SCRUM ~ Skirmish of Childish Rough and Unruly Men !
Thanks ANDY ~ That is why in my playing days (14 ~ 30) I always played Footy and always in GOAL because it is illegal to tackle a GOALIE ! Because our Schools Head\'s Son had nearly died on the Rugger Pitch we only played Footy and always won the Inter-Schools Trophy ! England really went off the boil in the Six Nations ~ and were even beaten by France and the Auld Foe ~ SCOTLAND ! Thanks for scrumming ~ BRIAN !

Fabulous game which is often baffling to us who are familiar with the rules - I do wonder what our friends across the pond make of it - bit like American football in reverse (which completely baffles most of us here in the UK) . Enjoyed the write Andy.

Goldfinch,

Really liked your piece, which is a great analogy of how you see a journey. So much truth here
* just to say is the last but third line meant to read importance?*

Great poem

Gold,
I certainly agree with the comments made!
By the time we realize how simple it could have been, we will be gone!
I enjoyed Richterā€™s ā€œSleepā€! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the clip!

I was not distracted reading this fine poem, Gold. I forget - were there many distractions in 1066? Well, one anyway, when I said \'Look up\' to Harold.

orchidee said:

Oh lol, good write Gold. Oh, I worry about whether \'?\' or \'!\' should be included in inverted commas (or speech marks) or not. It keeps me awake at night ya know, these sort of things. Then I start thinking a lot - a slippery slope, to be sure!
I mean - we don\'t actually SAY a question mark, or exclamation mark, do we? heehee.
I miss out some punctuation on purpose in my poems. I add it where things may otherwise be unclear.
