Hello Friend,

The dust has settled after the excitement of organising the launch for Dear Maggie; it's time to get back to work.  We had a good group of friends and family attending. The lovely Rima from @caferima2204 and her friendly staff kept us hydrated and the event running smoothly. Thanks Rima, for providing a great venue for our event.





I'm happy to report that my new MS is taking shape at last and I hope to have it completed by the end of January. That is the plan; 'but the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.' Acknowledgment to Robert Burns "To a Mouse."

cheers till next time

He never buys us anything.” “I know Pet, don’t worry about that now, let’s get to the shop before it closes.” We continued down the quiet street; unusually, it was even too hot for the boys to be out playing cricket, with the light car traffic, they got a few over...

 hello, Please see another instalment to my new story. I'd be interested to read your comments. Thanks for your time. cheers Gen Chapter 1   Sandhill Cove, which got its name from the sand dunes that stretched a half-mile south along the beach, was a small seaside town that time forgot. Somehow it grew out of the national park surrounding it, a single road connecting the town to the highway. Folks from the highway towns referred to Sandhill Cove as a one dog town since the trains stopped running to the timetable. While the station-master (as he still referred to himself, despite the closing of the line) Mr Edwards, called it a two-dog town; his and the local butcher’s. Bruce Lindsay, the publican preferred to think of it as a one-horse town, it didn’t have the ring of abandonment as suggested by the one-dog handle.
