Slow
Ah, slow…..a chance to stop and smell the flowers - but what does it all mean? So, Carl Honore is the undisputed king of the Slow movement by default - kind of. His book, ”In Praise Of Slow” is a manifesto to the movement, the antithesis of the fast paced, get it done, earn more, do more, consume more, be more movement.

A day trip….to Auschwitz
Ok, so guessing the title might have caught your attention - especially as I lived in Manchester, UK at the time. Lets backtrack a little….

A Musical History: 1983
And so to 1983 - I moved onto what was called a Foundation Course after my first year in Art School. This gave me some insight into the various areas of art and design, ready for me to choose a subject for my degree.

A country life for me
So, having found the dream cottage - what next? I can remember reading articles in the press about how the pandemic was changing peoples lifestyles and wants/needs as far as nesting was concerned. There was a shift to a slower way of life, and a demand for moves to the country.

A move to the country:
We’d been thinking about moving out of the city for a while, my current role allows me some freedom about where we end up - as long as I’m south of the city.

A Musical History: 1982
So, here we are at 1982—a year that I always credit with helping me become me. I've tried something different this time and for the rest of these posts—I'm giving you some personal background to the year, and listing the tracks and will be posting a Youtube link to the tracks there too.

I'm Coming Out...
This seemingly simple thing is a major life moment for around 10% of the worlds population (depending on which statistician you read) but either way, a large part of humanity has to deal with this in one form or another during its life time—it could be argued that they deal with it daily.

A Musical History: 1981
Following on from my trip down memory lane for 1980, now it's time to delve into 1981 and the gems this year produced. By this time, synth music had taken its hold and the charts were flooded with all kinds of versions, from the sleazy antics of Soft Cell to the pop antics of Adam & The Ants.

Bereavement
Let me start by asking you a simple, straightforward question: Can you identify a single event that came to define who you are today? Is there an event that happened to you or family or friends that altered you, altered the way you think or act? Take some time to mull over events in your life, your childhood, teenage years—events that may have happened during your formative years.

A Musical History: 1980
Following on from my recent piece about growing up in the 80s, I wanted to share my favourite music from each year in a series of posts. Going back like this, for me anyway, shows the progress of bands and artists in terms of sounds and success. It also shows how music adopts techniques and sounds and they become "mainstream" and a something else takes its place as the radical, new sound.

1980s Kid
You can’t fail to have noticed the renewed interest in 80s style. There does seem to be a continued fascination with the style and music of that time.

Do We Need Yet Another Hero?
It seems more and more celebrities and sports stars are coming out of the closet these days (some we may wish would stay in) — but it does lead you to ponder if we need them to?
