Hey everyone? How are you this morning? It's Thursday as I write and it is so close to the end of my annual leave. Has it been a productive few days? I would say yes! I have had the chance the rest and recharge while getting the chance to do something I wanted to do... Continue Reading →
After writing my last post, there has been progress, my good friends. I have managed to get this podcast off the ground and it is online ready for all for listen.

What do you get when you just listen when you walk on Camino...I guess you get silence...and a lot of the sounds of nature. This video has all of that. If you haven't walked the Camino, it is worth a watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4HOp9ZtMkg With thanks to Busybird Publishing on YouTube.
