A view from the box: Archive

Words haunt me......

I mentioned on Twitter today that I’d discovered a box of containing bits & pieces of things I’d written many, many moons ago and that I’d share some of them with you all - for your amusement. Some of the pieces of paper are faded, torn & very fragile, dating back to the 1970s. This really is a box of wonders for me and I’m thoroughly enjoying the memories and...

Attack Of The Clones

Every wished you had a clone? I know I have, especially on those days when there seems to be just too much to do and not enough hours in the day.
