A notable step for October is the start of themed months for the work I do at the YMCA. I’m actually hoping the theme itself will be of benefit to life beyond the YMCA but it’s a good base to start. The theme for October is Freedom and Slavery. It’s fitting for a number of […]
Read More October – A Month In PreviewSo that was the September that was. My sister Ruth turned 31. My father turned 74. My mate and mentor Hughie turned 45. Far too many birthdays in this month and just when I thought it was safe to get away from the birthdays October will see my brother turn 29 and my best friend […]
Read More September – A Month In ReviewThe other day I was out with a friend and while we were walking I noticed this advert. Now I’m not in the business of advertising products and I’m glad this ain’t the BBC or I’m sure I’d be censured for bringing this up. Anyway I took a careful look at what the key line […]
Read More Rubi-con and Dancing MackerelThis man is Pip Wilson. He’s a hombre highly regard in YMCA circles and has been doing training to people on the edge for ages. He is of the belief that he is beautiful and so are you. He’ll go as far as to say so on a stage. Which is cool. To enter into […]

Tonight is the Sabbath evening and I’ve got back from a prayer meeting that was excellent, exhilarating and ultimately exhausting. I have to confess sometimes in my tiredness I can be somewhat irritable, so it took […]
Read More Songs from YesterdayI actually love writing. Unlike the painter/artist who finds their delight with a canvas or piece of paper and crayons, paint brushes or whatever, I get my thrills from expressing my thoughts on paper in the written word. When I think about it on a roll there are so many thoughts actually worth writing that […]
Read More Songs from my FatherI don’t hate my image, as in the photo you see at the side when you access the blog, but I have for a while considered a change. My friend recently took this photo of me and it was just right. I don’t know how to change the photo from the image that it’s on […]
Read More Da Nu Man CD (kinda)Intransigent. What a word. Apparently it means refusal to budge or as the wordnet.princeton dudes put it adamant: impervious to pleas, persuasion, requests, reason; I was thinking about that word and its relation to God. I live in a society that wants things its own way. We want to watch our own kind of programmes […]
