A few days ago the postman brought me something very special, very special indeed. Pictured above is a very early copy of the book I wrote.

I’m still working on the back cover and the blurb...
The Significance of 2011

Every New Year’s we tell ourselves that this year is going to be different. This year we will change everything to make things the way we want it or to how things “should be”. It’s seems it’s in our nature to have these idolized commitments but come mid-January they are nothing but words.
2010 was a unique year for me and one I won’t forget easily. It marks the...
Farewell, Canada
Posted by Alex on Nov 27, 2010 in Featured Articles | Comments
Canada has been a big part of my life for the past three years and it’s with great sadness that I share the news today, that I’m flying back to live in the UK. When I moved to Halifax last Summer, Canada became my home. I spent most of my first year in Musquodoboit Harbour and as you locals know, it’s a little rural. I have met some wonderful people here and many of...

I was very pleased to receive a document from Diana Whalen, MLA this week (Even if i did have to go to the post office because the bloody postman didn’t buzz me from downstairs). I am very honored to have received this from the House of Assembly.
For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, this is...

The Advisory Board

Here is a short and sweet look at the people who make up the 2010/2011 board. Though we have only been working together for a few weeks, I can safely say we are in for a good year!
My name is...
