Due to the podcast's current host being unable to provide information on a recent technical issue, I'm going to move the show to a new host. Many thanks to Martin from the 3 Ravens podcast for his recommendations, hopefully the podcast's new home (when I get it set up) will prove more fruitful!

The human brain is extremely susceptible to suggestion, often influenced by our own focuses and beliefs. Today, I found myself wanting to get a cinnamon swirl for breakfast... #clouds #dawnsky #suggestion #foodie

While many would claim that the swaying light is evidence of a paranormal presence... I say I'm glad I was wearing a hard hat... #notparanormal #paranormalclaims

I also use a gadget for mixing, instead of ceramic bowl and wooden spoon, much to the disapproval of my mam!

Christmas cake traditions... anyone here got any they can share? I break with tradition with a topping of marzipan and choc, rather than royal icing...

I'm setting up a side project on Youtube, which will be episodes of me playing the horror-survival game SCUM. The game pits the player against the harsh environment of a desolated island, zombies and in some cases other players. There's room on the server for 9 others - anyone interested?

So a quick project update. I'm working on collating stories for the podcast and recording bits n bobs as and when I can. I've got elements of about 5 episodes nearly sorted, just trying to match stories with more investigatory episodes. I'm also overhauling the main website with a winter theme.

I can't remember the owl's name now. I drew that 12 years ago when I started my business up. I asked my then 5 year old daughter what she thought the logo should be and her response was an owl. So I photographed one at a nearby garden centre and drew it up as if it was a stone figure.
