This story must take a lot of working out, to write each stage carefully, not rushed, patiently working forward at right pace. Rhiannon

That sounds a wonderful exploration of the market: sounds, smells and sight, and conversations. The photos on flicker are amazing and very clear. Rhiannon

A full American breakfast!

Posted on Sun, 28 Jan 2024

A full American breakfast! Though I think my family have it as a treat often on Saturdays! I can't see them 'roughing it' and fishing for their food yet, but it sounds as if you've got interesting clues fixed up. You spoke about Dad's boots. Have...

I'm sorry, i missed noticing

Posted on Sun, 21 Jan 2024

I'm sorry, i missed noticing this last week. You are keeping up the intriguing mix of the ordinary and quirky fantasy (smelly sneakers and Dad's long-ago fantasy adventure) I was amused by the comment of the 'dog' having 'to accommodate her...

I think your writing was more

Posted on Thu, 25 Jan 2024

Posted on Mon, 22 Jan 2024

thanks.Yes! it's no wonder Rev Awdry and others have put faces on them is it? My father's first car was called Canta because, he said, 'Canta Ford it'!  There is a Welsh rhyme for children about 'Morus y gwynt' (Morris the wind) so my friend's...
