Welcome to my blog. I post on this, roughly once a week (it does vary). I sustained a 'Traumatic Acquired Brain Injury', and a six month coma from a 'road traffic accident' whilst cycling, in October 2006. I spent the following 4 years (22-26yrs old), in a combination of hospitals and rehabilitation homes. Now, I have been living independently in Surbiton, England since October 2010. This blog begun life in December 2010, as i realised that there are many people worldwide that i want to share experiences with. I know that, as a wheelchair user, I am obviously not as mobile as i wish, so, use the internet to connect to you. I enjoy letting my thoughts represent through type. I type honestly. As numerous readers, as well as email recipients, will understand, I find typing to be very therapeutic. Thank you :)

Ciao Ciao!!!

English.
Don't worry, I am not typing in a latin language...
... (I'd love to be able to but that means learning from a very base knowledge, so no)

I won't bore all to tears (hopefully). I have made hardly any notes this week. I want to share my joy, exclaiming that I have sold five prints! Below, is a shaded image of these pictures.


In order from top, left to right:
- 'Patrick's Vanilla Sky' was a photograph taken in October 2012, of the sky above the River Thames, facing south-west. The image was printed in 3 parts, on three small (20x30cm) boards, which when positioned together, complete the sky.
-'Birds' was developed on a larger board (100x60). The evening photograph  was taken  Thames-side by Kingston, facing back down towards Hampton Court. A good number of birds, allowed for an iconic photograph. Taken in the 12/13 wintertime.
- The first print I sold (by The Press Room), was an enhanced photograph of iconic, art deco classic, Surbiton Station.
-The Olympic Road Race winner, was Dutch World Champion, Marianne Vos, photographed here just before entering Kingston Market Place, in the 2012 Olympic Women's Time Trial.
- Bradley Wiggins was just too fast for everyone, in the 2012 Tour de France, confirming it through his Olympic Time Trial in Kingston.

All images are still available, and can be resized (to suit your wishes),

I have to update you all. There is no strict 'coffee limit' to follow any more. I was limiting to two per day, but Tuesday, 'forced me to break the rules'. I was bought a coffee, whilst selling some of 'my art', accepted. I was then given a black coffee, before my physiotherapy session (ensuring I was alert), accepted. I then was bought a 'FlatWhite' accompanying lunch with my mum, accepted. OK, I have been very lucky. It allowed me to view the topic sensibly. Coffee is a drug. It is ok, but should be drunk with care!!!
