Side roads
It's funny where ideas for a blog entry can start. Sometimes it's a real struggle to find a topic, (hence the sometimes long delays between posts) and other times I have a list on my desk blotter a mile long. Someone said something this morning about … [Read more]
Looking ahead
Having already passed the three score years and ten it has occurred to me several times of late that I have much more on which to look back than I have on which to look forward. I was reminded of this again today when I posted a picture on Facebook … [Read more]

Getting to know you..

Life without Marc
What a bizarre MotoGp season it has been so far. COVID has had all sorts of effects on the calendar, the inability of spectators to attend the races, the heath scares that have concerned the paddock and the general uncertainty that has been evident … [Read more]
