Blueberry - Part Three
Think Sandra, think, think, think. Guessing the correct password for Ben’s laptop would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. She tried:...

You went to King Edwards, holy grail of selective schools? I must say, A levels seem like hell and I refrained from getting emotionally invested in my kids' results.
You've built the a sense of both apprehension and rapid change in this...

I enjoyed this arrangement of words. It's very different and got me thinking about how writing becomes so natural but only after years of learning to spell, punctuate and the rest. To be both creative and articulate, you have to dig stonking deep...

It's a beautiful trubute to a beautiful flower Ed. You could never get bored of such a powerful colour. There are some plants that never seem to give up, often the ones you don't fuss over. Never give up, a positive token from the terrace....

A perfect ghost story, really enjoyed it. Stirring and charming in equal measure. So exciting exploring these places when you're a child although I get the impression it doesn't happen much these days.

Thanks for reading Insert. I wonder if there was part of them that wanted Sandra to be eaten. On a serious note, there are a lot of dangerous dogs out there with irresponsible owners. A horror ending to the story could have been entertaining but...

This sounds like absolute heaven. Maria making use of every bit of space to grow plants, useful or beautiful. It's interesting the way people will add to rubbish if they see rubbish, I think it's the same with grafitti and bags of dog poo. What a...

A strong message, beautifully written.
It's the parents who have free childcare from grandparents who are the real winners. You only hope they repay the favour twice over. Brilliant POTD.

A wonderful tribute to our native and very vigorous growing blackberry. I have so many memories of picking and also finding a little white grub inside after biting the top off. The grubs just disappear in the jamming process. Good old-fashioned...
