Your blog made me think that was what it was too. Typical to have two important poetry things on the same day! <br />Er, silver jubilee - you mean you're only 25?! Mind, your 25 years of writing makes me hardly out of nappies. I've still so much to learn, masses to experiment with and sadly so much grey hair so the years are flying in for me far too quickly. Oh to be 25!Wigeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658296735414768407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16639447.post-75123389638604938692010-04-25T14:27:18.009+01:002010-04-25T14:27:18.009+01:00wig- how did you know I was in the gutter later th...wig- how did you know I was in the gutter later that night?<br /><br />Family and Friends Railcard, actually. <br /><br />I didn't start young either.
