Bleeding Deacon

Since I have succesfully defined myself before I start.I will tell you a little about myself I have been a member of the fellowships since 1984 remaining clean since my first meeting, but know due to arthiritis remain slightly isolated so hence the blog. My clean time has been blessed with a little serenity and a wealth of personal fullfillment. I am dyslexic, so please excuse my spelling and grammar. I am also an academic hence the Bleeding Deacon this blog is open to everyone, its not exclusive. You dont have to be a member. you automatically are when you post. The background of the tropical island is in my mind my own little piece of serenity, so a picture of an english council estate, well maybe that might not work as well.Life has taken me to Spain, Morocco, Portugal and a stint in the Canary Islands. I have worked as a senior drugs and alcohol counsellor for a number of charities that specialised in working within the UKs prison system. I am currently studying for a PHd after succesfully completing two MSc,s. I have worked within various fellowships many from the very early days and Spanish NA and Coda that remain close to my heart.I have been more of an out-law rather than an in-law and have an unorthadox method of running my program. Well its tailormade for me. My views are atheist, agnostic but I have a belief in a power far greater than me..
