Richard Crossley | a personal reflection | Page 2

Newer posts →. November 28, 2013. It’s now 6 weeks since my latest (and probably last) operation. My recovery has been so much better than last time. Unrestricted visiting hours were a real bonus, and though it’s all a bit hazy in my memory now I have a recollection of watching England v Poland there with Jane and Alex. On the ward, staff weren’t under the same stresses as at Jimmy’s and could focus on their core job rather than having also to be housing case-workers and social workers. October 7, 2013.

Moving on →. A new phase…….with a gong! February 2, 2014. My disease has moved into a new phase. I suffered pains and sickness just before Christmas, and though I recovered, I’ve had further episodes since. I began a 2. All this has happened during a period of anniversaries. As well as Christmas and New Year, I’ve had a birthday and passed the 30. Anniversary of when Jane and I first got together (we’ve been happily unmarried since then)!

Reflection on Inequality | Richard Crossley

https://richardcrossley1.wordpress.com/2013/12/30/reflection-on-inequality

A new phase…….with a gong! December 30, 2013. All of this leads not so neatly onto some reflections on social and economic inequality. This won’t be a particularly well-researched academic discourse: there are better places to go for that. It’s an attempt to set out some my thoughts and feelings on what is, alongside climate change, the biggest issue facing us today. As we bow at the altar of economic growth, we fail dismally to address adequately either of these issues. Presented evidence that however r...

Farewell You Northern Hills….. | Richard Crossley

https://richardcrossley1.wordpress.com/2014/04/03/farewell-you-northern-hills

A day at the Palace. My final blog →. Farewell You Northern Hills. April 3, 2014. I’m in the Lake District! As at home, I’m having good days and not so good days here. On Sunday we got out into the Langdales with Alex and Will managing to push me in a wheelchair up a one in four hill to Blea Tarn. I did walk the steepest bits down! I don’t know what the definition is of an invalid, but I’m sure I’ve now become one! View all posts by Richard Crossley →. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. That’s...

A new phase…….with a gong! A day at the Palace →. March 13, 2014. I have now definitely moved into a new stage with the disease. It was confirmed last week following a scan that my recent weight-loss, sickness and tiredness means what I already knew from my gut instinct! Things I regret I’m not going to see / do:. The current incompetent and obnoxious government voted out of office. Halifax Town play at Wembley. Complete the Lake District Wainwrights (this was always going to be a long shot! The Grand De...

A day at the Palace | Richard Crossley

https://richardcrossley1.wordpress.com/2014/03/22/a-day-at-the-palace

Farewell You Northern Hills. →. A day at the Palace. March 22, 2014. The Palace had organised a wheel-chair and support should I require it – as it was, I was able to walk the whole thing more walking than I done for weeks before and since! And on top of that the sun shone all day. Charles was the medal-pinner, and I was able to have a brief chat with him about tenant management! As a family we had great fun, hopefully combining respect for the occasion with more than a hint of irreverence. Thanks Richar...
