On Thursday a good friend and I went to see Lucy Spraggan live at Manchester Academy.
We had a great time and Lucy was in great form. She also performed my favourite song of her’s balance:

Yesterday my good friend Simon and I went to visit The Druid’s Temple in Yorkshire. Not a real Druid’s temple, but a rather pleasant structure built around 200 years ago. The folly was built to give people jobs so that they could feed their families.

You asked in a poll I ran for a Zombie Story and I will deliver. Here are details of my new book:
The Z-Virus mutates people’s DNA. The majority of infected people become zombies, but a minority seem immune but the virus causes them to develop powers.
At first these powers like invisibility, telepathy and telekinesis aided survival. But as the Z-Virus continues to mutate, the powers become more and more destructive.
Forced with no other choice, one group goes in search of a cure. But will they survive the roaming zombie hordes long enough to make an epic journey across the country to find the cure?
Join Alexis, Vis, Chan, Luke, Natalie, Grace, Chloe, Kyle, David and Goliath on this journey in Z-Virus Powers, the first installment of this three part story.
Due for release: End of 2024.
This is my first foray into fiction. I’m really enjoying writing the first draft – it’s so much fun.
Write soon,
Antony
Vasculitis Facts
Vasculitis is a rare inflammatory disease which affects about 2-3000 new people each year in the UK.
Vasculitis UK – The Facts, last accessed: 07/05/24.
Vasculitis means inflammation of the blood vessels. Any vessels in any part of the body can be affected.
Vasculitis is an aggressive autoimmune disease where your white blood cells attack the small veins and arteries in a person’s eyes, nose, lungs and kidneys. The exact cause is unknown but a person is at higher risk of getting vasculitis if they have other autoimmune diseases such as diabetes.
There are different types of vasculitis including:
My ENT Consultant has referred me to a Vasculitis Specialist urgently as she is 99% sure that this is what I’ve got. I remember reading somewhere online that with one type of vasculitis the average life expectancy is 20 years from diagnosis. I’m 37 years old, which would mean my average life expectancy would be 57 years old if I have that type. Unfortunately I don’t know what type of vasculitis Doctors think I’ve got and the diagnosis isn’t yet confirmed.
Hope to have answers soon,
Antony
