I don't really post personal stuff, but it's been a long few years but things are finally sorting themselves out. I've still been working away and doing what I love best, pointing my camera at people, but thanks to all of those who have been supportive along the way!

Anyway, I'm pretty caught up with everything and am looking forward to being more present on my socials!

Here is a lovely evening shot that not only provided the couple with a quiet moment during their special day, but me with a quiet moment in a crazy time.

Here's to plenty of wedding fun!

Today we said goodbye to Paulie.

Most people know of Paul as the person who's larger than life, louder than most wildlife, and for his very public career, whether that was in the theatre, working for other companies or running his own businesses, especially in the end with a podcast and his public speaking career.

Throughout his life Paul has achieved many great things that we all know about (you're welcome…!) from on stage to working behind the scenes, to doing great things in business most recently publishing is book and also being a runner up for a British podcast award, amongst many other things.

The number of times I’ve heard someone who hasn't seen him in a while say they didn’t get a chance to see him but they're feeling the sorrow. I thought about this a lot, and I have come to realise that this is because that when your light shines as strongly as Pauls did, you don't have to be in the same room as him to feel the glow, because that light was so abundant that anywhere outside of the room, anywhere in the world, his light would shine through those windows and you could FEEL it shining and feel the warmth of all the love that he gave everybody.

I know it's very difficult for everybody now that this light has gone out and there's a darkness left behind. But we all shine a little bit brighter because of him. And while at the moment its raw and it feels right to be sad, Paulie would want us to be happy, moving on and living our lives to the best of his memory.

So, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I might say to people. The mix of knowing how the devastation of his passing will feel and the fact that so many of us knew him through the wedding industry, it seemed obvious to quote the words of another splendid bu**er: W.H. Auden, a la Four Weddings and a funeral. But the more I thought about it, Paulie would never want us to stop All the Clocks.

Instead, I feel these words by Jack London are much more fitting for how Paulie lived his life, and how he would want us all to live our lives.

"The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time."

Here's to Paulie

We are really sorry but this is going to be quite a tough message to read, so if you're not somewhere that you can deal with bad news, stop watching and look at this later.

A short while ago, my best friend Paulie was diagnosed with terminal cancer. This episode of the podcast is an announcement of what is going on. (link in my stories) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkCDY6HRkwk

Paul's family are fully aware of what's going on, but are aware of how loved Paulie is and are worried about being inundated by messages. They are being extremely well looked after and doing well considering the circumstance, but please respect their privacy.

The businesses: This will be the last Newton's nuggets episode. MentalTheft will still go on, we have plans to make use of its name and partnerships we have to offer a different type of service than the public speaking - this has been going on for a while now anyway.

Paulie: he has been an absolute trooper, the incredible person who we all know, acting with dignity whilst still retaining his sense of humour and making the nursing team laugh at every opportunity. He is continuing to fight this as long as he can, so if you message him please make it positive, full of love and support. He will read them, but if he doesn't answer its nothing personal, he's just using up every bit of energy to fight at the minute. To that end, he is also not having visitors other than his family at this time.

I know this is a lot to take in, and I'm sorry that its come to you like this today, we're just doing the best we can.

From my personal point of view, this has been devastating. I'm in the hospital every day, so I am behind and slow to respond, but I will get to you.

Lots of Love, from me and Paul's team.
