28 Years Later

My word I can’t believe that 28 years ago this month I met my best friend.  Who would have thought it?  We have been together through thick and thin, there have been highs and lows but like any relationship you have to work at it. We can remember that our first argument was about the size of a killer whale, I think I said it was as big as a house.  Goodness knows.  Anyway, we have had some other disagreements since then but when it comes down to it we are still there for each other.  I think we also know when we need some space and so if we don’t hear off one another for a couple of days it’s not a big thing. Ms James is my best friend for many reasons.  I know she is always there, she is very good at advice although can do with listening to her own wise words now and again, but can’t we all.  Also she doesn’t judge.  I know I can tell her anything on this planet and she won’t judge me and be nothing but a friend.

A Year On

I tend to not like to blog too much about serious things, as it can all get a bit bogged down.

The next few months passed in some what of a blur, but luckily I have amazing friends who were there for me and pulled me through. I kept myself busy and developed quite the social life for myself and so I was never left to mull in my ...

Steam Punk Burlesque Show

It was the night before Christmas Eve All the creatures were stirring even the burlesque tease The stockings were hitched up the legs with great care Hoping everyone would be in good cheer. The guests were snuggled and of all ages While visions of steam punk burlesque danced on the stage With people in their fishnets and some with top hats It was a glorious sight as a matter of fact. When from the side of the stage there arose a clatter The band was now playing getting better and better Away to the dance floor we flew like a flash Bopping and jiving with a slight Russian sash. The evening was quick to draw to an end However we made a good couple of friends Their car pulled up and numbers exchanged We had to run to catch our train We were too late as the train just pulled away Another hour we would have to stay To the chippie we went to have our fill Then to the waiting room against our will One more hour our train was delayed, Luckily we were merry so we weren...
