In this episode of My COVIDiary I think about the joy and sense of unity music festivals create, then ponder the worrying behaviour of some of our over-zealous Covid Cops...

IN this episode of COVIDiary, a confession of an evil crime committed by your host, a quick glance at politics and an ode to old friends. Thanks to Freesound for sound effects from Featherstar - the cockerel, Yemi Moses - digging, BlueDelta - thunder, Breviceps - owl hoot, Micron Mark -creepy stabbing music. 

IN this episode I force myself to look back at the news - even though I know it will be grim.

It's one of those collections that can see you through times like this...

IN today's episode I challenge my own thinking on the politics of the world... Moi? Wrong? Maybe...(except for that one time back in the eighties during an argy bargy with my sister).

IN today's episode of My COVIDiary we are back to the usual format! Reflections on a family trapped between four walls and the never ending controversy in the news...

In today's diary, I talk about the difficulties of a wandering mind when our lives are on hold and examine my feelings on home. Where is it? Where should it be? How is it defined?

In today's episode I talk about one of the UK's better employers, give a nod to conspiracy theories and realise just how much I look forward to podcasting. 

In today's diary, I think about how our policing is changing and wonder if a university education for police officers is a wise decision. Is it really so bad for a corner shop to stock Easter eggs right now? 

A week after Lockdown UK and I'm longing for my old life back. How to keep busy? Baking? Reading? I miss EVERYONE.
