It must have been meant to be! But you are right, it was a slim chance really and turned out to be good for both of you. Just think of the good conversations we must miss every day!

Posted on Tue, 24 Jun 2025

I enjoyed your poem about the Glastonbury festival. Have you actually been to it this year? or have you been watching on TV or You Tube?

It reminds me of when I went in 1987, although my feelings and memories were not quite the same as...

Sometimes it just seems right

Posted on Fri, 07 Mar 2025

You have summed up the new world very well, sadly! It certainly isn't the new world most of us want. Hopefully it may prove to be a temporary blip, but I don't suppose it will be. A great poem! You summarise the sadness of it very accurately!

Posted on Fri, 08 Mar 2024

I have been in one or two pubs in York in my time, but thankfully never came upon a ghost, although there is so much history to the place that I would not be entirely surprised if I did meet one. Maybe the secret is never to be alone in York, and...

It is so sad that the Nazi's holocaust has led to a not the same but partly similar, in its disregard for 'the enemies' lives'. You would have thought that a greater sense of justice would have been the result, but instead we have tribalism among...

And PS; Keir Don't bother

Posted on Sun, 19 Jan 2025

And PS; Keir Don't bother making any deals with Trump. Such a deal would be bound not to be to Britain's advantage, so don't waste much time talking to him! You have got more important things to do!

Posted on Sun, 19 Jan 2025

Alfred says thankyou! He hopes he can count on you for the decisive vote, when the time comes, which he feels will be quite soon, as every time Keir does something he seems to lose votes! Even the farmers have deserted the Clumsy Party! But he...
