Glad I could bring up some “good” memories from the past Tony. Keep up the great work yourself and thanks for the encouraging words!

Great story John. Always enjoy your perspective. And hey, nothing wrong with an occasional rant – I think that’s what keeps us sane.

Thanks Kimunya. That means a lot to me. Know that your friendship and our collaboration has been of great value to me as well. Take care my friend and continued success on the book!

Your article brought back some amazing memories including the one of being the only Head Librarian in the history of my secondary school to be banned for two weeks! I was chatting up some girls in an area reserved for senior students only and took the fall like the true gentleman I am!

I have always loved reading, a habit I took up from my father, who was an incredibly self-educated man! Like you, I spent a lifetime in my Government career writing reports, so I was used to writing.

What really got me into writing for fun was my conversion to social media and setting up my blog. In the first instance, this was more about positioning my brand than enjoying writing for writing’s sake! Now I love to write and do so because I want to share my views, my opinions, my experiences and, occasionally, because I like to rant!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
