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 :)

...from nothing

A short post, as although cappucino accompanies, I  need to return home to do work.

 Lovers of Liam ahead of his brother, will disagree, but I may vote this song as the best Oasis song (originally released as a B-side, remember them)?

The Masterplan (click here)


My next note is simply another song. I was indirectly reminded of this new release, by hearing 'Baker Street' ( the original, by Gerry Rafferty) on television. My mind hears this famous riff, and automatically thinks of the Foo Fighters' wonderful version (also a b-side). However the band have just released a new album, starting with a beast... Something From Nothing (click here)



No chocolate plan failed!
I tried, I failed. I figured that I would be considered rude and impolite, rejecting gifts at Christmas. I also figured that as soon as a rule is broken once, it no longer applies. So, I can stuff my face!

Hmmm, I was bought the DVDS box set of the first two series, at Christmas. I am only part way through the first series, but I rate Homeland so highly. Does it make third in my list of all-time favourites?
Sopranos

....Homeland?

When I question myself. What have I done? I look around at friends partying on social media, but also people who I don't know, socialising in cafes. Where was I?
I sound rude, but honestly, no one can attempt to understand what I have lived through. No-one. 
Shit happens. My mind has come this far alone, I must keep self-confidence.

I can't help but smile 😄
I say all this, and it should be read positively. As you all know, everything can be viewed both positively and negatively. I have just reread above and panic that you read this in the wrong way. 
When I go about town, I may be viewed as always smiling! I am because I am happy, or 'more than content'. Smiling is contagious. Be Happy.
