I'm good Richard thank you - haven't seen you for a while - have our paths failed to cross or are you keeping a low profile :-) - I'm at the Cadence festival afternoon in June and going to Bolton on Sunday - are you at either of those?

Hello Richard.
Danes Dyke - yes. In fact, we've just had a week at Sewerby.
The boats? I'm sure I will have as a kid. I'm absolutely certain about the Hispaniola, though; and bashing the Germans in Peasholm Park!

Hi Richard

you're nearly right - I'm on at Cadence on 18th July - it is my book launch event (book is titled 'A Step Towards Winter')but it isn;t really baseds around Poe - although 'That Which Autumn Leaves' is in the collection and a couple of the other poems are quite dark. Hope your reading of 'In The Belly Of The Whale' went down well :-) look forward to meeting you at Cadence

Glad you liked "Filey" Richard. You're right about so many of those other Yorkshire coast towns (I'm not so sure about Brid, though!). The attraction of Filey for me personally is its memories rather than any intrinsic character.

Hello again Richard. My husband was the stay at home parent for two years. So he has seen the pro and con of at home parenting. Your poem "Mother's Autumn" speaks well of this.

LOL - thank you Richard - I really enjoyed myself last night.

Performance poetry is all about hip action and don't let anyone tell you otherwise ;)

Thought your Blackpool poem had gone mate,was looking for it then found it here.'Sweet smell from pink hair to eat.Clowns of glass,elephants and rock.' Love it,but didnt it have a posting of its own with the brill pic?
I could taste the candyfloss,feel its sticky sweetness as I read this.'Charm,romance,beauty!nostalgia'
