His Running Top

On the radiator, it sat, folded over neatly, waiting for him to put it on, warm on his skin, before his next run. Now it gathers a layer of dust that...

Chewy and Exhausting

Very topical Rhiannon and it

Posted on Thu, 04 Jul 2024

Very topical Rhiannon and it's not only the older generations who are susceptible to such scams. The sophistication of these things is moving at such a rate of knots, nobody is immune, particularly if you have a gap in your life, leaving you more...

Posted on Mon, 22 Apr 2024

Agree with this too. This site and its contributors have really honed my writing skills, like a passive university. There's no pressure to do homework and there's no pressure for anyone to mark it but it happens because we all enjoy it and keep...

This makes me want to go out

Posted on Fri, 16 Feb 2024

This makes me want to go out to the woods and look more closely, tune in and feel. Shimmering dew drops and leaves bursting through. 'There is a freedom from mistakes', how true and what if we didn't have access to that? Just illustrates how...

Oh wow, it looks more like Campanula, Campanula poscharsykana maybe, nevertheless, what a spectacle! It really did look spectacular, never seen it growing so high up a building and the fact that it's a church made it all the more magical. I...

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...

Posted on Wed, 01 Feb 2023

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.

A beautiful little tree holds

Posted on Sat, 16 Jul 2022

A beautiful little tree holds so much promise for the future as long as we respect it. I often think of what those great old oak trees have witnessed in their lifetimes. We could really do with some rumbles of thunder and a good soaking but the...

This is like a short holiday

Posted on Thu, 30 Jun 2022

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.
