This is a very unique poem, as are cows, tampered with by us and their extraordinary lives, calfs torn away and the endless milking. I love the contrast between the wild creatures and pastoral scenes.

He lived and breathed his profession and those in the know could tell from the off. I was worried about him sitting there squashed into his seat, I hope he got the job. Every town needs good bakers.

Thank you, Di, it's so encouraging to know that you're still enjoying it. I think you're right that Vanessa and Spencer sort of rescue each other on a regular basis. Some people reckon the whales and dolphins are more intelligent than us, they've...

Posted on Fri, 17 Jan 2025
I wonder if you have to be a certain type to be a guide on those ghostly walks or perhaps you become a little bit haunted yourself. The Grim Reaper reminded me a bit of those extra people on the ghost train who poke you or pull your hair. You've...
