Autumn
We’re nearing the end of October, the clocks are going back an hour and once again I find myself trying to adjust to a new routine. I always used to be an early riser. When I started working full time in my late teens I’d usually be waiting for the 7:00am train, wide awake and…

Summer…
Back in 2015 I rediscovered cycling. Truth be told, I became a little obsessed with it. What started out as a desire to get a little fitter and improve my health became an all-consuming obsession that saw me take on 100-mile rides around south Wales and south-west England. I then really leant into it and…

Physical Media
This past year I’ve been doing something I didn’t think I’d be doing again. After getting rid of all of my CDs, DVDs, books and anything else that wasn’t bolted down, I’ve been re-buying many of them. Whilst streaming can be great for discovering things you might have missed, it’s all too easy for an…

Music in 1991
I’m going to show my age now, but 30 years ago a raft of really important albums were released. Music, like most forms of art, can transport us back to what was probably a simpler time and for me, 1991 was a much simpler time –apart from the existential horror that is puberty. However, the…
