Telling folks that you were
Posted on Thu, 17 Aug 2023
Telling folks that you were in a drinking game with a room full of soft toys is a great way to explain away a hangover. I might try that one myself.
I like the Benny Hill Show reference too. When you made your dash for it were you being...

I like these words...

No wonder they grow up with behavioural problems.
Despite their reputation your poem makes me feel sympathetic towards them....

Nice words Rhiannon.
Oh for a drop of drizzle here now. We had a huge thunderstorm with torrential rain a couple of nights ago but by mid morning the next day the ground was back to its usual concrete state.

You know a flower has made an impact on your life when you name it yourself.
Your words really do give the feeling that you're talking to a friend. A lovely poem.

Britain's astronomically
Posted on Sat, 12 Aug 2023
Britain's astronomically expensive in comparison to much of Europe. Scandinavian countries are probably the exception. I always dread having to go back to England because of the cost. If it wasn't for my kids and grandkids over there I never...

Posted on Sat, 12 Aug 2023
In Bulgaria our state health service makes no provision for dentistry but from my experience our private dentists are extremely good and very cheap.
And waiting lists just don't exist for any aspect of our health care.
So if ever...

I like the way that the fence plank features as much in your poem as the bird and the meal do. Setting the scene helps the tale to unfold in the imagination.

This is great reading. So many emotional angles in it. More crises than a family can be expected to cope with but you've melded them so well.
I'm sorry, I didn't read this when you first put it up on the site. There's too much good stuff...

It was absloutely awful. It's still at the front of my mind. But if I'd have reacted in any way I'm sure I'd have found my face pressed to the road too.
I was taking my partner to the bus station so she could go to the Black Sea with her...

Posted on Thu, 10 Aug 2023
A man called Mustafa comes up our lane every May and August to poison the weeds on the side of the road. In our hot wet weather the vegetation grows at a phenomenol rate so I can understand that something needs to be done so that the road remains...
