I didn't know he was dead. I should pay more attention to what's going on.

Elkie Brooks is still with us though. She had a great voice when she was with Vinegar Joe.

Posted on Fri, 23 Feb 2024

Ah, yes! I changed a couple of the words, partly because of the copyright thing and partly because our Johnny doesn't really run.

I didn't know that Robert Palmer was from Yorkshire. Born in Batley, according to Wiki. I wonder why he never...

Kids... absolutely precious... they distract the mind from everything that's wrong with the world.

Shockingly lovely.

Posted on Fri, 16 Feb 2024

A great reminder that what we have contains so much more beauty and tranquilty than the homes of much of the rest of the world. I wish that wasn't true but it is. Your words soften the reader's frame of mind before the contrast and the harsh...

I can see that quizzical look on her face. I've seen it many times.

And I can see the need for the dreamtime gun.

Ah now, my heart’s full of special music.

I’ve dozens of favourites and if I listed them all you’d get bored but top of the tree is David Bowie.

My parents would drag me and my sister to Crazy Prices in Coleraine every Fiday evening in the late 1960s. I didn't like going but watching the sparks fly from the fingers of the check-out woman as she tapped in the prices on the buttons on the...
