No guts, no glory … With the return of Tim Peake safely back to Terra-firma it certainly has me wondering of the courage, commitment and faith those mortals greater than I possess. Major Tim Peake and others like him from all nations should be congratulated whole-heartedly for their achievements through inner belief, faith, trust and…

I took a step to my left as ‘priority’ Gladys bowled past me, a steaming cup of coffee in one hand. ‘Like one?’ she asked. ‘Thanks, tea please.’ I uttered ‘Best get it yourself then, I’m just too busy.’ came the reply. I’d seen this before. Gladys had just been handed an ‘urgent’ which prompted…
