Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2025

As I'm reading I'm seeing an element of myself in your story. I had the chance to stay on at school and go to art college, but decided in the end money was more important. It would be good to think I had another self, who actually did go to...

Posted on Tue, 24 Jun 2025

Hi David, there's no way I would go to Glastonbury festival now, far too busy there for me at my age, and as for camping now...well I can't think of anything worse. 

You were lucky to go there in 1987, it's more than I've achieved in my...

I can just see the expression on Gwladys face, poor woman never gets a moment to herself. Though It was so amusing to read.

Fun to read as always Phil.

You know my opinion on technology Harry. The phone I've just got, sits on my desk unused, apart from some much needed important phone numbers that my partner's son put on for me.

Hi Jess,

Hi Jess,

I love your description of my poem:- 'It reads like a composted memory.'..that is so apt and a much valued comment. Living in the moment gives reason to look back at old photos and recapture them in words, it's something I have...

Posted on Mon, 16 Jun 2025

Just spent a couple of hours reading this story Harry. So glad I went back to Dead Man 1. It's extremely atmospheric and the narrative really captures John's feelings as he goes about his business.

Fascinated on how you've created such...

Hi Paul,

Posted on Thu, 19 Jun 2025

Hi Paul,

the daring Siamese cat must have been very brave to chase the fox. This is the kind of situation that probably will never be seen again. It's a great poem and you've captured the moment perfectly.

Like Rhiannon said, if you...
