I hop everyone has had a Happy New Year and festive period. I can’t believe this is 2022 and yet I can so clearly remember 1982! The summer of 2022 will see my 10 year anniversary of writing this blog and as I write this there have been 912,000 visitors to my blog which seems… Continue reading My Project for 2022

It’s not exactly rocket science nor brain surgery come to that!
I remember a few years ago as I waited with anticipation for a tourist who was going to be the very first to experience a brand new tour. I had offered to meet him at his hotel but he insisted that he was happy using the London Underground and that he was only 3 or… Continue reading It’s not exactly rocket science nor brain surgery come to that!
My first Remembrance Service at Bushey Memorial
Due to Covid, Sunday was the first opportunity I have have had to attend the local Remembrance Sunday ceremony at 11am as it didn’t run last year so despite having moved almost 2 years ago, this was the first time I got to witness it in person. I’d been to the memorial last summer and… Continue reading My first Remembrance Service at Bushey Memorial
Interview with Life’s A Show Writer & Director – Harvey Puttock
Last week I posted a short review and link to the comedy short Life’s a Show which I was fortunate enough to be given a preview too. Afterwards I got to chat to writer and director Harvey Puttock about the film. If you didn’t get the chance to see the film, you can do so… Continue reading Interview with Life’s A Show Writer & Director – Harvey Puttock
A swan-song moment of glory for Tilbury Fortress
I thought I would finish my little run of Tilbury Fort related posts but recalling its last great moments and some might say greatest of all, the night it shot down a Zeppelin in WW1. The Zeppelin was invented by Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin. It was a rigid dirigible and he patented his idea in… Continue reading A swan-song moment of glory for Tilbury Fortress

Oops, I did it again!
Just a short post today as I had something else planned and it wasn’t another reference to a Britney Spears song. As you may remember, my new book £xcluded Voices was released on Monday and within hours it reached number one in its Amazon section. I didn’t expect that in anyway as I know it’s… Continue reading Oops, I did it again!
My new book cover and blurb for my £xcluded Voices book.
I thought I would share the book cover for my upcoming new book. Everyone reading this will know I am one of the 3 million #ExcludedUK and tomorrow sees me start my 55th week of having no income or government support and whilst Shielding alone too. So rather than write a history book dealing with… Continue reading My new book cover and blurb for my £xcluded Voices book.
Living in a Slow Glass World
It’s been a rather surreal few weeks where I live, in an increasingly surreal year. It has been extremely dense fog for the most part as I write this for almost 2 weeks. It reminds me a little of the famous pea-soup fogs of old London in the Victorian times or 1950’s or indeed it… Continue reading Living in a Slow Glass World
My offering of Christmas goodies! Books and Video Tours
I must be the most useless blogger the world has ever seen at least when it comes to self-publicity. Here I am with a new book that came out at the end of August and I’ve never even mentioned it AND it is an official #1 best seller. If I ever had motivation or ambition… Continue reading My offering of Christmas goodies! Books and Video Tours
