The Leaf Blower - Part 4
On the bathroom shelf, a shabby box of Shobna’s migraine pills caught his eye, the blister pack had slid halfway out and there were only a couple of...

Posted on Tue, 21 Feb 2023
Loved reading about their relationship with each other and the give and take between them. Cats generally seem to live great lives, doing what they want at the top of whatever food chain it is that they inhabit. Little Grayson sounds so sweet. I'...

This is like a time capsule
Posted on Tue, 14 Feb 2023
This is like a time capsule Jenny, crafting from words a picture which we can all see. Somehow our depiction of past times seems more innocent than today's world but I don't know if that's actually true or we were just more naive. The pubs were...

We certainly are blessed, Jenny. Sometimes I wonder why we go to such lengths to make our own entertainment when all thise is just outside, it's a shame many children don't have much access to nature and this world in luminosity.

This is like a short holiday and just what I needed to read today. I'm glad you didn't cut it short. I could feel the heat from the sandstone and imagine the long grasses clinging. 'No time for regrets'. This is one to revisit.

Posted on Mon, 09 May 2022
Loved a den as a child and would have one now if I had a larger patch of garden. There are few things more restorative than immersing yourself in the wild among branches entwining, listening to the distant buzzing. I really love the way you've...

Posted on Thu, 21 Apr 2022
'gingered bracken' - I love this description and the photographs are beautiful. The way you've included a glider, it adds another dimension and forces you to imagine the view from above as well as at ground level. The whole thing is very...

I can imagine how all those soft colours blend together beneath the spring sunshine. It's lovely to see the sheep and lambs in Wales but I can't help wondering if they will become a rarer sight with changing consumer habits and increasing...

Posted on Mon, 14 Mar 2022
The earth is just about perfect except for the bits where human behaviour, often driven by big business have reduced it to a polluted wasteland. I agree that we all have a hole, maybe it is God-shaped, I don't know but there is great contentment...
