Found the site in November 2011. Love the friendly and easy format. Write stories and the occasional poem. Have published four books, all available from Amazon. The East End Butcher Boy, Eastendbutchers Short Story Collection, The Men In The Shadows and Who Is Jack Winter. Always amazed at the diversity of the site and the quality of the writing. Try to write as much as I can and like to try different styles. Hope you like my stories.

Liked this Ed. You open with drifting icy kapok. Great imagery that sets the scene for the rest of the poem. Trees looking like fairy cakes, weeping cars... whats not to like? Great poem mate.

Hi Di, I just had this idea that maybe this long last watch was just hanging about somewhere with everyone thinking it was a fake. Its a true story about the watch. It was Buzz Aldrins and it has been missing since 1970!

Ahh the old school reunions. They can often go two ways, either enjoyable or a total nightmare. Yours seemed to go fine and possibly put to bed some old demons. I only went to one. Left after twenty minutes...

Really enjoyed January's snippets, especially the 29th. I felt sorry for the cat. Not sure castration has ever brought joy to any ones life! Keep them coming...

He's a bit of a legend is Joseph Locke in Ireland. Great voice, great character. Nice story, as Sooz said, just needs a quick edit, but nice work. Enjoyed this on a very dull day in London.

Weird, wonderful, funny, bizarre and creative. As I'm reading it I'm seeing it as a comedy sketch in my mind. Brilliant stuff.

Fuck me...this is good. Very good. I've been to every place you mention in Paris and for all the same reasons. But not with the same outcome. Brilliant piece of writing. More please...
