Last September I blogged about a search that we had in Tycroes in West Wales. According to the BBC the case just reached court. Some of the things in that article are quite rough to have to read. The violence with which he beat her seems unbelievable given that while we were searching it rapidly became […]
I’ve got a route which I run. Not every morning – and especially not at the moment. Right now, if I ran that route in the mornings, by 9am I’d be collapsed in a heap of sneezing, runny-eyed, hayfevered mess. Pollen count si very high – kinda gets in the way of life really. Anyway, […]

So much has happened recently… I’ve not really been responding with the First Responders recently because of something that happened to me that has caused huge repercussions through my whole life – my car died.
