Posted on Sat, 21 Oct 2023
Great poem, with impressions of Egypt, and the Arab and muslim world, and memories of Arab and Israeli conflict! It is a shame they have not been able to find peace or fairness.

Great poem for these disturbing and upsetting times! How would we cope? How do they cope? Is any of this our responsibility, or our fault?

The ballet dancing job sounds very interesting Turlough, but I don't think Alfred would be much good at that either, although he does like a bit of Tchaikovsky from time to time. He will promise to avoid the Leeds area, thanks for the warning! He...
