  • The Sociopath

    The Sociopath

    I’m going to write about toxic people again. Well about one person I know. A sociopathic woman that I thought I’d left behind a long time ago. Once she laid in wait for me to leave our town’s Continental Market. lashings of pretend Polish beer and strong vodka. She called…

    holidays

    Holidays abroad. Never really what they are cracked up to be in my opinion. But then in my experience it always rains. It could be Corfu in September or Spain and Greece in August. It didn’t just rain for an hour to clear the air. It was torrential and for…

    Found Photos

    I found this box of old photos in my attic last night. I kind of wish I hadn’t.

    Venice and the ape

    Venice ; the most beautiful city in the world. Indeed it is. I’ve seen it for myself. Four times and always in December when it’s quiet and beautiful. There is so much to see and it’s very easy to get lost. We were once, when for 5 hours, we tried…

  • Giving in too easily

    Giving in too easily

    I’ve just been watching one of those awful ‘Intervention’ programmes. This one was about heroin. Awful because of the damage done to the children and family members. Awful because they relapsed.

    The hard of heart

    When we were dancing the other night my mate next door mentioned that like her I started to get depressed after what The Witch Controller did to us. We both did. We’d spent a lot of time with her. I’d written a poem about us as I felt friendship I’d…

    Laughing out loud

    Last night my next door neighbour and I got a bit drunk and danced around my living room to Alanis Morissette on very loud and dressed in our pj’s. No one can hear us and we have a really good laugh. If this is me having a nervous breakdown then…

  • A letter to me..

    A letter to me..

    I’ve a feeling my sis picked the wrong person to message to about me in her usual passive aggressive tones. It goes as follows: ”Hi S, hope you’re ok. I know your friends with Jo and I was wondering if she is having a mental breakdown or something. She’s posted…

    ..not even an ounce of empathy

    I used to wonder at the encouraging comments re the new couple in town. He had coke falling out of his massive hooter and she was the bitch from hell. This woman had treated people that worked for her very badly. Left both men and women in tears, including my…

    Potatoes

    We started a bit earlier today on this Saturday afternoon. My pal neighbour A and I. Having a barbecue and several beers looking at the tomato forest. 3pm no less. It’s usually 4pm. We used to get told off about even that on the odd occasion we did by The…

  • I miss the musky paper smell and feel of a real old book and the pristine pages of a new one but my eyes are grateful for the invention of the kindle.
