Worry

Posted on Mon, 02 Jun 2025

If I was of child-bearing age I would be very reluctant to bring offspring into the world that's in the mess that it's in today. I worry myself sick about the future that my grown up children have to look forward to and even more about their...

The A650

Posted on Fri, 30 May 2025

My money's on this being about Australia. From my own experience I might even venture to say that it's about the land to the east of Spencer Gulf in South Australia. But go on, tell me it's about the A650 between Leeds and Bradford.

Firestarter

Posted on Fri, 30 May 2025

I like to think that I'm a flamebearer. But I like the barefoot in the fields and the sinking in the dark bits too. You've brought these comparisions together wonderfully well and made me have a good think. 

I'm going out now to buy a box...

Thank you very much Jessiibear. They're the same toes now but sixty years older. They seem much different, but toes have memories.

Well done Samson!

Posted on Fri, 30 May 2025

A megalithic dolmen. I've been visiting these places in Ireland all my life and they never fail to mystify me as I try to imagine the human activity that led to their being there. They're always in peaceful and beautiful settings where a good old...

Peat Bog Feet

Posted on Thu, 29 May 2025

Thanks Di, it's reassuring to know that my feet resemble those of thousands of years old peat bog men. Perhaps I should change my socks more often.

I'd imagine that the water in the rivers and streams where you live is peaty and brown too...

Posted on Thu, 29 May 2025

I'm no expert at this but I just write all my stuff in Word documents ensuring that the formatting is constant throughout. Then, after saving them, I copy and paste onto a blank page on the ABC site. It seems to work.

The women!

Posted on Fri, 23 May 2025

Where I live now, the dark days of Communism pushed women out to work and the feeling of importance and value to the community has stayed with them long after the fall of the regime. Many businesses here are run by women and in many walks of life...

Pint

Posted on Thu, 22 May 2025

Now if I'd been arriving so far ahead of schedule I'd have sent a text message to let the people know, or just gone for a pint to while away the time until I was expected.

How times change.

Llandoger Trow

Posted on Thu, 22 May 2025

When I worked in an office near Bristol Bridge I would often go to the Llandoger Trow. It was a brilliant old pub with some great literary connections. Apparently it inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to write about the Admiral Benbow Inn in ...
