I have been feeling just a little guilty over the last week or so because I've spent so much time on the business I have let the fitness go, at my age that's a big no, no. This morning I started a little bit earlier to do my mails and admin giving me a window…

What started out to be a really nice day ended up as quite a sad one. Sometimes I'm afraid life is just not fair. Rather than reflect on the entire day and all the things that happened to me, out of respect for one of our team, I would rather just send a message of…

Up at 0530 today, despite wanting to stay in bed I forced myself to get up, shower and plan the next few days. I was on the road by 0630 and stopped off at the Gym on my way into the office. Quick legs, back and biceps workout and into the shower again before arriving…
