In the UK during the Georgian period (1714-1830) it was fashionable for the rich and famous to attend events held in London’s Pleasure Gardens. It was in some respect the start of commercialised leisure whereby tickets were sold at prices that only those with a disposable income could afford. One might assume that only those […]
Paul Weller’s music has been played at least once a week for the majority of life from the age of 15. He wrote songs that reflected what was going on in my life at the time, mainly through manufactured association I admit. I guess that is the same for most people, every song on the […]
This post contains information relating mental health issues associated with bullying, isolation and circular thought issues. I am currently trying to support a number of my team remotely that are experiencing mental health issues. I have no medical experience in these matters, however, I understand we are all different and I do know my […]
Missy recently posted a very open and honest piece on her relationship with food over the years.

The main thread was that there is still not enough evidence to conductively map a person’s sexual fantasy to the reasons behind it. So before you go off and spend a load of money on […]
I read with interest, being naturally nosey, a further account of 50 things you (probably) didn’t know about ‘Tall, Dark & Dominant’ in his latest post of the same name. What struck me was the similarities between us, which I admit is just down to basic probability. However, TD&D is from America and I, the […]
I have been fortunate enough, at an early age, to have mentors in my life. Not just people who tell you stuff or instruct you; I am referring to people that give something of themselves whilst at the same time impart wisdom and support you. My first real mentor was my father, who from a […]
I am currently working at a hospital in a non-medical related position. It’s very odd at first being in such a place when you don’t really need to be there. Not necessarily a fraud, but certainly out of place feeling quite well! As for the sick people, well there are loads of them cluttering up […]
