In this penultimate blog in the series, I’ve picked something to represent my journey back to health relayed in a series of posts over the last six years. 2013 was the big year and my first blog post in which I came out on having diabetes explains some of the feelings I had at the time. […]

There were about twelve of us ranging from slightly awkward pre-teens (that includes me) and a few boisterous teenagers. It was my second solo holiday; the first had started from Llangollen on the day England won the World […]
We are being rather inundated by memories of England winning the 1966 World Cup with the 50th anniversary falling yesterday.

(Paid parking there or free parking along the road to the east) The initial walk is open to all, and requires no more than trainers / sneakers and […]
Up to North Wales today for a series of meetings on SenseMaker® development and the start of an exciting new project on governance of which more in a few weeks time. Now my view at the moment is that if I have a meeting in Bangor I am going to find times for the […]
