Nôl - Back

It only seems right that I should mention my latest artistic endeavour - let's be honest, no one else is going to. Hold on to your hats, and set your alarm early for Wednesday, 1st of June.

I always had a problem when people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up;  I never could find an answer. I would have said astronaut, but I knew that the food was awful I eventually started saying ‘architect’ which led to a university course and a good grounding in many design skills, but my heart was never really in it. What I didn’t know then, and I didn’t realise until recently, was that the very thing I wanted to do to make a living didn’t even exist at the time. It might not even exist now. Next scheduled post: Fri 9 March.
