Choose Life

CAPTAINS LOG: 30th December WELL, here we are people….a day and a half away from another new year. What will 2019 bring to you? Will you make New Year Resolutions you will forget by the time the month is over? Will they be new or the same ones you made last year but...

Whatcha gonna do….handcuff me> Blind me with pepper spray?

CAPTAINS LOG: 23rd December I am not a Grinch. Okay, I might be. A little bit. For the right reasons. Ish. It’s not that I don’t ‘like’ Christmas…I just don’t love it. And my ‘Pod Life Team’ just wanna break me…. I liked it once. I wasn’t born this way (which excludes...

Big Girls Don’t Cry

Captains log: 16th December DON’T they? I do. A lot. I am a profound and prolific crier. I can and often do cry over just about anything. I remember being in Clinton cards once and a song came on and I had to leave because it made me cry. The embarrassing thing about...

Opportunity Knocks

Captains log: 18th November WHAT if today was your Groundhog Day?  But, unlike Bill Murray in the film, you don’t get to make improvements or changes to your day?  What if the day you had today was the same day you would live over and over again? What will you think...

It’s Raining Men

Captains log: 11th November THERE are/have been some amazing men in my life and today, Remembrance Sunday, I will tell you about them. They are important to me for various reason. I either love them, loved them, admire them, am inspired and entertained by them but...

Baby, baby, baby

Captains log: 4th November 2018 I always thought I was little Miss Lucky Pants. I’d never had an ‘oh shit’ moment, in fact, I’d never even had the smallest of scares. I went through my twenties and early thirties thinking I was blessed. When I was 34 I discovered...

Who do you think you are?

Captains log: 28th October 2019 QUITE a few years ago I attended a Paul McKenna ‘thing’ in the arse end of nowhere that I like to call Birmingham, with 898 strangers. If that sounds specific IT’S because there was 900 of us and I was with my BFF. Anywhoooo, it was one...
