Home Again
Well I'm home again, if I can still call Glasgow home. I'm really not sure where home is at all anymore. I arrived at Heathrow Airport 2 days ago and sat for a couple of hours completely bewildered and not quite sure what to do with myself. It ...

Relos to the rescue

Reflections
Well it's almost the end of another year. I'm home in Glasgow for Christmas and I've been reflecting on not only the past year, but the past few years. I'm still enjoying work but I know it's not the path for me. I sense big changes coming in 2007, I'm ...
