Riding the cusp between imagination and reality…
Yesterday I swam for the first time in almost an eternity. My last swim was in 1B.C. (before covid 😭!) my brain no longer tracks dates with much ease having been blessed with living in Leicester (aka Plague Central) and locked down for 16ish months… People talk about the New Normal… I can barely remember […]
Read More Swimmingly WellThe trouble with words is that you never know where and how they’ll land. A few weeks or so I recieved a text. It was out of the blue… Hmm… No, that’s not quite exact, it was unexpected… Not at all out of the blue once I thought it through … It had just taken […]
Read More R.I.P.plesYesterday pulling out of the layby I felt the grin spread wide across my face as I chuckled away. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Mr S quietly shaking his head in disbelief, which of course made me laugh louder… I don’t know how you did that? I didn’t answer and […]
Read More Psychic SatNavIt’s been an odd week… Day after day of failing to hold on to thoughts… A week of intending to do one thing then straying off into something else, not exactly procrastination as each time the something else is something that needs to be done but my attempts at keeping my intended order of doing […]

I hit my brakes and called it a bastard as I managed not to […]
Read More Because…This morning got off to a miserable start. The clocks shifting forwards from GMT to BST always leaves me feeling churlish, a feeling not improved by a lazy wind, the kind of wind that cuts through you rather than go around you, that made 10°C feel like 2°C at best. My first batch of passengers […]
Read More Something In The AirIt feels like a long time since I last wrote on here, which is an odd notion for me to be feeling given the sporadic and often erratic cycle of my scribblings. I guess it feels like a long time as I drew the image above intending to write about it, and popped it into […]
Read More Out Of HandThey say you shouldn’t have favourites but I guess the nature of being human is that invariably you do. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? I dunno… It’s a thing… I think maybe it’s nature’s way of balancing things out… It’s been a week of mostly losing the will to live… A […]
Read More There You GoReading the email for the third time, she still couldn’t quite fully believe what she was reading… What was this? Some kind of joke? Surely it couldn’t be serious… Please, she thought, let it be a joke… An off beat and badly landing joke would be easier to comprehend than the notion that the words […]
