It has to be train. I love to take in the views and vibes of train journeys, especially the old-fashioned steam engines. I’ve been lucky enough to go on a short trip at a railway museum, and there’s nothing like the ‘chugga chugga’ sound of gears and cogs doing their thing. The old train stations are a wonder to behold as well. Preston train station is just like Kings Cross with the high billowing roof and framework. Yep. Trains every time.

There is no great karmic control that comes from the universe. We decide how fair the world is. How fair we want it to be. Of course, the people in power control the big picture, but you can make someone’s day a little bit better just from a small, kind act. You can give them hope that the world isn’t this cruel, harsh place that most of the time, the people in power are determined to prove otherwise.

I’m going through a period of hyper creativity at the moment, so three objects I couldn’t live without are my pen, my notebook, and my guitar (don’t make me pick which guitar; the others will never forgive me).

This is probably a boring answer, but I wouldn’t want to be anyone else, even if I could be. I’m enough for me. Yes, I could do with more money, a home of my own, and a partner, but I’d want all those things as myself, not living out the fantasies as someone else. I’m proud of all my achievements, but I also own all my mistakes and regrets. The man writing this is a result of everything, good and bad, that’s ever happened to him. It’s difficult enough to be ourselves in this era of too-fast technology and seemingly endless political controversy and upheaval. Life is unique and complex, and we all need to appreciate ourselves more.
