I have had a couple returned to.... Mau are you still playing? I am getting all confused now!!

I am also a week behind... have just written and sent out last weeks.... I know, it just came to me while I was in the waiting room, and had to write it down as soon as I got home. I am sorry I am so slow!!

I have had all the new ones returned... but I might have added them incorrectly. I am very good at doing things like that.

Hubby has just read mine, and he says I should put a *tissue required* warning up, the daft 'aperth, lol

Love

Daff xxx

Hi everybody I'm back home and have just logged on to see lots of emails :O)
I'll probably read some tonight and perhaps answer tomorrow.You've been busy,but I'm sorry to see some have left,so hello to any new members reading.

I have a couple of ideas,one which will 'tie in' with the senses theme.

Thursday suggestion if anyone wants a 'topic'

'If a picture paints a thousand words...'

Take a favourite painting ( or photo perhaps) and look at it for a while then write a story / poem about it. (or explanation of why it moves you perhaps ) You can write about the actual painting or take the theme of the painting as the theme of your story.

For a rough example, and maybe one everyone will know,' The Mona Lisa'...what made her smile? lol

I have a watercolour of a woodland glade ( the most expensive object I have ever bought 'for me') I always feel someone or something has just left the scene and if i just look quickly enough......

Evening ladies, I have sent out some more potential members' emails, just now. Hopefully that will have arrived ok.

I have said that we will send out some pieces this week and let the new members see what we do :))

Putting a short poem out in a minute, in case I'm out tomorrow.

Daff, yes thank you for yours I am going to copy it to Word just to make the text bigger for my eyes lol...I usually print off to read (in bed ) but just run out of ink.

So Thursday for 'Senses' send out for those who wish to and on Thursday I will put another topic for those who want to be 'driven harder' ;)

Me, I am staying... did I send my last one to you? *Frets* I know I have sent to people who need a break... sorry, please just delete... but think I have missed some folk out.....

And I am late. I am always late.

Rambling Report 9 May 2010 19:05

ok can we go with Ann's suggestion re 'senses'

touch, taste, sound, smell.... sixth sense

perhaps a situation where one of the above is heightened or made necessary?

Rambling Report 9 May 2010 19:02

Right you 'orrible lot! Whats all this talk of deserting... BC get yourself back here please... Teresa, Stella I can understand that you have lots on at the moment...but hope you both will return asap...

In the meantime, and my apologies for my tardiness in responding, I hope others will continue to send out to me and i will get round to sending out also ( oh yes I will whether you want it or not lol)

Now then...who is staying ? if some are I will sort out some 'exercises' and 'topics' and raid the llibrary for ideas if nec'
