Hand Written Letter

Despite living in a modern era, I like the feeling of holding a fountain pen and using it to scratch ink on a fresh piece of paper. I write letters and I love it. I have a number of people that I write to on a, not so, regular basis mainly in the UK but …

1 year, 2 months and 25 days later…

It, indeed, has been 1y 2m and 25d since I last published on here. That's 451 days.  Bloody hell 451 days of going AWOL in this space. I am back now and I will continue to post. One thing that has revived my thoughts in continuing to write is BBC - The Big British Asian …

Achievement Award for 2012

The desire to succeed in life has always been the fire or flame inside me.  No matter what it is, how trivial it is – I have the desire to succeed.  Those who know me spend their time around me and who generally come in and out of my environment will be all too familiar …
