Thanks for commenting Di Hard

Thanks for commenting Di Hard. I am thinking that maybe the European nations and Ukraine should have given Putin the guarantee he seems to want so badly that Ukraine cannot join NATO or the EU, and probably recognised Russia's annexation of...

Posted on Wed, 02 Mar 2022

Maybe if western nations had agreed that Ukraine would be restricted from ever joining NATO or the EU the invasion could have been avoided? That might well have been a better solution than the current situation where Putin can sit on parts of the...

Posted on Wed, 02 Mar 2022

Good poem. You aptly sum up the inevitable hypocrisy of our 'support' when western nations don't feel it wise to join their defence and trigger a wider war.

You have made Eunice into a storm with personality, a moody storm taking centre stage, and creating spectacle in front of us! Good poem!

Posted on Thu, 10 Feb 2022

I enjoyed your story of a young man drawn into something he cannot handle by feminine promise (not just once, but twice!). He does certainly seem to pick his ladies doesn't he? Or could it be that he is the one who is inadvertantly selecting them...

Posted on Tue, 15 Feb 2022

Do we mean that Valentine was not just about love and romance? I have read some suggestions/history about him in the past, but always forget the detail before the next Valentine's Day comes around. Evidently he was an early Christian martyr in...

An imaginative and amusing leap ten years into the future! I enjoyed that, but whether it is actually going to turn out like that, I am not sure? Maybe if the Conservatives win all the elections until then it could just be!

Good poem Marandina! You brought me back to the romantic legends of King Arthur and Avalon etc. which I have always enjoyed. I am, in a sense, surprised that tower hasn't blown away, as it was exceedingly windy when I went there some years ago....
