It’s been a while!

Well hello!

It really has been far too long since I last had something to say…

That’s actually a lie, there’s plenty to say but then you don’t want to hear about the complexities of insurance validations. If this is what you’re after you’re in the wrong place!!!

Long story short between finishing university, finding a job and generally dealing with life this blog has kinda fallen by the way side. However it’s time to get back to the writing block and shove some entertainment in your faces! (and maybe a little bit of serious stuff but nothing too much )

My first article will focus on the rather incredible Hunt for a Star hosted by Hangout Harry right here in glorious Prestonia. Featured will be an exclusive interview with your winner Andrew Sanderson as well as footage from the night. Believe when I say this guy is one to watch!

And the next post will show exactly why!

Expect to see everything on 2nd June and expect to have your socks blown off. Until then it’s nice to see you all again!

Swine Flu Vaccine Linked to Deadly Neurological Condition

Ok its time to go to a more serious note people. I will continue to post all the usual videogame stuff but I feel that this issue is of the upmost importance. Anyone who may have any more information than what is contained here please tell me and I will be more than happy to rectify any mistakes.

The main reason for me picking up on this is twofold. Firstly my mother is a sufferer of  type-2 diabetes and as such would be one of the first in line for the vaccine and secondly I myself have been in and out of Preston’s neurological unit throughout my life and as such feel a certain kind of connection with these types of issues. I would however like to point out that I am not a doctor or even a medical student so it is possible that some errors may be present in this post.

First off the main condition which seems to be causing problems is Guillian-Barre Syndrome. As reported in the Daily Mail earlier this week certain additives of the vaccine specifically Squalene are suspected to have detrimental effects on patients.

This is mostly due to the fact that squalene is an adjuvant designed to fight the virus quickly and as a result decrease the time it takes for the body to become immune to the virus.

However issues have been raised as to whether this is safe. Squalene has thus far only been approved for use in three vaccines ever. This could well be due to the fact that GBS is such a large risk and can even result in death. Antibodies seem to turn on the host in this syndrome attacking nerves and thus disabling the functions of various parts of the body including the lungs.

Check out this story to see what I mean

Either way in my opinion here we have an issue that requires great attention and a great deal more thought than has been given to it so far.

Let me know your opinions and expieriences

One love

Hey everyone. Bit of a random post today. As I said when we first met this blog is actually part of my uni course so I do have to upload some of my work onto here. This is one of those pieces of work.

I have to admit photography isnt exactly my forte but here’s an attempt. Its a picture from outside Preston City Council which obviously is pretty relevant to a journalism course.

The next proper post should be up by the weekend

One love
