This week’s newsletter contains a few musings on gift-giving. And my quote of the past 7 days from a friend: ‘One step at a time, one heart at a time.’ Flic has a little anecdote about a recent gift exchange with a friend. The other day, I met a friend for a walk [...]

Weekly Words 10th April

This week we have a contribution from the lovely Issy, who so kindly has reflected on her experiences doing the Duke of Edinburgh’s ‘D of E’ scheme, which has enriched the lives of countless young people since Prince Philip set it up in 1956. I had a strange complex when I was younger [...]

Weekly Words 3rd April

The work I do on the Bow-Wowza side of things and children’s TV production has taught me just how important relationships are, not just for children, but for everyone.

Weekly Words 6th March

In 2019, I wrote a blog on ‘Time Is…’, reflecting on, well, what time is; in my case, often scarce! I read back on the words I wrote, musing over my long to-do list and the feeling of constantly playing catch up, and realise, with neither great amusement nor great dismay, that the [...]

Weekly Words 9th January

This year, one thing I want to happen is to practise more silence, and more listening. I don’t necessarily mean talking less (that’s unlikely to happen), but rather I want to experience more silence, and listen better. This world can feel so full of noise - TV, traffic, radio, intercoms, chatter. Being very [...]
