Poem called Parks in the Spring
The enchanted smell of the flowers filled the air. The vibrant colour of the different flowers from red to purple to pink to yellow and orange made the parks in the spring exciting to behold as it was a beautiful spring look to the parks in the spring, with the radiant squirrels running up the tree with nuts in their…

What were your favourite school dinners?
I was having this conversation with my housemate at lunch time so I thought I'd ask you lot too! I don't remember much about the mains I had, just lots of cubed vegetables and mashed potato. But I definitely remember the puddings! Chocolate concrete with custard was a favourite. And cornflake or treacle tart with custard.…

Posts not showing
A number of my posts have received the 'will show after they have been approved' message. I thought maybe the first has triggered something, it's happened before when I've said a certain word the system hasn't liked, but all my posts seem to be doing it now. How do I fix this?

If you could appear on ANY TV show (even Crimewatch) would you do it?
Above. Over the years I've auditioned in person for Britain's Got Talent, Fifteen to One (back when Sandi Toksvig did it) and one of the old National Lottery Quiz shows. When I did BGT they wanted me to pop across to Manchester for the second audition in front of the Judges but Dad wouldn't let me go. Anyway, could you…

Share your favourite abandoned / derelict places pictures here
There is something that has always struck me about this picture, it was a very small picture so I had to use Ai to upscale it. The picture was taken in 1996, it was a mill? on a canal in Leuven, Belgium. It looks like a reflection in a partly frozen puddle or the canal itself, yet the name on the building is the correct…

Something to keep us going...
When things are difficult or threaten to overwhelm you, when you are suffering... what quote, mantra, wise words or perhaps something completely different keeps you from ruminating? If you feel you might lose yourself in a negative spiral, what do you hang on to? What is it that you need for relief? It could be something…

Do you get emotional when watching films? If so what film makes you emotional?
I watched the Barbie movie last night, and I had quite a few tears throughout. Some happy, and some sad. It was the same when I watched John Davidson's movie, "I Swear" not long ago. I wondered, does anybody else get emotional when watching films? And if so, is there any in particular?

A poem called Night Sky
The night sky is beautiful clear as the stars sparkle with beauty and glory and and the stars are filled with hope and possibilities and the stars are our guiding lights to success in our lives in the night sky and lie peacefully calm, bringing an end to any day with the night sky above

Weekly shop costs
I hope none of them will mind that I've "pinched" their idea, but I saw a conversation between @WelshBlue, @SheffieldMan1976 and @SoapySoutar about the cost of a weekly shop, and the suggestion that £58 is expensive. I have a number of dietary restrictions and also rely on some convenience foods, as I find food preparation…
