It seems like a long time since I posted a personal update on this my personal blog. So I’m delighted to take some time to update you on things. First of all, I’m delighted to say that I am doing well health-wise. In the second half of February I had some brief skirmishes with flu […]
Read More Dryden Update – MarchThanksgiving is a beautiful thing. Truly a beautiful and wonderful thing. Today has been a great example of that. I have had the privilege of working under a particular organisation over the last year or so. These folks have been brilliant.

Read More Another Thing About Being DadDublin, Ireland. Quaint city. It was the first time that any member of my family had touched foot in Ireland. It was a pleasant experience for the girls who especially loved St. Stephen’s Park. They loved the swans, they loved the waterfalls, they loved the greenery, they loved the statues – they loved the park […]
Read More Dublin Gets DrydenisedSo as you know it was me birthday the other day and what a wonderful time it was too.
