Last night I dreamt that I was waterskiing off of the fin of a Great White shark….I haven’t watched ‘Jaws’ in years so where did that one come from? Dreams – so vivid in the moment yet escape from our minds more often than not within the blink of an eye. Messages from our subconsciousContinue reading “Why Are my Dreams Getting Stranger??”

Should I Get A Pet Pt III?
Welcome to the final instalment to my pet chronicles. And I’ve saved my favourite to last, because yes like my parents I do have favourites, and mine are the loveable, huggable cats and dogs!

Should I Get A Pet?
Growing up, my house was one animal short of being the 21st century’s answer to Noah’s ark. From terrapins to budgies, fish to cats and dogs, and even the occasional earthworm and snail, it’s fair to say that my parents were pretty open to the idea of having their house destroyed by their adorable childrenContinue reading “Should I Get A Pet? “
Poem: A Parent’s Love
A Parent’s Love Embers of amor engulf us as you touch my face once more. Held in your arms as closely as the day on which I was born. You have loved me from the moment my heart began beating. A childhood spent with you, If only time could be repeated. Although I will growContinue reading “Poem: A Parent’s Love”
Animal Instincts
If you could choose to be any animal in the world, which would you choose to be? This thought sprung to mind as I watched my sister’s cat lick her wounds in a state of a pure delusion. The 5 year old tabby was shell shocked moments after being bitten in the spine byContinue reading “Animal Instincts”
City life
Like mice, Trapped in the rat race. A maze made for manipulation. Man against man, race against race. A breath. Of fresh air at dawn. As futile as asking the sun to, Rise at dusk and set in the morn. Private, A word less chosen. Only by those of land un-citied. Cities keepContinue reading “City life”
Day Trip – Woburn Safari park
Zoos are pretty dichotomous places. Good for their conservation of an endangered breed yet bad by preventing an animal from living in its natural habitat. Many more pros and cons come into play when determining whether there is a need for a zoo or not. But I’ll keep that discussion in the pipeline, for todayContinue reading “Day Trip – Woburn Safari park”
Poem: Ocean
The ocean hugs the shoreline like a mother does her child. Waves crash against the coastline as the stars above collide. A million lightyears away, do planets exist like mine? Why does it matter anyway? For it’s Earth where I reside. The sunlit sands so soft to touch, as Mr Sunshine beams his smile,Continue reading “Poem: Ocean”

Prepare To See A Camel Race!
Standing in a field in the blustering weather on a Monday afternoon in Northaw, you’d forgive me for doing a double take at the sight of a bright-eyed, beige- bodied spitting camel come hurtling down the hill, with the jockey in tow gripping onto the camel’s moulting mound for dear life. Yes, cheltenham eat yourContinue reading “Prepare To See A Camel Race!”

Psychology Test – Are You A Dog Or Cat Person?
Walking into the ExCel London yesterday afternoon I couldn’t help but think to myself – this place is a canine lover’s paradise and feline lover’s Hell! The event I was attending at the East London event was the annual ‘Discover Dogs’ extravaganza.
