Out side of my flat is a path and small area of grass and bushes. On the far side of the path and a street light type of light lighting the whole area at night really well and I have to say having the light there makes me feel safer at night. However, from time…

I know that my mental health is progressively deteriorating. Thoughts of suicide are dominating my day and I’m finding it harder to fight against those thoughts. The few people who do see me all seem to think I’m doing so well because I’m “doing thing” rather than sitting back and letting the world just pass…

I’m noticing a worrying development in myself! in recent months I have popped out to the public viewing area at RAF Waddington in the hope of seeing a few fighter jets. Sadly on both occasions I managed to see absolutely but that hasn’t deterred me from planning a trip to RAF Lakenheath in the next…

My Grandfather was a train driver back in his day. He worked for the old original L.N.E.R company and later for British Rail. In 1982 the rail network was at a standstill when the union ASLEF demanded a pay rise and instructed it’s members to strike. My grandfather didn’t agree with strike action saying it…
