Maybe it is because of the summer months but i don't seem to have had much to read lately, although poetry seems to be getting more popular and that has been lovely.... :-D

Stella

I manage to reply 90% of the time re your stories/poems.

If I have missed the odd one sorry, will go back at some stage and check.. I know there is one of Les's I haven't answered and have not listened to Stella's one yet.

Must update my chart as well.

No problem Rose, when you are ready. Maybe now is the time to write that deep dark story <3

Sorry all I haven't written anything this week ( last week lol) or managed to reply to everything sent. I'm in one of those deep dark moments when I can't put words together, too much white noise, both inside and outside of my brain!

Hopefully will pull something together for next time. Thanks to everyone who has sent work :-)

Any inspiring topics that might spur me into action? :-)

Ann. Just a few things to sort out then :-D :-D

OH and myself no longer go on holidays abroad these days
too much hassle.

Emma :-)

Mmm! Emma brain fog is the trouble. You have no idea how many things crop up when you are planning to go away for 4 weeks. Well maybe you have. We've had a cistern overflow leak, a car that has had problems with the battery running down, garage couldn't find anything but a man calling himself Autoelec has just been and found two problems which he has solved. OH fixed the cistern. Now the car has to go in for its service (More money it's a merc!), which involves both of us as I have to drive mine to fetch OH back etc. Then there is the chiropodist, the hairdresser, last week the hospital check. and then daughter and her OH need a bed Friday night so the sheets have had to be changed on the spare bed etc. And it is a week before we go!!! Oh, forgot the trip to town to get euros. And the ever growing garden of course. Is the holiday worth it??? 'course it is, but we'll need it. :-D

Ann forget about it I would if going on holidays.
Priorities darlink :-D

Emma :-)

I am way behind this time, haven't done a thing so far, too much to do before our holiday. :-)

To all who sent me your work and I haven't
replied personally, thank you. Have enjoyed all pieces.
Put it down to an age thing :-(

Emma :-)

Have a lovely time BC :-D

Please forgive as I wont have time to read and comment for a bit...just in case you think I am ignoring! Keep on writing and I will catch up reading! :-D BC XX <3

No problem Mau, I did say no prompts this time do your own thing.

Received your poem thanks, very good. :-)

Hi gang :-)....I'll send my verse out tomorrow ( once I've sorted out format) it should be easier to read than my lanterns.....well I jolly well hope so :-| :-D

Ann sorry, I haven't used any of the suggestions for my verses, as I find I use words/phrases that (hopefully) pop into my head.

maybe so.... :-)

OK Stella, I would think the problem was with google at the time, maybe doing an update or something.

well it seems to be sorted out now Ann, after yours eventually all came through at once... others followed..i think my connection to you must have seized up.. sorry about that... all appears to be mended now.... :-)

I've had no problems with emails Ann, I also am on Googlemail, and though I delete some emails ('promotions') I have literally thousands just sitting there, I'm too lazy to sort them out ;-)

I think my e-mails must have forever storage... himself has to archive his and he keeps everything and I mean everything.. I do delete lots of GR notifications, promotions and advertising malarky...


Stella is on the same e-mail system as Janet, you and myself so I would not have thought that we could create a blocking when we send to each other.

Maybe I should not reply to Stella either :-S

Stella I have not replied to your last e mail because of you saying my emails are blocking your inbox. I can't for the life of me see why that should be. does it give any reason. Which e mails has it happened to? The last one was just a reply to yours.


Has anyone else had a problem with e mails from me? Nobody has said so far.

Have a good trip BC. Not doing so well myself with the writing because of pre holiday catch up jobs etc.
