Let’s face it: it’s not been a fun few weeks for those in the ‘actively pro-life’ camp.

Time for mandatory scream sessions
The other day I boarded a train, homeward bound after a weekend trip to Edinburgh. I settled into my seat, mask hanging haphazardly on my chin as I sipped my cappuccino, grateful for a few hours’ breathing space. But as the train rushed along the north-eastern coastline I soon found myself far from relaxed, but... Continue Reading →

5 things you may not know are New Age
Hello friends. I’ve had this topic in the back of my mind for a few years and finally(!) got round to writing something on it. This was kind of inspired by some research I’ve been doing lately about New Age in the Church, as well as things I’ve found out by accident about things I... Continue Reading →

This experience happened three years ago. I’m okay - sometimes you gotta learn the hard way. I just don’t want others to... Continue Reading →
Gospel of woke?
‘and the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made’ – Simon and Garfunkel I know I’m not the only one who found something to complain about during this year’s NYE firework show/dronefest. I know this because articles say others complained about it. It’s a relief to see that I’m not the only cynic out... Continue Reading →

So, they explained, children's book ‘Noah and the Nestling’ by Mary Williamson seeks to teach the value of human life to the very young. WP generously sent me a free copy, and being about to release... Continue Reading →
Exposing Priorities: Stay Home. Stay Safe … Go Kill Yourself?
There, I’ve done it. I’ve broken my vow of silence. I vowed never to openly discuss that dirty l-word, for I don’t like angry mobs. We’re all especially snappy and out of sorts these days. Best hide my opinions behind my probably-not-medical-grade surgical mask, and carry on. I’ve tried (and often failed) to do that... Continue Reading →
