Hawkwind

Posted on Mon, 01 Jul 2024

Hello Jenny.

The garden's tidy now but very bare. A rake, a shovel and a wheelbarrow was all we needed to do the job.

I hope Hawkwind fans won't be disappointed to learn that Priyatelkata's follow up single was Pasta Dutchie From...

Yes, ex Prime Minister

Nice one Paul. Your coincidental things would all be funny if they weren't such a scarily accurate description of the awful reality. And Sunak's still got a week to go so there's a strong possibility you'll have enough material for episode...

Mystery

Posted on Mon, 24 Jun 2024

Oh I love it when I come across a mystery while I'm walking through deserted places. And isn't it always the work of the faerie folk? They're capable of anything, particularly sending our minds off in wild directions. When my Nan was alive. if...

Maria of the Two Houses

Posted on Sat, 22 Jun 2024

It's really sad. There aren't many leaves on the trees and their aren't many birds around since the storm. It's very quiet in a garden normally filled with birdsong. I'm hoping they've gone somewhere else but I have some doubts about their...

New shoots
