Helping Ukranian Refugees in Romania with “Inima de Copil” (Heart of a Child) charity.

Romania is a country I’m very… Continue reading Helping Ukranian Refugees in Romania with “Inima de Copil” (Heart of a Child) charity.
Three special letters
It’s hard to believe that I am now in my second year of being Excluded without work, pay or any government support whatsoever.

Coronavirus Diary 72: Being a Good Samaritan to the living and having a hot drink with the dead.
One of the things I really miss about being Excluded and not able to work as well as Shielding alone is being able to help people. I really really miss it.

I met perhaps the most famous tree in the world at Sycamore Gap
If you think of how many trees are famous; there are quite a few of them but compared to the countless billions of trees on the planet they are really few and far between.

Walking Hadrian’s Wall For Cancer Research
A different sort of post just for a change. This week is the birthday of my Mother whose death occurred almost 5 years ago.

Rebuilding the Great Library of Mosul
Libraries are one of the hallmarks of civilisation, the availability of knowledge and ideas has been inherent to our progress as a species for thousands of years. The destruction of such knowledge is also an often repeated and always unforgivable crime of many a tyrant whether it be the destruction of the treasured Great Library of… Continue reading Rebuilding the Great Library of Mosul
