How many times have you heard that statement? Surprisingly it wasn’t a statement I heard very often growing up, or at least I don’t remember it much. As a teenager, things changed dramatically as I moved out into the wider world. I was the quiet kid, the one nobody really noticed, at least not atContinue reading “Ya gotta learn to walk before Ya can run!”

How hard can building a wall be?
I learned the hard way

I can remember as a kid walking past a building site near to where I grew up. It wasn’t anything special really, just a site where they were putting up a couple of houses.

  I have to admit, this week, as I thought about sitting and writing this blog I’ve been trying to think of a name for it, or rather a theme.

Before we get into this week’s post, I want to say I’d intended to post this last week, but circumstances intervened, and I suppose in a way it took us to a destination in the post that I wasn’t intending to go to, so in a way, it was an ‘off route’ Having said that,Continue reading “Off Route”

I have to be honest, I’ve wanted to write something this week, but with the events in Christchurch on Friday, it’s been really hard to think of anything else! The events down there have shaken everyone to their very core, and you’re beginning to see real anger that such a horrific act was perpetrated inContinue reading “Men of every creed and race.”

Ever watch those old vintage vehicles? You see them around, looking so majestic on the roads, their owners driving sedately, literally looking as if they ‘own’ the road.
