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 :)

fully charged. How?

Hiyaaaaaaa!
I hope that you are well, and fate is treating you kindly. My blog, here goes…

I smile  because I am happy and content. The world is such a beautiful place. OK, everything should be considered relatively. Is beauty relative? Hmmm. What is beauty? 
Normality is beautiful. Something that most people consider to be normal should still be treasured because it is special for someone in the world. We don't know what we have got until it is gone. 
It is only from my injury experience that I have been able to learn to treasure things so much more. Humans must realise just how fortunate we are to be here, or having done so, experiencing life.

Hmmm, a nice thought for you to start this week. I feel well experienced in either composing text for a letter, or an email. If doing such, always start off with a welcoming sentence, maybe asking a question to try and immediately entice the audience. Then talk about something easy, before reaching the main intention of the communication. Finish on a positive note, ensuring that the reader is left with a ‘positive’.
Writing these blog posts is nothing like that. I just talk about whatever I want! Ramble on, and everyone listens!





Much as I love the Stereophonics, do they suit the cover? Hmmm, I am still undecided. Well worth a listen though.

Iconic Preston Bus Station was visited last weekend whilst visiting family.


Why do I type this blog?
I have a reason. I type this blog regularly, and i like to keep it 'live'. I could keep a diary, added to weekly, and perhaps turn it into a book, yearly. But no, I do not want to do this. An online blog, is a much greater option ecologically, and it allows my words to be distributed trans-globally, accessible by those who want. It cost's people nothing. Everywhere, it is of human choice whether to access, or not. I want to thank everyone who has visited my site. I sit and wonder...   

David Millar’s lone escape around the Champs Elysees, definitely deserves more respect from me.



I had a funny experience, earlier in the week. As I was near the riverside, on my way to work, I heard a voice shout at me from behind.
Do you think I could get past you?
She squawked, I laughed.
I laughed because I was highly amused by this old granny, who was zipping along in her scooter, behind me. I slowed, she passed and zoomed off! I despaired to myself, knowing that she is giving ’us’ a bad name. I class myself together with her as I need a powered wheelchair (whether she actually needed a scooter is debatable, but hey).
She frustrated me, I talk about it. I clip myself short before I cause trouble.


Everyone gets a positive charge from the sunlight :) !

Emit a positive vibe; maintaining existence, you will receive it!

I love the riverside. When sunny, I get fully charged (no caffeine needed)!
