Smoke No More.
Doggerel Dave said:
I’d sit up front on a double decker
And smoke a foul Spanish from my girlfriend;
Man behind said ‘’I feel like a kipper’’
Them were the days, now my cough knows no end.
All true: I gave up in 1987 after twenty years and feel lucky to still be around…..

I gave it up without starting. Well, I tried me first and last ciggy at about age 11 and it choked me!
It\'s terrible how many are affected by it. On medical progs, they say \'If only I had not smoked....\'
We don\'t see it some much now, except, e.g. staff having fags outside during breaks. I hated it when it was allowed on buses. I think it was only upstairs, but downstairs was often full by the time the bus got to my stop.

Enjoy the good life while it lasts. Live, love, and work together. Four hands are better than two but remember you don\'t have to do it all. Certain jobs can be hired out or even eliminated. It\'s time to live life to the fullest. Do what you can, but that\'s all.
Good poem on one of life\'s little changes. - Phil A.

I have observed that having something done for you isn\'t a sure sign of inability or laziness but could be seen as some other stepping out of their self caring to include you in their day and daily chores, a sign of caring, esteem, dedication, attention, connection... and a slew of other gratifying concepts. Of course we do not always see things that way. But when we do, it is as you have said, \'wonderful!\'

I’m not a marriage councillor my friend.
My relationships have not included
Such, which would have driven me round the bend;
Call me rum – This will not be disputed.
Each to their own, Andy, and the very best of good wishes.

Ten Sixty Six.
Doggerel Dave said:
Collapse of historical archives will be imminent
Once the truth of your account is verified and revealed:
For those who must care, history has no equivalent
Of witnessed events whose honesty cannot be appealed.
How can we be sure that all those history books will be recycled, rather than go to landfill, Andy?

Ironing Goldiku.
Doggerel Dave said:
I cannot understand this one at all:
Please do clarify this and give a call…
Your clothing doesn’t wick after you smooth;
Cloth should be full - this no more than the truth.
Three weeks after I left home, a very long time ago, I gave up ironing. Don\'t waste your life, Andy.... LOL.....

Brilliance Or Kindness.
Doggerel Dave said:
Yes kind people still do exist -
And found everywhere in our midst.
I fall over and am injured:
Strangers there, assistance rendered.
I have very bad balance.

Sometimes I do,
But not often.
Mostly I rue –
This don’t soften…..
Occasionally something comes in and causes toe curling embarrassment ...so thanks for reminding me, Andy.

Bad To Better.
Doggerel Dave said:
A self-help book by yourself is needed:
Then ”See page seven four nine of my book”.
But poems here would be superseded
And MPS collapsed – not a good look.
Stay on Andy – don’t go nowhere……

Help us to choose to be strengthened rather than to be defined (caged) or be destroyed by it. Ayaiyai!
