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...

I'm no expert, but...

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 ...

The poor and needy

Posted on Thu, 22 May 2025

I vaguely remember you mentioning hanging round the docks in some of your previous writing. Maybe a specialist subject!? But seriously, well done to you for bringing that sordid side of nineteenth century England to life in your story.

Sea life

A good start

Posted on Mon, 19 May 2025

Oooh Jenny, you've written loads of instalments and I'm only starting to read them now. Apologies for that. However, if they're all as well written as this one it'll take me no time at all to catch up.

Tropical

Posted on Wed, 21 May 2025

Great writing with a typically tropical taste... and smells. In fact you took me through the whole range of senses, imagining the scene and wishing I was there.

Treasure

Posted on Fri, 16 May 2025

Well worn old things are always more attractive and interesting to look at than the pristine new stuff, in my opinion. We have three very old trunks that use to store linen. From the outside their appearance suggests treasure but inside there's...
