Welcome to my blog. It varies how regular I write posts here. 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 :)

BE ALARMED - 'Friendly National Socialism'...?







March 2024 resulted in 10 months in a row, of record heat

The above sentence has headed my ‘list of notes’ for over a month. I am not wanting to scaremonger, I do want to share news items which I find, feel important, but fear are not heard, or are ignored by people.





copernicus

Britain has selfishly chosen to leave the EU, but international, global, and scientific facts will ALWAYS EXIST, affecting everyone! Copernicus describes itself… 


'EUROPE'S EYES ON EARTH

Looking at our planet and its environment

for the benefit of Europe’s citizens'

.… To maintain the increase, following March, the latest

April 2024 was the warmest ‘April’ on record

Regular viewers may recognise a changed layout to this blog. I quickly adapted this, fairly spontaneously, I hope that it is OK. I guess that the ‘page-view count’ will tell me how successful it is!


The sunshine of recent days may be cited as an influence, but honestly it was hearing a Miles Davis track on 6music, further investigation, and contacting my uncle (big Jazz enthusiast),  Miles Davis was added to my collection.

I have a psychological issue with purchasing music (I always have done so). I refuse to use Spotify, and I really don’t like purchasing off iTunes.

My next addition to my ‘Jazz’ playlist was made this morning on bandcamp.com

John Coltrane




The duet that I heard on 6Music, struck me...


Kind of blue - Davis & Coltrane


Stats

The most recent couple of months have resulted in over a thousand page views. It pleases me a great deal, that it is viewed all around the globe. 


The news I found today, alarmed me!


Be alarmed

Be VERY ALARMED!!

So, we may have thought that at least a couple of generations has passed since the age of German National Socialism, but now they try and get away with it by calling it

‘Friendly National Socialism’? 

This is another step along the world’s very perilous path, which was initiated by such a dangerous, selfish Brexit. We disabled the security of Europe. Now we see the defiant rise of power-hungry, right wing leaders throughout the entire world.
