Hi Yvonne
Thanks for taking the time to comment on my little piece 'Snapshot'
I found a couple of old photo's of me when I was a tot, and realised (from the snaps) how different life was for me, compared to what my Grandchildren are ploughing through
I've started scanning the important photos (with ancient relations etc) and noted the names of those who will fade from memory in another generation, and put them into a Powerpoint slide-show

There you are, Yvonne! I was getting Lover's Balls waiting for you to re-appear.
I hope you are keeping well and you mysterious disappearance was not caused by anything serious.
Have you dried up? You haven't posted any poems for quite a while.

Aye, aye, Y.
Thankyou for your kind thoughts on "A Toast to Craig and Hannah". Originally I thought of getting them A Toaster for Craig and Hannah as a prezzie but the pome was a lot cheaper.
(Not sure what you meant by 'well executed'. It wasn't a recommendation for me, was it?)

thanks once again for your comments on 'noticed' Yvonne - I'm glad you like the 'flag' words earlier in the poem - I had an exchange of views with Harry on this - I wrote them in early because this man lived like a ghost when he was alive - he was a ghost when he died. So you got it spot on regarding what I intended. Very perceptive as always :-)

hello Yvonne,
Glad you liked "Your First Hut is the Cheapest". Sheds seem to provide me with a lot of my inspiration, perhaps because I spend a lot of time in them doing nothing.

thanks for the comment on 'deadly nightshade' Yvonne - yes, I liked the single line ending, which turns it from what appears to be a love poem into something more sinister - nice that you picked that up

...and true, Yvonne.
The experience of meeting Tony Blair was informative.
He was introduced to me and asked me something. As I was answering I could see there was no-one at home. I couldn't blame him; he was dealing with international crises, economic issues. He looked totally shagged out.
5 minutes later he went outside for a press statement and as soon as the cameras rolled he transposed instantly into totally animated, switched on Tony.

Yvonne- miners picketed docks; miners picketed power-stations and motorway junctions- miners were desperate and upon occasion resorted to desperate measures, two striking Miners and one scab were also killed.

Hello Yvonne
Thank you once again for taking time to read my stuff. Ths one was done cause my 90 year old mum wanted me to write a "pome" about when I was a kid. (Another request was "sausages")
It is so pleasing someone enjoys what I write thanks.

Thanks for your kind comments on 'class action' Yvonne - you are right about the grammar and I've now changed it - added a post to the original so that it makes sense to anyone coming along later - thanks once again for taking the time to respond

Hello Yvonne.
I was advised by a friend to post stuff on here, so I did, a few at a time. Obviously not knowing how it works. Thank you for the advice on blogging. Also I am pleased you like the stuff I have done, you are spot on with FFS, I love reading that one. As I mentioned previously I am new to writing and am a totally accidental poet. I have no understanding of the structure of poetry or how it works. I sit, I feel, I write. Raw but real. Seeing that people actually read my stuff and give feedback is very reassuring and helpful. Sorry about the novelette. :0)

Hi Yvonne
Just like to say a heartfelt "TA" for your comments on my offering Home Sweet Home. It is an emotionally driven piece. This is happening to a friend of mine. As for cynicism I have to agree 100% with your observations. Governments present and past have become very adept at smokescreening and I agree (but this is a different matter) What about the people who have been repossessed? Another poem in the offing? I am afraid I am very new to writing and have so many ideas flooding through, I simply write what is in my head at the time. Thanks again for your comment, much appreciated. :0)

Hello Yvonne,
I'm so glad you liked my "Dog's Bollocks".
A bloke I worked with used to tell me I was like dog's bollocks in understanding anything. I took it as a compliment until he told me it was because I was always lagging behind.
I have been polishing my shilling non-stop since you sent me the invitation!

I've just been listening to your two songs. Delightful, especially "Kushagarnie" which has a timeless feel to it. Both are most appealingly sung. You are obviously a gifted lady with much to offer. Well done, you! I enjoy folk - The Watersons/Martin Carthy and the Fishermen's Friends...to mention some; and,of course, Country from the USA. They go to the heart of what it is to be human - with all its trials, tribulations and happiness.

Hi Yvonne - thanks for taking the trouble to
comment on "Paper Chase". I understand your
liking for the Daily Telegraph...a sane and
sensible "read" for those seeking one step up
in the search for information. I once had the
satisfaction of having a letter published in
The Times, challenging noted columnist and
broadcaster Bernard Levin about his use of the
term "agent provocateur". Those were the days!

Ah, there you are, Bonny.
I'd not been able to get at you for a couple of weeks.
Many thanks for your kind comments on "Frowns of Silence".
What I want to know is this: what were we boys doing at school when they taught you girls such classics as "If you don't know, I'm not telling you." and "Just imagine; when we're married we can do this every night".
Woodwork, I expect.
Who would want to learn such deadly lifeskills when you could be making a pencil case instead?
