So this happened around 4am this morning. These are stills taken from the videos I took from my balcony overlooking the River Thames in Greenwich, South East London. This light show was in the sky over the river. There were no people around, no aircraft, no wires, no projectors , no noise at all. The display went on for about 20 minutes I think but it was more of the same…and I got cold lol.

Does this happen every night and I’ve never noticed? What is going on?
Is it a visit from the ?

Don't believe Elton or Chicago.

Saying sorry is easy. The hard bit it meaning it.

The average Brit says ‘sorry’ 8 times a day. 1 in 8 of us say it once every hour.

The word 'sorry' is now little more than a throwaway remark. It is a grunt that comes from our mouths instinctively. Its use driven more by habit than emotion.

And an apology is not an admittance of any responsibility but, literally, a 'speech in one's defence'. It is a justification of our actions against the potential disapproval of others.

We all make mistakes. How do we let people know that we recognise them? How do we ask for forgiveness?

My new blog looks at how to say sorry. And mean it.

Sorry has become a throwaway remark for many of us. Its overuse has weakened the meaning it conveys. Learn how to say sorry and mean it.
