Positive Affirmations Come on!
Positive Affirmations Come On!
Week 2; in a Big Brother style (only ever wasted my time with 1 series of that crap). Quite clearly the bar was set at a high level in week 1. Not here to compare achievements; what will be will be.
What was:
1. Exercise and massage.
Happily starting again with the same first being exercise, this time with the direct follow-up of a therapy in the form of a massage. Confused?
I attend an amazing charity - Multiple SclerosisResearch and Relief Fund (@MSRRFCharity) and have done for years. The service provision obviously for those with of affected by MS is undoubtably of the highest order and I’m thankful to be a part of it – volunteer there too (giving something back) – very rewarding.
A massage after a gym good session calms the muscles and mind. As a singular treatment, massage can be brilliant too. For example, helping with spasticity. A common MS symptom.
2. Kynren.
When I headed to Glasgow University for an open day about the Aeronautical Engineering degree in ’96, I met Peter on the train. We remain good friends to this day and Pete is now volunteering with Kynren and I had said for too long I would go but hadn’t. Until last weekend! My word. What an evening!
(tweaked words from MY TripAdvidor review)
My 1st #Kynren! Absolutely amazing night. The production, the flow, acting, dancing, story, history, education, music, the sound... 10/10. Can't recommend enough!
Realistically I had no idea what to expect. Poor marketing in my opinion left me a bit curious as to what exactly it is, apart from the ‘2000 years in 90 minutes’! With a short advert video showing parts of the show was interesting. What date though? Hmmm!
It came across as being a very professionally organised event - it was! The ticketing there (the entrance with handlers and security etc) was done efficiently in a friendly manner; the stalls (catering, merchandise...) were superb - don't get caught out in a queue before the show starts at half 9 - all in a brilliant friendly vibe.
Complaint? For me, needing a seat for my own reasons, there were not enough in the open space in the stall area. Did not however take anything away from the evening once it started and I managed to get to my seat!
Spellbinding and EPIC!!! Great night.
3. England.
It is World Cup year. As a football – and a massive Newcastle United – fan and currently in-between seasons, this was always going to a welcome filler. Don’t get me wrong, I do watch World Cups and UEFA European Championships (1996 was class!).
However. England have been a team of interesting watching for years with different World and European Cup campaigns and no success since 1966.

Gareth Southgate (the manager) is doing a top job. So far anyway and having won the first ever penalty shoot-out against one of the dirtiest teams to have played in the world cup (Columbia), which was stressful watching with an amazing result, I am excited!
I could go on. Wait until after Sweden!
There you have it. 3 positives for the week! Next week? Hopefully celebrating England’s progression! COME ON!!!
Your 3?
