Inspiration Point (work that responds to our weekly writing cue)

This was insipired by memories of my father’s lusty singing of the humourous 'National Anthem of the Ancient Britons' or the 'Woad Ode' (to tune of Men of Harlech) I didn’t know it by that title but just by some of the words and tune (see links) I used to enjoy the fun, rhythm and fun rhymes. What I’ve written comes from thinking about it but is nothing like it.

Posted on Sun, 13 Jun 2021

Thank you. A warning that saves from danger and points to a good present must be kind! Like calling a child from rushing into the road, and from getting lost, to the way back home! Rhiannon

A lot of ineteresting detail

Posted on Fri, 11 Jun 2021

A lot of ineteresting detail amongst the mundane of reporting, and that is what makes reading the ordinary accounts of the time worthwhile, and you realise these are real people not just statistics.

Such vafied, responsible work he was given. He must have been considered a good investigator and reporter on these matters.
