Filled with envy seeing a @RannochNews R10 on route to its next adventure! One day!! #oceanrowing #adventure

Maybe still a little bleary eyed but post weights circuit pre cold water swim. Plus getting a good dose of morning light as it arrives to support my #circadianrhythm. Wins all round ❤️ #getoutside

Most of us listen to reply, listen with something on our mind, listen with pre-conceived ideas about someone or something. When we truly listen we let go of all that. Our mind is silent. We listen without judgement, without bias, we just listen. When this…lnkd.in/e9dq9qS

The CEO of Astra Zeneca says we need MORE new drugs at Cambridge Union debate. I say NO! It’s Big Food and Bad Pharma corporate greed combined with systematic political failure that has brought the #NHS to its knees m.youtube.com/watch?v=SLaHCE… #SaveTheNHS
