The Oil Depot Explosion That Rocked My Home And Brought Me Inner Peace
On Sunday morning, 11th December I got up early. I like sitting down to write when the house is still quiet, before day light glides over the hills and the silence of the night is chased away by the hectic activities of the day. There is something delightfully creative about those early hours for me and I was keen to finish another instalment of a piece I am writing called '7 Steps to Inner Peace and Personal Power in 2006'.

Serengeti Migration
The Serengeti Migration In 1996, I went on a safari to the Serenegti National Park, Tanzania, to see lions. We saw a big pride of lions, but what was most impressive was the 'migration.' We were on the Serenegti short-grass plains, and as far as the eye could see were wildebeest, with the odd zebra family mingling in the massing herds. The view was framed by the Ngorongoro Crater to the South, the Gol Mountains to the East, and the Moru Kopjes to the West. This was in late March, and the wildebeest herds were massing on the short grass plains for the long trek North to the Maasai Mara in Kenya. ...

Surrounded by the gentle rolling English countryside, it stands out harshly, like the proverbial sore thumb. Yet, on its south western edge, are the Downs - a surprisingly high range of chalk hills. I thought my dog would love a good run up there. Panting, and trudging through a mixture of cattle trodden mud and dung up an incredibly steep hill, I already regretted that misguided flash of inspiration. ...
