinner party – supposedly involving a Beef Wellington and a duxelle of […]
a jewel in the crown
Northumberland is the king of the wild frontier; a jewel in the crown; a place in England where nothing else can compare. From the seminal heights of Hadrians Wall with its uninterrupted views over the county – to its wild coastline dotted with castles, its a place I never grow bored of. I spent a […]
life’s a beach
I’ve always loved swimming, especially in the sea. The temperatures in the English Channel can make it a bracing affair but the benefits would always leave me invigorated. My disability and disease has never offered me any real remission but swimming offered a counter balance and a way to fight back both physically and mentally. […]

Without wanting to sound like a harbinger of doom as we approach the end of the year you could say the country and world is treading water. There’s a lot of political and economic turmoil up yonder and globally things seem just as uncertain. Inevitably, it has a knock on effect down here in our […]
