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 :)

Whatever happens...

- Key attributes
- More to love
- Public humiliation

...Whatever occurs, is supposed to occur.
Humanity will never truly know why, because we are not supposed to know why.

Six key attributes... 
All are linked, but separate too.
I believe that I am fortunate enough to be able to rely on six key, psychological attributes…




Determination. Be aware of, or be confident in knowing, what is rationally possible. Once identified, set it as a target. We know that it is possible, therefore we know that persistence will succeed!

Individuality. Everyone is different. Everyone will use different mental pathways, to solve a problem. Be proud. No-one else can work your brain!

Self-belief. Only you, truly know yourself. People may be very close, but only you know what you are capable of. Maintain this belief, only you can, only you know how.

Self-confidence. Partly linked to your self-belief, but these are the results, and how you use them. Look at your self-beliefs (you do have plenty, if you dig deep). Use these elements but maintain knowledge of restricting their use (always have keep some spare).

Creative thinking. Always maintain the knowledge that you can be creative. If faced with any sort of problem, your mind will naturally attempt to create a solution. Consider what you have done. Be confident in your ability to create solutions. Nothing is impossible.

Logical rationality. Keep your feet on the ground. Recognise that you are able to consider issues rationally, with logic. Whether we accept this, or not, we can all think rationally, else we wouldn't be here.

All six were developed together, and used during my design education. I have been able to rely on all six when cycling (even creatively-thinking, when feeling strong enough)! 

A recent song from Electronic-Dance legends... 



  • I am a Graphic Designer, but I have a heart too. It saddens me when I open my mailbox, and it is filled with ****.  Instant rubbish. 
  • It troubles me when I design something, that I realise what may happen to it. Work, must be sustainably produced. Recyclable material is a MUST. 
  • Oh, how it angers me when I discover PLASTIC incorporated in a flyer which is just instantaneous rubbish! 
  • There are creators out there, who don’t design, and who just don’t care to think. They deserve none of your business. Please, have a heart. 
  • Think.

Coffee. There is soooo much more to love than the drink, alone!
Coffee pods are nowhere near like ‘a cup of coffee’. Not only are their sustainable aspects, suspect, there’s more…
They exist, and are consumed by those who ‘just don’t make time for a real coffee’.  Caffeine addicts can also be aided by a can of Red Bull! They obviously don’t love coffee, they USE it.
Proper coffee lovers have more respect. Love is recognised, and sacrifices are made! Sufficient time will always be made, in order to have a perfect brew! Fast-food outlets are ‘High Street coffee chains’. Just as FastFood/Burger-chains took over 40/50 years ago (or more), now the fashion has changed. Do you need it, or do you love it?

I hang my head in shame.
I own up, publicly, here.
Muse released their album, last week ‘Simulation Theory’.
I have not listened to it fully, as I selected individual tracks to buy. This is the fist time ever that I buy music in such a ‘broken method’.


I was disillusioned when i downloaded my first album (Radiohead’s ‘King of Limbs’). I had all of my albums on CD (copied to MP3), but Radiohead are by far my favourites, so it seemed apt to take this progressive step.
Muse definitely should be considered ‘progressive’ too.
However I maintain that albums should be bought ‘as a whole’ set of songs. I must not allow this new purchasing-method to become a regular situation.

Lauren and Ellen
The two hospital staff who are ever-so friendly, always managing to set-me into a positive mood before my physiotherapy sessions. 
Thank you

Private car ban

About 85% (or more) of my journeys are made through using public-transport. I sit on a bus in a traffic jam, I ponder things. Some fellow passengers begin to get annoyed, which is fair enough. Fair enough, because I look at the traffic. Cars everywhere. Only one person-per car!
WHHAAATTTTTTT!?
I predict fairly confidently, when i see the end of motor-cars.
OK, I don’t drive, as i know of the harm that cars do to society and OUR planet, amongst a number of other reasons. Public-transport is the way forward, trust me.
No traffic jams, if we change attitudes by eliminating greed, and laziness.
Taxis, buses = yes. 
Cars with sole users = Not for much longer. 
Humanity will realise, eventually. 

Public humiliation of an evil ****! 
You've gotta love it!
After years of taking the British public for fools, and successfully causing such a mess, he faced a humiliation at 'work'!

Scroll down the page,
watch ‘Nigel Farage humiliation’!
