What are your top 10 travel destinations? In addition to my day job as a barrister, I love to travel. The question, I assume, is based on where I have been to date. So, I shall ignore the 3 Ms, of which two are already in my the diary for 2027, being the Maldives andContinue reading “OMG!”

None of us is born intolerant…
What is your favorite quote? AGAIN, too many to mention, from Mandela to Maya Angelou and many many more in between. However, one that I cite in my work is: “None of us is born intolerant of those who differ from us. Intolerance is taught and can be untaught.” No explanation is needed. Res ipsaContinue reading “None of us is born intolerant…”
No!
Not everything happens for a good reason!
What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?
by Ryan Clement Today’s daily prompt was, “What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?” which, for me, is an impossible question to answer because there are so many. However, I answered by cheating – I chose three songs! Then I remembered two more (songs), but was locked out, so l created myContinue reading “What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?”
Friends!
What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever? Obviously, there are too many to mention. But ‘That’s what friends are for.’ ‘Friends will be Friends,’ and ‘You’ve got a friend’ (MJ version) There’s an obvious common theme.

History
What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger? To be blunt, I found history lessons at school boring and irrelevant. The lessons were overly descriptive and bore little to no relevance to current times. Now, I love history and often refer to it in order to make sense of many eventsContinue reading “History”
Work Hard & Believe in Yourself
What’s your top tip to be successful in life? I know this sounds like a cliche, and in many ways it is. But there is no rule – as far as I am aware – that says a cliche cannot also be true! Work hard and believe in your own goal. That doesn’t mean thatContinue reading “Work Hard & Believe in Yourself”
Back to the Future!
Describe something you learned in high school. I learned that unless one’s future is so ‘obviously’ predetermined, the interest and behaviour of an 11 to 16 year old kid are not necessarily an indicator of the adult to follow. One of my teachers could not see ‘me’ beyond my interest in football (soccer) ⚽️ andContinue reading “Back to the Future!”
Travel writer
What job would you do for free? This is easy for me. I would be a travel writer. I get two for the ‘zero price’ of one. Travelling and witnessing other cultures and traditions would enhance the writing, and the writing would enhance how I see and engage in new cultures and traditions. It’s aContinue reading “Travel writer”
