[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] It’s been an ever so slightly busy week!! A day of interviews in each of London, Manchester and Birmingham, followed eventually by a well deserved day of rest.
I could not describe myself as mentally or physically tired per se, but constant travelling and ‘getting yourself up’ for ...

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] There are few paths that are as oft trodden as the sidewalk of Memory Lane. Of course, it has different connotations for all of us, and in most cases is a long road with curves aplenty, and the ability to haunt and inspire in equal dosage.
I have ...

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] To describe the last few days as testing would be literal in more ways than one. I have after all spent the last 3 days at the 2nd Npower Test Match between England and Pakistan at Edgbaston, whilst my emotional equilibrium has been examined to its limits ...

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] It is one of sport’s proverbial clichés, that “Form is temporary, Class is Permanent”. Simply speaking, even the greatest lose form on occasion, but their class endures.
However, being quite particular in nature – some might say obstinate – I have always concerned myself with the use of ...

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] There are times, such as these, where even the strongest faith is questioned, and when perceived individual problems are simply put into a stark and painful perspective.
I can grieve the loss of my fiancée Dani, and can bemoan a career that keeps me so busy and detached, ...

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] The last few days, today especially, have offered me a perfect illustration of life’s contrasts and the beauty that all of those variations present us.
I have often spoken of my admiration for Nelson Mandela, and I am absolute in the esteem in which I hold him, on ...

[show_avatar email=Rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] As a former student of English Literature and graduate of Media and Cultural Studies, I have long been fascinated by language, most importantly in its key component, words, and their meaning.

[show_avatar email=rohan@hetoreahamstring.me.uk align=left] I seem to return to the word ‘bittersweet’ at the moment. I used it to describe the feelings of West Indian cricket supporters on Tuesday, and it is a very accurate means of depicting today for me.
