Who am I?
My name's Dan and I live near Huddersfield in the North of England. I’m a 34 years old part time stay at home dad. For three days a week I'm also a community mental health nurse but you won’t find me blogging about that here. I’m married to Kerry and we have two children - Amy (6) and Evan (3). I keep chickens, grow veg, and take the occasional long walk. If you want to know how other's describe me then take a look here.Where else to find me

The month of November seems strangely suited to starting new projects. Maybe it’s the onset of cold weather and dark evenings that prompts people into generating ways by which to wile away the hours. This is the month traditionally associated … Continue reading Read more »
