Hello Rhiannon.

I'm just back from a couple of weeks in England so I saw a lot of my two grandchildren. It was brilliant. I try to communicate with them via skype but nothing beats real life for picking up their characteristics and...

Your lovely words brought out

Posted on Sun, 27 Feb 2022

Your lovely words brought out the empathy in me. I struggle on with my travelling though I'll never manage the great treks and cycle rides that took me all over the place as recently as ten years ago. Wanderlust these days, I find, is not...

Beautiful words Rhiannon. I love this.

We heralded our spring a while back but since that moment of heralding we've had a fortnight of snow. Ah well, we'll just have to herald it again when it's made it's vernal mind up.

That's awful. 

Posted on Wed, 16 Mar 2022

That's awful. 

Long ago in England (Gillingham to be precise), we lived near a church. Sunday mornings were absolute mayhem with people parking cars in our narrow and normally peaceful little street, slamming doors and shouting greetings...

Good words about a terrible

Good words about a terrible situation Paul.

I hope we see brick walls daubed in belief again soon.

I was interested to read about your son. I hope he keeps safe and well. Not all Russians are mad war-mongering dictators.

Good...

In Bulgaria where I live,

Posted on Wed, 16 Mar 2022

In Bulgaria where I live, taking off your shoes to enter someone's house is a centuries old tradition. It causes great offence if we don't take them off. The host will usually have a supply of knitted woollen slipper / sock type things to offer...

It saddens me to say that

Posted on Fri, 04 Feb 2022

It saddens me to say that that part of Ireland is probably more grey than green but I'm pleased you recognised what I was aiming at in the poem. 

Thank you Frances for taking the time to read and leave a comment, It's greatly appreciated...

We've been taking some stuff

Posted on Wed, 02 Mar 2022

We've been taking some stuff to a collection centre in a nearby town. They are sending trucks to Ukraine's borders. We've also given a few quid to a Geordie bloke who lives here and drives his truck to their border with Poland. He takes as much...

Thank you Frances for taking

Thank you Frances for taking the time to read and your kind comment.

I can understand why you haven't been able to find the words. When I was writing my own I my mind was filled with sadness and anger. I couldn't get the words out quick...

I can't think of a worse

Posted on Fri, 11 Mar 2022

I can't think of a worse dilemma. How do they know that what they are going to is any better than what they are leaving behind?

I think of all those people from the Middle East and Africa who risk their lives and their children's lives to...
