  • The Mask.

    If I could meet a hysterical figure, it would probably be Oliver Hardy. I would like to know why he was so cruel to little Stan. Seriously any bully would do even Hitler, I would love to know the workings of these bent and corrupted minds. Surely love is easier than hate, it can spread Read more

  • Cyber Tooth Tiger, Two.

  • Commas, and Colons Float in My Eyes.

    I’m reading my own book, over and over again. Searching for typos before the final print, I know it’s an impossible task, ‘cause people will still find some. Commas, full stops, semi colons and brackets, float behind my eyes. I just hope it’s all worth it and I win the Booker Prize Book I write Read more

  • George Don’t Do That.

    This prompt reminds of the late Joyce Grenfell, in her monologues, she was always telling her pupils to leave things alone. “ George don’t do that” It’s time the little children that run our world, should leave things alone, the moon included. So no I don’t want to go to the moon, I like seeing Read more

  • Lazy Days and Bun Days.

    Do I feel unproductive on lazy days ? Yes. ! That’s an honest answer, but I have been taught, doing nothing/resting, is actually doing something, it’s resting ! That lesson was not well learnt though. We all need rest and recuperation, but this modern life makes us feel guilty if we are lax. Lazy Days. Read more
