Your comment re: Hey'up is very much appreciated.
I'm not the greatest 'performance' poet, but I have the feeling it might be a good one to perform - maybe after 4 pints?
The 'poets with their prissy prose' bit was something I thought I'd put in as a sort of poets in-joke.

I think your 'wow' comment may be one of the nicest comments I could ever hope for.
I'm not much of a 'performance' poet, but, with a fair wind, I might give it a go sometime.
Thanks again for the time you took to read the poem, and the comment

Both Myself and Stella Jones are delighted at the response to our 'Poets Corner' event at 'Glassfire' in (Sunny) Hoylake , Wirral (right by Hoylake Station)...
On Tuesday night we had around 40 people attend with 20 Poets reading and it is only our 2nd month!!
Poets travelled from Bolton (Rachel Bond)....
and Wigan (Elaine Booth- Guest Poet) Isobel Malinowski and Joy France and with my co-host Stella Jones it made Poets Corner an even more elegant evening...and the Poems were great as well!!
Elaine judged both Hara Willow (Hoylake Poet) and a newcomer - Steve Smith to be joint winners!
Although I know Elaine said it was a very close run thing!..Thanks to both Elaine and all poets...Graham

I Am delighted at being judged the winning Poet 2011 at last months 'Wirral Ode Show' at The Stork Hotel in Price Street, Birkenhead...it is a great honour!
Thanks to Jason T Richardson..Mo and Dave Costello for a great night..I think all the poets had a great time!...I certainly did!
All the best to Mo who is taking over the show from Jason...am sure it will continue to be a great venue for all poets to go and 'strut their stuff'....

Good Luck from Graham Robinson

Dear Elaine,
thank you for your kind comments and I have re-read 'Old World ' and now find myself totally drawn into it. I used to live in Berlin , near the Wall, and once when the seasons were turning in the park ,Tiergarten, where there were ruined embassies untouched since 1945, experienced a moment such as your poem captures .Your craft recalls me to that moment ,painfully unconfessed imaginings.Oh regrets, I have a few!
Would like a re-read of your closing piece , if poss. stephensmithster@gmail.com

Hi Lynn.
I have,hopefully,
better explained my reply to you
in my poem 'Hypocrite'
if you would be so kind as to read.

the previous comments
were something of a dogs dinner-
this being due to having just arrived home
after a hectic day
of playing referee
in trying to keep two of my Grandsons
from knocking each other out!

my brain seems to have got back
into gear now-haha!

thanks love.

Hiya, John - safely back home eventually - what an epic trip back you had last Thursday!

Thanks for your comment on "21...". Yes back in the 80s (giving it all away here!) there was still some industry around then. And always the wind. Britain's Chicago!

Hi John, 'A Winter's Tale' ta for commenting. Perhaps this starts off the silly season prematurely - had to get something in hand for a poetry group reading (Christmas bash coming up all too hastily). First attempt at a monolgue as MC calls it. Have left a similar comment on my blog. Cheers.

Thanks Andy for the great comment on In Hope of Wonder..sometimes the clipped lines are needed to create a mood..and this was sposed to be disjointed anyways like a flit of thought.

Thanks for commenting on In Hope of Wonder.. I was trying to set the scene, the mood with the first half..it is meant to be disjointed and I used the short lines for that purpose..As when you are looking at something..seeing without any real focus and thoughts flit through your mind?..no?..perhaps its just me Ha!!

Thanks for your comments onn BSA Bantam, MC. I suspect your Black Vincent mate has a bit more mechanical know-how than me. He may have trailed all over the world but I trailed oil all over South Yorksire.

Hello Greg. Thanks for your thoughts on BSA Bantam. I always preferred riding the bike to being pillion, which was terrifying. I once sat at the back of my mate doing a ton "daarn the Saaarf Mimms" on his Honda Goldwing. I opened my eyes when we got there!

Thanks for your comments on BSA Bantam, Nick. I still remember its reg, KET 28F. I think it was a 1968 model.
My worst memory is overtaking (very, very slowly) a pack of kids on Fizzies (those souped up Yamaha mopeds) and being chased by them. A set of traffic lights saved me as I got through them just before they changed.

Impressive bunch of stuff you've posted, Richie.
I checked out the rest after reading Obsollete Airline Beverage. I particularly liked Your God is Angry with You.
You should check out MC Newbury's stuff. I think you'd appreciate it.

I'm wondering if you know Winston, site adminstrator for new joiners. He is a juggler and entertainer too. It is an unusual career - very rewarding, I would imagine.

You're better off with an oldster in a motorised cart, tartan rug and all, than a gorilla swinging a golf club! I think I go

Hey, thanks Cynth for your note on Biblical Imbecility, glad you liked it :) Yeh, kind of what I was getting at,the lunatic interpretations of what is essentially a bulgy-eyed hysterical part of the whole - although have to say some of it's great! Was thrilled with the 4 horsemen!
