A clever and interesting poem Di. There's so many directions you can go in with a chrysalis, it's such a shocking peice of engineering and a shocking process for the creature involved but somehow it survives all that change. I enjoyed the uplift...

It is sad that they interbred
Posted on Mon, 09 May 2022
It is sad that they interbred, the English ones being so much more delicate. A lovely tribute to a beautiful sight. We are so lucky if we can get out and see these gems in the natural world because they are free and better than man-made...

It's the ones you write the fastest because you'e writing from the heart. Really interesting read, you must have been a bright student to go off and do English Studies at university. The stint of temping no doubt helped to give you a grounding in...

Posted on Fri, 29 Apr 2022
Making me feel a bit queasy, unwashed men, meatballs and sleazy hook-up apps, perhaps I'm just a bit delicate. That Dave is a bit of a freeloader. Uggly Puggly's random release back into the community sounds typical of the random and inconsistent...

Posted on Sat, 23 Apr 2022
'the pumpkin with bad hair', that's a common look since Donald Trump made fake tan mainstream. I also really enjoyed the pub scene, a thing of the past now. And the enduring school bully, acting like a respectable member of the community, shifty...

So much freedom demonstrated
Posted on Sun, 24 Apr 2022
So much freedom demonstrated here in your words Jenny. There is the part of us that gets old, tired and limited and then this side where anything is possible. 'Hitching a ride on ever changing winds', as long as we can do that, there's a reason...

This is brilliant and it made me laugh a lot. Uggly Puggly and his weird mate/lover. I love UP's quirks and the way he is capable of anything, including having too much electricity.
