The Beautiful Game
This is a letter to Benjamin Netanyahu. It's about a real issue which is happening right now. I know that there are many terrible things that have happened, and are happening, in Gaza and the West Bank, and a children's football pitch may seem such a minor thing. But it really touched a nerve with me. I feel powerless to do anything about it, but at least I can cry into the void with my letter.

Hypnagogo dancers
Posted on Thu, 24 Sep 2026
Loved the stream of consciousness delivery, like James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, only hilarious. And the imaginary hypnagogo dancers dropping their beads.
Brian’s wife reminded me of the bit in Fawlty Towers where Basil says 'ever see my...

How wonderful that you can turn negative experiences into positive beautiful poetry, Jenny.
Visualisation is a powerful healing tool, and as a gifted poet your visualisation has always been strong.
We are all thinking of you ...

Thanks Jenny. Great to see you are well enough to post again. There is a little good news. Since the donkey episode Ed Milliband has declared sanctions on any firm involved in the illegal West Bank developments. It's a small step but more than...

Who am I really
Posted on Fri, 11 Sep 2026
This is so good Lilli. On the one hand it is hilariously funny, reminds me of Life of Brian and 'The People's Front of Judea', 'The Judean People's Popular Front' etc with all the variations, and 'Romani Ite Domum !'

It seems to me that the Asian car makers have never really got the model names right for the European market.. Or the colours.

I remember hearing a Lebanese woman being interviewed in 1986 after the Americans had bombed Tripoli and killed a load of civilians.
She said she didn't care who was in charge of the country – what she wanted was enough food to eat, clean...

Lake Katharine
Posted on Wed, 02 Sep 2026
The rules based international order which we, more or less, had since the second world war, seems gone for good.
Seems like anyone can do what they like, so I'm going in for a spot of lake re-naming. I live in the Cotswold Water Park in...
