I’m not sure about what I’m doing here – I want to post details of my latest books and get a link back to here to boost sales. Well, I thought that would be easy, now I’m not so sure. I’ll give it a day or two to see if I get any feedback and […]

After two super weeks on holiday up in Yorkshire – Tour de France was fantastic – I seem to be way behind with my writing work. I can’t believe we are half way through July and I have only just got my latest novel to the publisher, Createspace, for approval after spending the winter months […]

Our youngest member of the family, Sienna, is two years old and she loves her books no matter where she happens to be. As soon as she arrives with us, out comes the book bag and onto Granddad’s knee for a story. I just hope that somewhere along the way this love is not lost […]

We have some lovely grand kids and from time to time I get a really good photograph. The one below I used on our family calendar for 2014 with the caption – ‘HOW ABOUT A KISS COUSIN’ – Harlo is on the left and Sienna on the right. ‘Put it into a baby competition’, said […]

This is a quite by accident photo that gets people talking. Not being a very patient photographer I just have a simple, Canon digital camera which I point and shoot from time to time. This is one of the oddest results so far.

My admiration, and understanding, of new technology got greater yesterday. I flew from Cancun to Playa del Carmen along the beautiful Caribbean coastline with my grandson piloting. Fantastic! And even more so when you know that I was sitting at home in Market Harborough. What an experience.

I spent hours yesterday and another three today – why, to get rid of that stupid ‘VIRUS’ named ‘snap.do’ which when it gets a hold it’s a devil to get rid of. It puts up its own tool-bar and comes up telling you your disc space is low and you must do this, that or […]

A great example of brotherly love. 

We drove cross-country from Leicestershire into Nottinghamshire one day last week. Once again, it struck me what an under-rated county Leicestershire is. The rolling fields, gentle hills & valleys; the small, unspoilt villages, and the tucked into the scenery farm buildings, all add to its beauty. I lived here for many years, working and bringing […]
