by Ryan Clement I HAVE VISITED many SeaWorlds and similar places before. But none compares to Oceanogràfic in Valencia. It was informative and educational, as well as amazing. It was another warm day in Spain’s third largest city, so the feeling of being at or around the sea gave me a sensory cooling effect inContinue reading “Oceanogràfic 🌊🐢🐠🐬🐳🐧🌊”

Central Market
by Ryan Clement I DON’T HAVE fond memories of markets and marketplaces because I had to pull the shopping trolley on a Saturday morning along North End Road, Fulham, London.

Holy Grail
by Ryan Clement “Then he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant…’” Matthew 26:27-28 MANY MANY YEARS AGO, I was in Rome over the Easter period.

Coexistence!
by Ryan Clement IT’S OFFICIAL! Coexistence of the old and the new can and does work. I already knew that, of course, but needed a title for the short series of blogs.

It was a sunnyContinue reading “Like Father, Like Son”
Menopause Policy 2
by Ryan Clement YESTERDAY, I wrote about the need for organisations to have a Menopause Policy. There is a lot of good information out there to form the basis of an organisation’s Menopause Policy. And this policy is a must! To still not have one is a serious omission or error of judgment. THE ACCOMPANYING VIDEO speaksContinue reading “Menopause Policy 2”
Menopause Policy
by Ryan Clement A VERY GOOD FRIEND OF MINE with whom I shall soon be collaborating on a couple of interesting projects – 👀 so watch this space 👀– reminds us, rightly, to know our work policies.
