It's good to have nice

Posted on Tue, 30 Jan 2024

It's good to have nice memories Dougie, but it's good to make new memories too. There's nothing we can do about what lies ahead of us and we can't change the past. It's best to live for the moment, as your poem suggests.

I hope the old...

A man written about after his passing is surely a man worthy of respect.

I'm sorry for the loss of your good friend.

I have similar experiences of language classes, though as the student rather than as the tutor, and it's small children kept in the corner that require feeding instead of snakes. Whatever happens it's always a million times more enjoyable than...
