Words begin to pour into my open mind; like the glorious rain falling in spates of expectation; then as silent murky billows devour sky, my eyes too...

I just had to look up Ras Gombo, what an amazingly island with natural scenery and untouched beauty. It must be such a pleasure to be part of a place so special.

Hi Turlough,
It's so sad that we're loosing so many great musicians. I too remember Roberta Flack's: Killing Me Softly. Always brings back memories of a friend who passed recently from Lymphoma, which she'd suffered with since 2017. This...

Hi Phil,
I think you've done a brilliant job at pulling Jeannie's back story together. Poor woman being raped by her grandfather is horrifying. Everything adds up now. I wonder! If Precious will change her ways.
I'm sorry to see the...
