Because not all of us want to wear beige…
I think we can tell what this blog is going to be about, can't we? I've woken up this morning to the news that the orange one has bombed Iran... I haven't written for a while, to be honest; I haven't been in the mood. My mental health has taken a dip after a series… Continue reading Two Tribes – Carnage Mix
Those of you who are of a certain age might remember this track. Perhaps the finest track on Scoundrel Days... This song held a lot of meaning for me when I was younger, and I never really understood why. Now, nearly forty years after its release, I think I know why... I tried to talk… Continue reading The Weight of the Wind
Two blogs in quick succession means I have a lot to say, right? Maybe... This one is probably just more of an update than anything useful or thought provoking to be honest. Shall we dive in? Family Some of you will know that I am surrounded by cancer. Both my parents have cancer as does… Continue reading Ordinary World
Right from the start this has a trigger warning. This blog is going to talk about self-harm. So if that's not for you, then please scroll on. No hard feelings. I promise! First things first; self-harm, for me, is not just about the obvious. The teenagers who are suffering from existential angst. It's so much… Continue reading Hurt
This blog has been in my head for 15 months. It's going to cover topics around sex, fantasy and other things which some people might not want to read about. This is your chance to step away... If not? Then let's go on a magic carpet ride... I need to start by saying that I… Continue reading China Doll
I am on a roll, another blog in less than a week; and another one that really needed to get out of my head. This one is potentially one of the hardest ones that I have birthed, but my CBT sessions are making me think more about how I react to events around me. The… Continue reading Just leave me alone…
This blog has been literally haunting me for a few days now. It's kept me awake for two nights, and as much as I am trying to fight it, it's time for it to be birthed, so to speak. You know that I am on a roll with these song titles. This could be one… Continue reading Changes
I am sitting here on a Friday afternoon trying to think about what I want to talk about. Not usually an issue, but today inspiration isn't exactly flowing through my veins. It's been a while since I've flexed my writing muscle, but it's also been a mad couple of months, both personally and work-wise. Probably… Continue reading Motorcycle Emptiness
It's been a while again, right? What was supposed to be a place to dump my thoughts has become like a graveyard of late. But that is ok. I feel like I am waking up again, I don't know if this is good news or what! Back in November, I wrote about wanting more. I'd… Continue reading Enjoy the silence
Can it really be four months since I last blogged? I think it can - and there is no shame in that. Life has been doing its usual thing of kicking me in the bollocks sometimes, except I don't have any, but you get the gist, right? So what has been happening? Well, my dad… Continue reading What the hell is going on around here?
