Very true At the time we feel its right but time tells us it not true and that is what experience is all about. Thank you Andy for such thoughtful words

I believe that without making decisions that are eventually wrong we won\'t be able to make the right decisions in the future. Beautiful write dear Andy!

So true Andy.
I think it goes hand in hand with \"let us not judge a man by what he achieved but rather by the obstacles he overcame along the way\"

I have memories of steam train travel as a kid, I worked with them later in Oz and on visits to the UK have sought out steam rides when I could. For me thereās something mystical in that kind of steel creation (I love Victorian engineering).
The irritating thing is that a small corner of my mind cannot erase an image of the way those iron horses came to degrade and pollute pristine countryside as the rail network was developedā¦.

the worst aspect of Time, for me
is its lulling lope of indifference
if I close my eyes
I\'m back, to that childhood field trip
begging for the day to end
yearning for that something, I urgently
couldn\'t wait, to begin
and yet, dear Poet
I remember the long day
but forget, what it was I was so desperate
to rush towards...
that\'s what Time steals from us
(in my humble opinion)
our inability to realise, in the moment
what we\'re truly wanting to achieve or experience
and so, as my ears bring back
that incessant train track, drum line
of regret\'s heartbeat - I too, listen and sigh
deep
wishing, wondering: will today be another one
I will allow, to pass-by
without realising, what I really cherish
in my now of life?
(such a deeply contemplative write Andy
had me rambling-on, in this haphazard comment
forgive me)

Evesham of course sits on the OWW railway. Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton rlwy nicknamed \'the old worse and worse\'.
The famous poem Adlestrop by Edward Thomas celebrates the long gone station at Adlestrop on the OWW.
You can catch the great atmoshere of a steam train \'slow train\' by taking a ride at non holiday times on the local SEvern Valley Railway (kidderminster to Bridgenorth) where it calls at several tiny stations each with a great atmosphere of their own. Or the west somerset railway at Minehead.
Yes, I\'m a fan of preserved railways but not the crowds they attract.

\"Always look on the bright side of life....\" And you do Andy, without exception - should the Good Ship MPS ever hit an iceberg and sink, your light would be the last to go out!
I can smell that bread from here - definitely time for tea.

I suspect I\'d be howling at the moon by the time I reached that stage, Andy.... Believe it or not there are otherwise reasonable people who still believe that the level of madness rises in the population at a full moon. āStill, this is the age of conspiracy theories et al, so why not throw in some superstition tooā¦
Thanks for a nice polished little gem which allowed me to have a good vent, Mateā¦.

Smaller Balls?

Funnily enough farmer Giles was just saying how his little coq managed to sneak into the smallest cracks in the cowardly wire ooppss chicken wire.
Red balls often appear swollen compared to those pale white ones or shrivelled blue ones.
More tea vicar?

you never know, Andy
in modernity\'s landscape of gender ambiguity
\'beg your pardon\', is the Only response we\'re afforded...
crazy times, my friend
(but thanks for the laugh
hope you have a great weekend,
some torrential weather expected next few weeks
we best make the best of this last remnants of summer)
once more, its passed - far too quick
