I love the fact that the vido it has photos of our troops. I love the job that these brave men and women do for us, protecting people at home and abroad. And they are modern day heros so it is an appropriate song.

However, why do they have to sing one of my favouriate songs? Constantly XFactor contestants cover other people’s song. Can they not perhaps write one of their own?

Blog soon,

Antony

Christmas Cards

Hello All,

If you are pagan, you will know there is a lack of affordable Yule cards. I’m not sure if it’s because of it being a niche market or to do with pagans views on saving the environment.

Anyway, the majority of my family and friends are Christian and as such send Christmas cards.

I have got underway with my address book. I’ve found wonderful friends that for various reasons (distance, time, etc.) I only seem to communicate with once a year. It’s such a shame that these wonderful people, many of whom where a big part of my life have moved on, as have I.

Does this happen to you? I imagine it’s just part of life. People moving on.

Write soon,

Blast from the past & Eagle Eye

I recently had a message on facebook from a old school mate, talk about a blast from the past! It was nice to hear off the person in question, if not a little odd.

This is the thing about facebook, it allows all mannors of people from your past to get in touch with you. Some you would like and some you may not. Now whilst I don’t mind this person getting in touch, I have had others add me as a friend that I’ve chose to ignore. Sometimes you past is your past for a reason.

In other news…David and I went watching Eagle Eye this weekend. It was an action film about two people who were being instructed to do things for an unknown purpose. It was all action. The story line was weak and easily worked out. A film that is worth watching once to say you’ve seen – but not worth buying on DVD.

Tomorrow I am going to see The Feeling, so excited.

Mum, Heroin & Me – C4 Documentary

Last night I watched a documentary on Channel 4 called Mum, Heroin & Me. I seen young people and their families effected by substance misuse.

This documentary showed me the young person’s perspective that I was all to aware of. But it also showed in great detail the effect on the family and particularly the mother. When working on young people sometimes we can focus on them and give less focus to the families which also need support. I was reminded of what families go through listening to this particular mothers experiences.

If you want to see the program it is available on watch again at: www.channel4.com.

Have an ace weekend,

Antony
