Helloooooo, sorry for silence. Do you know, it's really just a matter of, "Not sure anyone is ever interested!" in what happens in between. It's why I much prefer this platform to twitter or Facebook etc. This is a great site, run by a fantastic lady and well, that's it really.   

So back to the matters in hand. I am on a mission this year. I want to achieve new things and break fresh ground. It's starting well on that front. I have a play to tell you about, a TV project and a short film. Blimey. Busy, huh!?
