You wouldn’t think it given my haphazard posting on this blog but I do like writing here. Sometimes it just all feels a bit much and so I back away, probably more so I just have no motivation, but then times goes on and I see some inspiration somewhere and want to start again. Yes … More AT THIS AGE
If I close my eyes hard enough I can remember some of the details (although not all) plenty of years have passed in-between and whilst not senile I do struggle to remember some details. What triggered this jigsaw piece of memory was a shower that I have just taken. The beach is sandy and hot. … More A DAY IN THE SUN
I wish that I could take photographs like this and have the knowledge of photoshop to manipulate them in such a magnificent way.

The Sun had expanded many … More THE DYING SKY
One of the best pass-times that I don’t do enough of is sitting in a decent coffee shop, whilst it is raining (or snowing), people watching. I read somewhere else about other people that do this armed with a pen and pad and make notes on the things that they see and hear to incorporate … More WHILE AWAY THE HOURS
Normally this relates to that annoying song you may have heard last on the radio or TV. But sometimes, just sometimes it is a sound that you don’t want to go away. An incredible music track that has just finished. A storm that has just passed. You were lost in that moment and then it … More YUYIN
“I can hear them coming, we should leave.”“I cannot hear a thing.”“Then listen carefully”… hiss… “your hearing will be the death of us.”“Yes I hear them now, it’s faint though.”“It’s close enough, we need to go… now!” Smudge and Pickle smelt the air, they could smell the oncoming humans and also another smell, a far … More THE WOODS
