What a perfect walk you had
Posted on Fri, 24 May 2024
What a perfect walk you had Rhiannon. Moments like this have to be captured, and you did such a fine job of taking the reader there in your poem, which I very much loved.
The photos do you proud too. Such beauty.
Thank you for...

always glad to see a new story from you, and It didn't disappoint. I'm now wondering how ominous the rest of this man's journey is going to be.
Great title and some mind blowing descriptions of his surroundings and the...

This is such a brilliant poem

Great story for the I P Jane.
Posted on Mon, 20 May 2024
Great story for the I P Jane. I love Blodwyn's poem, it evoked folklore and timely care the skilled gardener puts forward to growing a submission in a competition.
Very well thought out and a pleasure to read.
Jenny.

Oooh! Archibald gets so
Posted on Fri, 17 May 2024
Oooh! Archibald gets so confused and poor Josiah is so tolerant, I can feel his frustration building, but luckily Josiah manages to control his feelings.
I'll bet Archibald's already rushing back to that cupboard to relay what he's...

I wonder how Vanessa will
Posted on Fri, 17 May 2024
I wonder how Vanessa will react to that last comment about Spencer being a slave.
It's funny how our taste buds change as we get older. I used to grow chillies and put them with so many different foods, but now can't stand anything that's...

Hi Turlough,

Hi Turlough,
you know I never thought about Chere's record when I wrote those words. Although I get your point, there's no way I would take to a ship's deck with all those American sailors oggling me. She was lucky enough to have the looks...
