A couple weeks ago I saw this on Instagram My immediate reaction was wow, that’s brave, followed by there’s no way I can afford that, hope others can. I went about my day/life but Sarah’s request stuck with me. I spent quite some time musing it since. There are loads of reasons why £10 a month … More Why I’ve adopted a craftivist for 2017
When applying for your Camino Credencial (a sort of passport/document to prove your legitimate pilgrim status) you’re asked to tick a box. Is your reason for pilgrimage: religious, cultural, tourism or sport. As ever in life I couldn’t decide, I’ve been musing since then why I walk, as we set off on over a hundred … More Why I walk #CaminoLB
This morning Chris shared that Kate died yesterday, surrounded by her loved ones. I’ve no more words than I offered in my last post, the comments and tweets discussing it clearly showed that Kate’s ripples spread far and wide. They will continue to do so. Think this is my favourite picture of Kate, snapped by the legend that … More Kate Granger – rest in peace #deathbedlive #hellomynameis
Going to try and keep this short. I’m struggling to find the words. 3 years, 10 months and 6 days ago, on 15 September 2012, I first tweeted about Kate Granger. I shared an article from The Scotsman, Dr Kate Granger, doctor and author living with terminal cancer I’d kept it open on my laptop for … More Kate Granger #deathbedlive #hellomynameis
This weekend I watched an old film Silent Minority recorded in 1981 (thanks Saskia and Sara for the tip off). It was filmed 25 35 years ago (thanks for those who noticed it’s even longer than I thought, by ten years), and yet some of the voiceover could as readily apply to what we’ve seen and … More Psychic families and prophetic consequences #JusticeforLB
The last blog post I wrote here was hastily tapped out on my phone from Heathrow Airport. Waiting to board a flight to Sri Lanka, a holiday long since planned for relaxing and recuperating after a busy year of campaigning. The (not in anyway unreasonable) expectation was that the #Mazars review would be long published … More ISO8601 and the #Mazars publication mystery
I’m not very good at waiting. I’m a new idea a minute, leap to action and just try and get on with something, anything to avoid the inertia kinda gal. This has proved incredibly challenging at many points in my life. It’s almost three years to the day since my Dad died and his parting … More Waiting, impotence and wilfully ignoring… in pursuit of #JusticeforLB
OK, quick blog post and quick request for your lazy Sunday evening/Monday morning/whenever you read this. The Human Rights Act is under threat, now I know very little about the law, but in my experience you don’t tend to know about the law until you need it’s protection. The Act for the Act campaign was established … More Act for the Act – it takes less than a minute! #ActfortheAct
I’ve spent the last fortnight in Oxford live-tweeting the inquest into the death of Connor Sparrowhawk – you can learn more about Connor here: You can learn about the campaign at JusticeforLB website and you can read the inquest happenings over on twitter @LBinquest. At some stage I’ll write about the inquest process, the amazingly … More Preventable deaths are not tragic #JusticeforLB
I’ve not blogged in an age, mostly because I’ve struggled to find anything positive to say. Anyone who has read this blog before will know that I don’t require myself to be positive (in fact I think society is obsessed with doing everything in it’s power to portray wonderful joy and happiness, especially on social … More Stitches of hope #JusticeforLB
