  • Boy Scouts Hooves.

    I haven’t to told this story to many, especially the man concerned, and he doesn’t do internet, so he will never know. It’s a couple of years back now, and this chap came to me needing help, he was trying to help a single parent who’s little boy was hyper active, and had broken the Read more

  • Losing Track of Time, and the Plot.

    Undoubtedly model making, then a close second writing this blog. Last year we had a general election here in the UK. I had loads of fun writing satyrical manifestos for each of the parties, then I did my own. Obviously it’s no longer topical, but hopefully it will give you laugh, and I need to Read more

  • The Unlucky Man

    Another tough prompt. My life has been an adventure, but now I’m old and feeble (exaggeration) the adventures are not so big. I am famous for not having any sense of direction, I once went to the toilet in the cinema, ended up outside and had to beg to be let in again! So my Read more

  • The Tea Party (Not in Boston)

    I remember a while ago, well two whiles ago actually, because I heard it twice. A play on the radio, where a group of people including Bob Dylan’s manager were sat around a table in a restaurant.

  • The animal kingdom.

    Spirituality has a massive impact on my life, it is possibly the thing that scares me the most, second to greed, and these two things are linked inextricably. The thought that people can be manipulated and controlled so easily is obnoxious to me. The sooner we learn to control our own destiny the better. It’s Read more

  • a ghost story.

    Hello readers, today I offer you you a little ghost story, I challenged myself to write a normal type story, well it’s not quite that, but I hope you enjoy it. Todays Dylan quote “ My patron saint is fighting with a ghost, he’s always off somewhere when I need him most” Good Eh? Please Read more

  • Hello World.

    Hello World.       I’m a self confessed technophobe, I started expressing myself with stories and verse on a blackboard outside my home. Rain and chalk though are not a good mix! So after years of pushing myself, and a surprise turn of events, I now have this blog thing, which has the longest domain Read more
