An abundant poem Jenny. Nothing can hold nature back, especially at this time of year, the sense of expectancy is everywhere, bursting buds and busy birds. Very apt for mother's day weekend.

How unsettling, an innocent
Posted on Fri, 08 Mar 2024

An extremely entertaining
Posted on Fri, 23 Feb 2024
An extremely entertaining read Turlough and very funny in parts. What a character, from what you describe a cheerful, good spirited person despite his tendency to cadge what he wants rather than earn it through conventional means. Semi-ferel...
