i can understand people that dont bother to vote.
I have never felt anyone represented my views,so politicians dont represent me.
i usually vote for a minor  party just to be able to say that i exercised my right to vote.
being a straight white working class bloke i feel even less represented nowadays.   

another thoughtful piece Pete.

pete did you write this after the pub?(that might explain quite a lot.)
no seriously excellent writing again.
I am enjoying the whole conversation,although i feel like a voyeur
but then so many chordians are,read but dont contribute.     

I know what you mean,probably why i dont bother  much either.
But i have great chats away from chordie,there are a couple chordians that are keen to engage.
So we just do it that way.     

Hey Phill
i bought digestives in my shopping today,thanks for reminding me about them.
In NZ the govt wanted to bring in a ``fart tax`` because of farm animals causing methane .
Well that didn`t do too well.but im sure they will try again.
In a world that people seem to want more natural,the same people are buying lab made food.
can`t they see the contradiction??     

I cut the pointy end off chocolate digestives and then plug it in the seat belt.     

My goodness Pete you captured that all so well,brilliantly written.
you left out the part about trepidation and knocking knees.
a big pat on the back to those of you  who perform live,i don`t know how you do it.     

You guys are on FIRE !     

Zurf
looking forward to your songs.     

Isn`t it great we all see the world a little differently,and can agree to disagree.This is becoming a rare thing in the world
in recent times.I respect your opinion,especially as ive heard many of your songs and think they are very very professional.
I think if someone is trying to write a song that will be popular,they may have a different take on it to someone who is
trying to say something.I`m a big fan of your songs,so yeah you have written memorable songs.
many thanks for engaging in this conversation with me.     

This song was written by Peatle  to encourage me.
I was asked to read some poems i had got published in an anthology.
It was part of promoting the book.
The thought of being in front of people and talking scares the hell out of me.
The only line he didnt use in the song was when he said to me
``if you dont do this thing you will live to regret missing the opertunity``
