Thanks for comment Winston. The only thing I know about Hebden Bridge is Arvon, Ted Hughes and that fine writer who lives nearby, Glyn Hughes.

thankyou for your comments win, always appreciated. I hope you had a wander to Sylvia's spot on sunday, I have never been but it is a beautiful cemetery.
Take care,
Marianne.
ps you can ask questions about my writing, I am not a completely closed person, i just sometimes feel abit out of myself regarding technique and form etc mustn't be so bashful with everything else.

Yes your probably right, it is time to have a peek and see what we have in our 'one big poem', (Woolworths pick and mix , another piece of history gone to the wall ) , you can have a go at jigging it about if you fancy old bean.

no, don't be spooked Winston, it's all part of the interconnectedness of everything.. yes, post it, re-name it if you like. So much in a touch. I had an aromatherapy massage for my Birthday (thanks Ellen/Clare) what can I say..touch reveals so much to both the one who gives and the one who receives, I think, in danger of getting very Indigo here but I can't help it. I wrote something too but have to save it for my dissertation but maybe I'll bring it along to next meeting,if I can remember how to read out loud..or leave my chair..you could read yours maybe too.

Hopefully see you around

Thanks for your comment on 'It's hard to be a mum' Winston. The women love the poem, some men don't like the swearing - what does that tell me? Women know exactly to the knuckle where I am coming from, understand the frustration and the swearing....I guess sometimes you have to have walked the same line to really empathise. I am grateful for your comments though - they are honest and I like that. x

Thanks for your comment Winston - look forward to receiving it. Yes I am well - a little tired as usual and cross with myself for not having written anything - but fine on the whole.
Will hopefully bump into you at some venue soon. Hope all is well with you and that the boat is still water tight. x

Thank you for your comments, they are really appreciated. On a separate note. I love your barge, just the dogs doo daas.
I have always wanted to live on a barge, my friends dad had one and we used to go on it, I loved it. At the bottom of my street is the canal with house boats barges etc - Horsforth-Rodley etc , I walk along some Sundays, beautiful.

Hi Win,
Lovely to hear from you ........ how are you? I've not been so brilliant, had a small operation last week and am currently holed up at home, bit bored, and talking rubbish .... but I'm blaming the psychesummatorother pills I'm on for that!
The video was great fun to work on, and the beauty of it is - it is Paul and Nat's work so I can disclaim it if you don't like it! But come on...you have to admit.... my rabbit is quite something! :-)
Hope to make another northern expedition in the not-too-distant future, see you then.
Take care,
Cx
p.s. .... thanks for watching it!

Hi Winston,with reference to my comment on your haiku, it was meant to be a little contradictory and refers to your recent working holiday because i don't know what the weather was like where you were.Thanks for your kind words as to the structure and of course it is meant to be a light-hearted response.Janet.x
oooh, i just noticed we can now edit comments. Yippee!
It saves me commenting again with my thanks for your comment on my other haiku.xx

Hi Winston
Thanks for your message
I enjoyed meeting the faces that appear on WOL.
I'll certainly try to keep writing. I'm not 100% sure about readings as I'm not the greatest social animal.
Time will tell
Again, thanks. It's truly appreciated

Winston, I passed through Hebdon Bridge last week, and so wanted to stop for a bit, but the three-year-old had other plans. The area was beautiful, quite unique, almost "Tolkein-y' Goodness knows when I can explore a bit. Such surroundings must influence your poetry.

Never have to 'hire' private taxis chuck - get enough offers of a free lift. Whether it were male or female driver would make a HUGE diffference. With a woman, front seat, having a chin wag. With a man, definitely back seat...

Hi Winston
I truly appreciate your comment on 'Time Flues'. I enjoy reading your writing, but feel somewhat inadequate when it comes to commenting.
For some reason, I also particularly like the verse that you highlighted
Thanks again. Perhaps our paths will cross at a reading. I have just 'read' for the 1st time. I think Hebden Bridge is about the furthest I may venture, not having a passport to get out of Yorkshire. I'll have to try and get enough bottle to stand up again.

Hi Winston
Thanks for your comments on Lost & Found. It IS strange how much significance can attach to a simple band of metal. I wonder if Tolkien wore a wedding ring.
I hope we meet one day, it would be good to hear you live. Well done for venturing on to Youtube

Hi Winston, thanks for your comment on 'old man at bar'. It seems a tenuous link to 'English Bond' but it was the starting point for me. Hope I can make it to Hebden next month.

To the Tardis I tried to run

Hi Win,
thank you for commenting on Turn Away. Kind of is children lost but as adults struggling to do what needs to be done and a sinister element intruding. Hope life is good in Heb, Deb xx

Gosh, blogging. I'm not entirely sure I'd know how to do that. But thankyou for the interest. I like the look of your barge, by the way.

hi win,
thanks for the comments. i do try to comment on a few but i get a little tongue tied most of the time so i fear I wouldn't do justice! I do greatly admire your work though and opinion, i hope i have not come across as a boring enigma.
thanks again, it is greatly appreciated. x

cheers Win for the suggestion on my poem 'Revenge''... Lot to think about with that piece as I actually wrote in about 5 - 10 mins for a friend shall we say who was having issues after she wouldn't write, so i may well go back another day and rethink it through but for the moment it made her giggle and cheered her up which was the full point behind it!

Hi Winston - thanks for taking time to read more of my poems :) As you say there is some variety in the style - generally I've allowed the topic to shape the style rather than adopt a particular style or method - except that overall I do have a preference for rhyme.
I'm just an ageing rebel you see and still find it's fun to experiment a little - all those years of rather controlled technical writing left a void :)
Best wishes
