I have to duck often and have the scars to prove it! Yes very droll and would fit nicely into a book not necessarily a kids book. I suppose it's pointless to say keep em coming as they will anyway, so keep em coming     

As we get older we seem to hanker for our younger days. But would you really want to be 16 again? I wouldn't not in these days.
Back to your song, you've captured the essence of youth and young love Jim. I hope Mojo has time to record a cover.     

A nice beautiful and relaxing piece of music. The setting is also natural and peaceful. I may be pernickety here, but they're terrapins not turtles!     

It began good then hit the what do I do next button? Once the rap began it lost me. Sorry Brian not to my taste. Don't let that deter you from enjoying.     

This is exactly what's been bugging me for quite a while. I thought at first it was just rap music...two words that were never meant to be spoken
in the same sentence! Then along came electropop...think of a catchy line then repeat over a heavy bass and drum track until your brains turn to mush. These days there are some songs that are worth listening to, but not many, sadly. This could be an effect of my age. Never the less Brian an excellent poem.     

A thought provoking powerful piece, Pedr. It just goes to show that poetry doesn't need to rhyme to strike a chord! I think I may be the subject of this work...how did you know?     

Nice one Graham. I think all performers know this guy or his relatives across the country and probably world wide. Reminds me of the time I was doing a pub gig, and I never play too loud, never had any complaints anyway unless it's turn it up! Any hoo, this Irish fella was sat near the front went to the landlord , the landlord came to me and said turn it down. I was very annoyed and almost packed up and went home as it was quiet. During the break the guy came up to me and said thanks for turning down, I was talking to my mate that I haven't seen for years, you can turn it up again now cos he's gone! I tt uphought there's another bar in the next room why didn't you go in there? So second half I could turn it up to a sensible volume, but the rebel in me said stuff you pal and left it down quiet. Revenge?     

Thanks Jan. I had a special relationship with my gran and I'm trying to nurture the same with my grandkids and great grandkids. Unfortunately they don't yet understand my sense of humour. If they're anything like my wife they never will...ho hum     

It's great how once in a while something silly catches you and you laugh so much your face hurts and the tears roll and you get a stomach cramp. Let's have many more of them I say.     

Yo Jan. I tried emailing Roger to no reply but it seems he has another email which he does respond to. I'll ask him to get in touch.

I was chatting with an Englishman the other day and I mentioned how nice the weather was and he said bet it rains by the time I finish work, so I said yeah, sods law. to which he replied, in all the time I've been in Wales I've never heard a Welshman use that frase...well you have now

One of my favs comes from my mother, "be careful, if you come home dead I'll kill you" I think she meant it as a joke?     

The problem that I have with social media, Richard, is that its more like anti- social media. Everyone seems to think they have the right to slag people off even if they don't deserve it. At least on Chordie everyone is polite and if they can't be they keep it to themselves. We used to have posts on camping and sports and even day to day things. I wonder how people picking up a musical instrument for the first time get on with all the abuse. I think a few people have got famous very quickly through being " liked" on Facebook. Well good for them, but it's a long slippery ladder.
