A piece of cake
Posted on Sat, 21 Dec 2024
In the summertime, with my own car to Sofia and the tram from Manchester airport to my daughter's house, the journey's a piece of cake. It's when someone puts icing on the cake that the problems kick in.

This made me smile. I regret not having read it when you posted it back in ages ago.
I've been invited to read some of my stuff at a poetry night in February. I've been to one of these sessions before but didn't participate as I was just...

Dilation of de nation
Posted on Sun, 15 Dec 2024
I can't understand why David Attenborough has never taken his film crew to the Tommy Wass on Dewsbury Road. A pub famed for its great range of pupil dilation.
Keep well Jenny!

That's incredible Jenny. Thanks for sharing.
The video clip reminds me of a pub I used to frequent in Leeds.
I love your accompanying poem too. The words offer a great description of the bird and its habits.

Clocks
Posted on Tue, 10 Dec 2024
But my birthday's always the week after the clocks have changed. It's the worst possible time of the year. I don't feel like celebrating anything until they've been changed back again in March; that vernal clock change day in itself being a...

Posted on Tue, 10 Dec 2024
If all that changing your birthday to a different date malarkey was legal, I would choose to have mine on a summer's day. I think I'd like to be celebrating on the birthday of William Butler Yeats, which is 13th June, though he was born a...

Crackers!
Posted on Wed, 04 Dec 2024
With your festive words I think you've covered all the features of a classic Christmas, Paul.
Except for a Boxing Day football match, perhaps!
Very well done. It's a Christmas cracker!

Those words 'new lease of life' are music to my ears. I'm delighted for you Jenny.
I'm also delighted that you and your neighbours didn't give in to the developers. I remember when I first found out about the existence of land banks, where...
