The Corner of My Dreams.
orchidee said:
A fine write Gold. Erm, I discovered a locked gate round the corner. I jumped over it, and fell in a bog. I wondered why it said \'Keep gate closed - No entry\'. In 1066 that was. Lands were more marshy then, yes? Doh!

Thats a truly great mind picture. Like that area of the moon but not so barren the \'sea of tranquility\'.

dusk arising said:
No the guns havent stopped you\'re so right. Sadly mankind seems responsible for repeating the same mistakes....... So there are those of us who would do otherwise.... the pacifiers..... Chamberlain comes to mind.... what IS the answer when faced with a regime which demands war? I\'ve no answers. So the next evil regime forces us to repeat...... as always was.... so shall it continue????? I wish not.

It really wasn\'t all that long ago was it Andy - and what a mess of wars in the time since...... and more than ever before they have become political ploys to deflect attention from rotten agendas... it makes you despair.... all those beautiful young men.

Andy,
I hadn’t heard that song in a while! It was nice to hear it again! Thank you for posting it!
As far as working from home...
Many do take advantage!
Of course, there are others who are conscientious and do not take advantage of the choice they have been given!
I enjoyed the the read! Thank you!
My love to Joyce and you!

Oh but we are so worth it............. (she says as she sees both of you squeezing into tighter and tighter corners of the house)........... hee hee.

The admin who worked for my lawyers after I left last year has already left..... apparently my boss \"was being mean to her\" because he got annoyed that she wanted to go home whenever she thought it was all right..... \"because the lawyers do it\".... well of course they were working 24/7 wherever they were - conference calls on the train, in the car, at breakfast....... I feel a little guilty that I left them in the lurch....... And have always loved the song too Andy!

It\'s not really an \'olden days\' thing. It\'s plain rudeness and selfishness, I think.
Some would not dream of \'just not turning up\', whether for work or for whatever situation..
Ahh, the \'working from home\' thing? Are they? Or is it an old chestnut?

Out of the window I am afraid. Even when I was working there were many who claimed to be working from home - well they may have put a bit of time in but seemed to be pursuing their own interests for the rest of the day.

Cali Kittana said:
Ah, hair dye. I actually just had to scrub my bathroom sink because the bottle fell on accident. But the stain on the wall is too little for anyone without OCD to see. I understand fully what it\'s like to have to clean up dye (And the obsessive nature of having to redye it.. Once my roots show, I panic.) A wonderful and sweet piece. I enjoyed reading it.

I guess all of us guys had a similar place. My first such place was the Vaults of the Trent Bridge Inn or T.B.I. as we called it, right on the corner of Trent Bridge Cricket Ground.
I think you capture the atmosphere and camaraderie of these watering holes. Being a part of such gatherings gives us something we take through the rest of our lives - as well as the thirst of course.

Yes lol. In some kitchens it may look like people have been throwing the food around the room while preparing it. Some staff canteens can be horrendous. And let\'s not get started on some public loos. \'Abandon hope, all ye that enter (some of) them\'. Of course I only use top-notch public loos - John Lewis or M&S. lol.

Thanks for taking us to The George with you Andy...... now I can say I\'ve been to a real UK pub. Delightful but I\'d have to have a Pimms cup as I\'m not much of a drinker (get dizzy almost immediately - figures).........

You are such a BLESSING UNCLE ANDY with your heterogeneous music selection. I find dear Pavarotti heightens all my senses ! Love your POEM : Brian (who has a misspent Youth) was teaching me to play Arrars & Bridge both classless pastimes. Technically I am only \'A white wine for the Lady\' but back in Essex one the Steakhouses : serves Honey Beer and I like that ! I have travelled the World a bit but nowhere else can duplicate the ambience of a British Pub not even Dublin : but I do like the crac and the Come-day : Go-day Irish Bands ! A perfect narrative Poem : I was there and again all my senses were heightened. Such Poems make me Homesick for the Essex Snug and a glass of pre-Christmas GLUTWEIN ! Love to YOU & JOYCE : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
