A chance for you to create the perfect ceremony that is as unique as you are

As an independent celebrant I am free to design and conduct ceremonies which are religious, non-religious or anywhere in between. This means the ceremony truly can be as unique as you are and can include readings or rituals that are important to you.

Hi East Midlands Railway (EMR) . Im currently sat on the floor of a train that is decidedly shorter than it should be because all the new trains mean we have a new excuse of 'more trains needing repair than expected'. Its a 5 car train instead of a 10....

And WHY were you still selling 1st class up until 30 minutes ago when theyve been declassified.

And please dont advertise the buffet car in the middle...some tossers will try and get to it!

The lovely train announcer said i needed to tell you on social media. So I have.

Normal wedding/ ceremony stuff will resume when...if...I get home....

So here's the thing that some of you dont know.

In order for me to do my 'heart work' the celebrancy, the charity work, in the way I want to (limited so you get the attention you deserve whilst I protect my heart) I also need to work in a job that pays a salary, a pension etc.

For the majority of my time as a celebrant that's been due to the NHS. In recent years working with and for autistic people and people with learning disaabilities.

But recently I got caught in the changes this government implemented. And at the same time a new role was advertised. So I applied.

Because of what I've been gifted and learnt from the people I've worked alongside I got it.

Today was my first day. I'm now an employee of the Church of England.

What does that mean for you?

Nothing. My practice doesnt change. You get the same care, consideration and love with your ceremonies you always did. If you want a bit of faith in it, nay bother. If you dont...nay bother.

I've never hidden my faith. But it's mine. When I get married/die then I will have God involved (I mean...I'm hoping I get the Abbey now.... right??...) When you get married/name your child/ die...its your right to choose.

I will always be your celebrant. But I'm also the Reverend Peter Robson's daughter. Churchwarden Carol Lea's child. And from my first day...I think I'm home.

(Also if being in London once a month means theatre trips and out to play with Brian...bring it on...)

According to Bracken happiness is a ball field and all the balls he can find.

For others, its being lost in classical music, in the darkness of cinemas, in solitude.

Then there are the people who are happiest when surrounded by friends, when the music is loud, the bass is pumping out.

This Friday as I finally get back to writing ceremonies, sending questionaires, building mini sets, writing governance papers or any if the miriad of things that are on my list Im going to ensure that doing the things that make me happy are on the list as well. So that includes booking theatre tickets, messaging friends for dinner dates, checking in. All in attempt to not end up like Bracken in the last picture.......which made me Lol....

Funny old day.

14 years essemtially constantly in the nhs (and 5 before that) and a year ago a leaked announcement and nothing thought through led to me falling out of love with the cogs that drive the machine. But not the machine. The nuts and bolts that cause the cogs to turn. Those i adore. They are my colleagues and friends and when it works it is beautiful amd it is beautiful. But when the nuts and bolts go....well its Wes' Wrong Decisions.....

So Im 14 amd out. Onto new things. Will i be back (im a bit of a boomeramg.....who knows. I dont think so this time.

New adventures. New work.

Still celebranting.....which could be about to get interesting.....

For now a couple of post work drinks then home, pack, birmingham and by this time tomorrow....drinks by the pool.

Seees ya!

I'm not gonna lie the last couple of weeks as we've celebrated together, not being able to tell Jim our news has cut deeply. Knowing he won't be at my wedding. As he would have pointed out he'd been at the practice run....

I don't cry every day but I don't stop missing him. Ever. Grief changes shape. Now it drives me instead of crippling me.

This poem by sums it up pretty well.

I'LL STOP MISSING YOU
when the waves stop rushing toward the shore.
when the earth stands still and the stars shine no more.
when the color blue forgets the sky.
when the mountains fall and the deserts cry.
when the sun turns cold and the moon splits in two
that's when i'll stop missing you.

Happy Birthday James. I miss you my friend.
