Well, here we are once again Christmas and New Year, this year I’ve been focused outside my F1 Vault commitments on my silly little musical which is now on version three. But every year has its ups and downs this time of year is always mixed as we look in both directions. Reflecting on the F1 season, 2024 didn’t start […]
Christmas was less than a hundred days ago, and we are already at Easter, one of the shortest periods between the two because it’s based on the lunar cycle. Easter Sunday always falls on the Sunday after the first full moon following the Spring equinox in March and can be any date between 22 March and 25 April. This is […]

This month marks a year since lockdown one and ever since we have been living under these restrictions, I think for me personally this third lockdown has been harder, shielding is however ending today but it will be a few more days for logistical reasons. Maybe one of the lessons we should all take from the last year that We […]
