I read this with my lady eyes of course, as I\'m not a lad, growing up and spending almost my entire 20\'s in Twickenham on pub crawls with the girls, you just brought a whole new sensitivity to a lads night out. Superb Tom. 🤗

We can all get conned in our lives Tom but this will add to your life\'s experience and it won\'t happen again.
As I say, you cannot teach experience.

They\'ve told you the truth above, but with you I always feel that you have a wee bit of tongue in cheek when you tickle them keyboards for MPS, Tom!

It\'s the way you tell \'em, Tom - had me in to the very end.
I would have preferred \'Succulent Green Grapes With Just a Touch of Dryness Fields Forever\' but there you go, I expect its just a matter of taste.....

What a rip off! Sometimes I think you are your own best teacher. Reading your work, I think that you are.

OpenLearn from The Open University (O.U.) has lots of free courses. Don\'t know if any on actual poetry-writing - but you probably don\'t need a course on that!

Oh no! A one-off session?
Similar to Proof-reading courses maybe - which are very expensive.
I agree - you don\'t need them. Keep using that quill, as AP says!

You are a change agent, Tom. A random phrase and you burst through into a new reality. That\'s creativity for you. I\'m with you all the way, so long as torn pages don\'t evolve into book burning....
Enjoyable write.

the book may be closed but let\'s try and keep the pubs open .. otherwise another one of our old traditions is going down the pan & so many people will lose their livelihoods .. I think maybe the mafia is behind that too ..

write on brother Tom .. Neville
