  • The Family Thief.

    It’s just over a year ago now, I was in hospital with my burns, I was in a mess, but it didn’t stop my sons girlfriend, now soon to be daughter in law coming to visit me. Jenny is the best thing to happen to us, for a long, long while, we love her to… Read more

  • The Great Circle of Life

    I do have a morning routine, of course I do, but no one wants to know about the habits of a four ring old Bart like me. So today I’ve written about a much more important routine. THE GREAT CIRCLE OF LIFE. I can hear the beating of my mothers heart, as I wait for… Read more

  • Worthy or Unworthy.

    I don’t consider myself, clever enough, skilled enough or lucky enough (As is the case with most autobiographers) for me to think people would want to read about me. The first line then maybe should read “If you are reading this, get a life”. I would much sooner write about others, mostly bringing to light… Read more

  • Boy With a Moon and Star On His Head.

    The supposition here in this prompt request is what physical gift? I find that a rather shallow and mundane request. I will indulge in a bit of shallow thought before todays poem, because it’s unusual and some may find it amusing. The best gift ever bought me was from my wife it was an angle… Read more

  • You Are Looking in the Wrong Place.

    One of the things I was most scared to do was yesterday’s post, some of the subject matter. was quite taboo. Tackling the matter of overpopulation is never easy. The last time I approached the subject on my blog, even a close friend misinterpreted my intentions. So I will repeat I am not espousing any… Read more

  • We Are Many and They Are Few.

    I never complain, about how people are in denial about how this planet is over populated by humans. I never tell people we cannot carry on growing our population, and each new addition wanting to use more resources than the previous. I wouldn’t dream of complaining because the majority of the population only believe in… Read more

  • Winner or loser ?

    The UK National Lottery has been running about 30 years so every week for that 30 years I haven’t gambled a single Pound Sterling So that’s £1,560.00 I’ve won, You see I just don’t do luck, not of the material kind any way, I have tried various competitions, lotteries raffles etc, but never won anything.… Read more

  • It’s Not Me It’s You.

    What would I do differently ? Well, almost everything ! Please read on this isn’t an ordinary love gone wrong story, there’s a twist ! It’s Not Me It’s You. You say it’s not you it’s me, but that’s not really trueYou want to know why I can’t forgive the crazy things you doYou want… Read more

  • Shopping List For a Better World.

    I seem to suffering from on complete lapse in concentration. So here is my naive shopping shopping list. PEACE Pop (All the mega rich peoples bubbles)Eggs (Just the good eggs, not the bad ones)Aspirin (To get rid of this Putinous headache)Chicken (All the armies should be)Egos (We should get rid of them) Apparently, egos are… Read more

  • Sing Me a Song.

    This is a subject that fascinates me. My theory is I was lucky, I was born in the mid 50s, so I grew up in the 60s and 70s. It is possible that I was protected from it but I don’t remember the all pervading aggression and violence that dominates the media now. It’s everywhere,… Read more
