Before i even got to the poems i found the intro relatable. About your favourite nature walks being those taken alone. I like to go on long runs. And it's crazy the things you pick up on in those solitary moments. Mundane things become very noticable. You've got a real gift to make those seemingly insignificant things sound as poetic as you do. Great stuff.

Thank you. Yes physical movement helps us decode mental mazes so often.

Ahh thanks for your update. Yeah I really miss what we had on there and your colourful inputs. I’m ok still at it but have decided to 100% avoid all politics with family and old mates in the hope of building trust again. I’m sure they will see signs soon - but when?!!!

Had a week in the sun with Jane and treated it like old times. That was nice.

Stood for council and an trying to educated those in situ. Most genuinely don’t realise what’s going on.

We keep trying 😊

I can feel another poem coming on soon too😂

Be good Julie.

Yes, the so-called ‘truther’ movement does itself no favours with in fighting and frankly, obsession. When we live and breathe it, we’ve already lost our lives. I see a lot of that.

Like it or not, we live among each other (well, until I get that cabin in the woods….😉) so I’m glad you’re building bridges with people you care about.

‘Be good?’

I’ll be naughty and amazing, thank you! 😊

Not bad. Up at my mum’s in Brid for half term atm. Off to Scotland in a couple of weeks with son, so looking forward to that.

Went to a carboot sale today and made a rhubarb crumble. Rock n roll, mate😂😂

Miss you on Fb although I’m not on there much myself. It’s not as fun as Twitter was is it? And even that sounds shit these days. Well that’s what everyone tells me- yet they all stay on it, go figure 😂😂You doing okay?
