The Hippies World.
John Prophet said:

What a wonderful world it would be.
Perhaps we need to prove ourselves in this mess to get to such a place.

Godo write Gold.
But I don\'t think Hippies, or Hippies alone, will be enough to save the world/universe.

Joy, Love, Sadness and Hate.

I do need the news to find out what my government is not doing on my behalf, as for the rest ....the choices are stark - reach for the Valium , the whisky or whatever, ignore, or become amused at the stupidity of the human condition and laugh....
A needed write, Andy.

Dear Andy, with sadness only bad news sells newspapers and gets the media excited. The good stuff is out there, we just don’t get to hear about it. Have a good weekend.

Tom Dylan said:

Wow, what a good point. Where\'s the good news? The only things reported are negative and worrisome. They should put on a positive news show, where they report on the good things in life. :-)

This is why I do not watch the news anymore. The imbalance is such that it warps the minds of those watching leaving the impression that all is bad. Well stated Andy.

A very English experience. Here, much the same only broadly different. Friends and a place to gather, was the similarity, but all else was different, beer not the same, games were far different, music was usually a juke box, but the friendship was the reason we remember it fondly. Thanks for the memories. - Phil A.

JulesBurnsit said:

Thank you, Gold for such a lovely visit. All the life we should never forget in our quieter years! Less darts, more cards; less company but more reflection, sadly less beer and more tea - but so long as we can relive while we live, so be it!!

Cassie58 said:

A trip down memory lane. The local, such an important place in my younger years. You have enriched my afternoon thinking about all the characters and fun we all shared. The Grapes with landlady Doris in the country lane where we lived was a frequent hang out. I used to play darts there:) Thank you Andy. Happy Thursday.

Good write Gold. We have a \'George\' about 2 miles from home. It\'s next to a river, which is prone to flooding.
I went there but they threw me out. You know why - the water! lol.

\"That day when I retired into my life\", an incredible line I will never forget. This poem, so beautifully phrased dear Andy, captures perfectly the life worth living, the love worth more than all the gold in the world. The perfect song, the perfect video, the perfect tribute to your love of life and Mary.
