The Shower
On Board He was down on his luck and saw an advert in the paper. It was to take part in a trial which would involve being monitored on a two week Caribbean cruise. A suit and wardrobe would be provided on the cruise so he would fit in with the clientele and not be noticed by them. He had to follow certain patterns but nothing too rigorous.

To Stay Happy
Introduction This is one of those things, a confession, that I write when I feel I have nothing to write about. I don’t like to be always writing poetry, although that would be much easier for me, but I always try to write on a different community platform, although there are usually many things that can inspire poetry as you know if you read my rhymes.

Introduction When I was in the Bok the band leader Andy Marshall described instrumentals as "Songs Without Words" and we had a few of those, though none made it to our demo tape that you can hear on Soundcloud link below (the pic of my ugly mug) if you feel like listening to something John Peel described as "primitive" and Stiff Records just sent us a pre-printed rejection letter. Rabid wanted to put out "Happy Birthday"/"Mystery Band" as a double "A" side single but they folded before that happened.

The Writing’s On The Wall
Introduction I don't know if it's similar for other people on social media, but I sometimes think a few days off Facebook and when I come back there are lots of notifications in the Facebook Groups that I am part of and I feel that no one has missed me or really needs me there, and maybe I should just stay out of it.
