Is there a set piece for this week?

Maggie, hope you are feeling better today!!!!! And hope you enjoyed the process of getting hung over!

aww thanks BC, I had heard that opening another bottle

was better than chocolate .lol (chocolate being addictive?)

splutters on my brandy :)

We shall make allowances for you, Maggie, on account of the great party you have been celebrating! (lots of chocolate and coffee is good for hangover) lol BC XX

To be making toasted cheese" ;O)

'she crawled underneath the duvet

Good afternoon girls. I feel the same way at the moment,keep expecting something to 'jump' into my subconscious but no....not a dicky bird :O(

Hope you're enjoying the bank holiday,we're having lovely sunny weather,can't recall when it last rained.OH has cut the lawn and has taken the hose to it,the garden's so dry.
He's off to a bowls match very soon so I'm now looking for some good threads
.
Mau XX :O)

ooh hello Ann are you enjoying your holiday?

Helen, thank you, yes I know you like my long pieces.
This is your correspondent in Tenerife on a cloudy humid day. Fiesta today so some ehart stopping moments while eating Tapas, when the fire crackers were let offf.

Rose, you could always write a poem about house renovation!!!

I have absolutely no inspiration whatsoever :( when i did start to write something...well, talk about 'Bonjour tristesse' ... pass the bread knife ! lol...

I need a really upbeat subject I think..but even then I would kill it stone dead lol

xx

I am bringing this back from the doldrums because, well just because I don't like to see it underneath all those threads and I thought it might feel a bit neglected. So, although I have nothing to contribute at the moment, I thought I should give it a bit of tlc:)) BC XX

Ann and everyone, I love reading your stories and poems. Although ( in the past) I may only have sent a short reply back, you can all be sure I have read at depth and thought hard about each piece. And that is what I think we all deserve because I know how much work goes into producing and polishing even the shortest effort. So because I know I can't do this right now I am being honest about it!

I don't think the group will fold: I think those that can will continue regularly submitting, and I look forward to it, and those of us with limited time will do the best we can.

I have to say, I do find I can write a piece about almost any subject in quite a short time, for example my poem a while back about pony, ice, lake etc, which was a real surprise to me! But I do want to be sincere in my replies to all us hardworkers.

Here's to the future!

PS Ann, you know I love your long pieces!

Will do Rose and thank you. (you think I know the answer don't you???)

Ann please send me your next 'untitled' chapter :)) Matt or Adam? ...it's intrigueing :))

have a lovely holiday !
