About me on college: exam grades mean little in my case - thank you to my father!

Details: Category: My Career Story; Published: 21 January 2021

I will start off with a warning again which is in part one (paragraph one) as well. Young folk, if you are reading this, do not go into a job interview talking like this article.

In the last article published in May 2020 I finished off with my exam grades which were not great and my school not offering ICT A Levels which caused me to go elsewhere. Before I talk about education for a second, let’s change to a different topic - comparing the early noughties to 2021. Many things have changed, from crime, terrorism, transport, internet, parenting to fun. Then fun was cycling to a friend unsupervised and walking in a field with an open stream.

The Covid-secure “fashion craze” has similarities to Cyber-secure

What prompted me to write this you may wonder? Last month, before going to the Highlands + Islands with a friend I went away in England for a week and visited a tourist attraction. The 450-year-old attraction had the standard track and trace method which caused me to laugh.

The heart-warming rescue of a young injured seagull from a Scottish castle in the Highlands this month

Details: Category: Blog; Published: 08 September 2020

This is a rare non-work-related article… earlier in the month myself and a friend were driving in the Highlands + Islands covering 1100 miles in just under ten days.

Near the end of the trip we were walking to a ruined castle a few miles away from civilisation with poor signal and I spotted a young seagull walking along. It was trying to take off but failed each time - why? It had a break in its left wing. We were discussing what to do and this lasted under one minute, and it vanished from our eyes.

Looking for it, it fell into tiny stream which had barely any water flowing. With a poor signal I struggled to find the RSPB’s phone number and on getting through a recorded message said we cannot assist - speak to SPCA which is the same as the RSPCA but separate. I called up and left details with a call agent who answered the call swiftly.
