This is such a sad story

Posted on Sat, 11 Dec 2021

This is such a sad story Grace, and frightening. I know from experience the dangers that our kids can get into whilst growing up. Mine have all reached their thirties now and are unscathed. Having babies is their latest way of putting my nerves...

Ah now, Christmas just wouldn

Posted on Sun, 12 Dec 2021

Ah now, Christmas just wouldn't be right without a bit of Michael Bublé and those jumpers. I'm sure that if Bill added these to his own festive arrangements his girlfriend would come running back to him. 

An engaging read Paul. I'm looking...

I love how your few lovely

Posted on Fri, 10 Dec 2021

I love how your few lovely words can flood my mind with thoughts.

Two lines remind me of my children's excitement in late December when they were young.

Two more take me to those beautiful creatures that wake me early with their...

How inconsiderate of Saint

Posted on Thu, 09 Dec 2021

How inconsiderate of Saint Etienne!

I could compile quite a list of gigs I've missed because of kids' birthdays, people's anniversaries, falling off my bike and breaking my ribs, Diana's funeral and, more recently, the Covid virus. But I...

Good morning.

Posted on Thu, 09 Dec 2021

Good morning!

This looks like a great playlist. Some tracks and artists I know, but many I don't, and wherever David Bowie, who I have loved for fifty years, appears I'm always keen to listen.

I'll give them all a whirl on Spotify...

I've a sneaking suspicion

Posted on Fri, 10 Dec 2021

I've a sneaking suspicion that the drug companies' desire to swell their piggy banks might be a significant factor to consider as the virus mutates into a business.

And surely not all of those conspiracy theories are without substance....

I saw David Bowie in Glasgow

Posted on Thu, 09 Dec 2021

I saw David Bowie in Glasgow in 1978. The previous evening I saw Thin Lizzy at the same venue. It was also the weekend of the World Cup Semi Finals in Argentina (unmissable on the telly at the time) and the weather was hot and sunny. Quite a...

Posted on Wed, 08 Dec 2021

An excellent reminder of how little respect we have for these miracles of nature that will (or at least should) outlive us.

I really enjoyed reading your poem.

Oh, and congratulations on your golden cherries.

It saddens me deeply to think

Posted on Tue, 07 Dec 2021

It saddens me deeply to think that people's lives that have been filled with terror should end in this way. 

I enjoyed (if enjoyed is the right word) your account of what might happen in such circumstances. It's a difficult subject to...
