...fellow bloggers!!! But here I am, back and blogging free!! So, whats been going on in the world of me...
I re-joined the gym...yes that's right, I enjoy the punishment. Seriously though, I ain't getting any younger, my body isn't getting any slimmer...and I wanna keep going as long as I can because of all the enjoyable things I got to look forward too.
Concerts - well, I went to see the Queen musical 'We Will Rock You' which was absolutely brilliant and more importantly, a hell of a lot of fun. Last night I witnessed the legend that is Bob Dylan...Bob Fu**ing Dylan!! Supported no less by Mark Knopfler. To say it was good is an understatement...it was a pleasure and an honour to see a living legend. Coming up I got Alice Cooper, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Deep Purple and Lee Evans...nice!!
My winning poem, 'She', was published in the November issue of 'The Writing Magazine', which gave me a real sense of pride and hope...especially when reading the comments made by the reviewer.
My first book has been completed and sent off to a self publishing company for them to give a once over before giving me the OK to publish. All that remains is the front cover - a rough sneak preview of which is below - and the back photo of yours truly...I haven't decided on arty moody photo or ordinary honest one!!
Work is still work - an evil necessity. Christmas is just around the corner - 75 days away. English weather is still as unpredictable as ever - rain, sun, rain, sun. And the world continues to turn - thank god!!
So until next time, hopefully not as long this time...lets get to it!!
