its true, we take so many
of everyday amenities? for granted
but those before us
lived perfectly fine without them
for we\'re proof, that they did!
really like the flow and internal rhymes
such a wonderful story telling feel to it all
thank you! Andy

Wow - - what a thrill despite the cold hear to hear Apache again - takes me back to battling the winter in the Cotswolds years ago and that area can get really well below zero -- hoping you stay warm with that gas oven on and cooking your meals today Andy.

Wot no central heating?
That does take some beating:
Gas oven substituting -
Climate change not reducing….
Ok if I term some of these insertions of mine \"mock quatrains? Alternatively , you could consider them a pioneering attempt to extend the form........LOL!
Evokes terrible memories of my childhood until I moved to the Australian tropics aged 13!

I don\'t know how long a business had been open - probably since the Stone Age - but I read a notice including: \'Staff shall take it on a rota to collect buckets of coal for the fire in the winter season. And ask permission to use the (outside) W.C.\'. Brrr!
Even - pencil sharpeners are available upon request to the Office Manager.

Here all must be happy you found your way:
Wish it could be the same for everyone;
For some not possible at end of day -
Those without access to a race well run.

Cooeee, Gold. How\'s the day been? Now a song - arrgghh! \'Now the day is over\'.
Sang it at Primary School, sometimes as a class before the school day ended. Probably started me off singing! heehee.

And therefore what else need to be said?
Here’s a day complete unto itself.
Also nothing there to do with pelf -
It’s peace and tranquility you spread.

Of whisky?
Don’t bother to send me that whisky you promised, Andy – you need it more than I do….

It\'s that thing: \'Some may think there\'s a hurricane tonight; don\'t worry - there isn\'t\'. The famous October 1987 words.
Only about 10 more days then it starts getting lighter again.
They used a lot of grit for when it was 40C maximum in Summer - remember that?
How was weather in the Dinosaur Age for us two?

It\'s awesome!
I just hope it\'s not just a muddy sludge by the 25th
(and now that we\'re out of the eu
they won\'t charge us a premium
when we inevitably run of salt and sand...)
but great memories for the covid generation kids
i\'m happy about that!
(a lovely read Andy, thank you!)

And It Snowed.
Bella Shepard said:
I love, love, love snow, so thank you for this lovely poem. I must have been around 5 yrs old, and I can remember getting up one Christmas morn, rushing to the window, and seeing no snow. I was crushed. So far winter in my part of the world is not cooperating, so I will enjoy it through your words.. Great write Andy!

I hope you understand I am going slow.
Not interested in snow, you sound keen though;
No point in pushing a very long rhyme -
\"I’m going outside and may be some time.\"
Captain Andy Oates, your sacrifice means a lot to me.....
