Story and Poem of the Month

Our Story and Poem for the month of November have been picked by london_calling79:

 

 

As we venture into the unkown depths of a COVID winter we have two heart-warming picks this month to warm your cockles. So cosy up, perhaps in the safety of a virus-proof blanket fort, ignore the inexorable decline of the Western world and enjoy some plain old-fashioned story-telling!

For our story pick of the month we present Charlie77’s engrossing opening to what we hope is an ongoing saga -  ‘The Collection’. It’s the facial expressions that got me here, so well judged and a story within a story can be read on every face.
