Tom Edwards' Poem "Why I don't drink anymore"
Thanks to my friend DeeJay for pointing this out to me - it was on a BBC2 show. An excellent summary of alcoholism I changed because I have the sickness of alcoholism, alcoholism doesn't come in bottles it comes in people. You should have seen me. I drank for happiness and became unhappy; I drank for joy and became miserable.

Now then my life was made a touch my complicated by the appearance of the Paul Brett signature 12string. This is a slight oddity in that this is a parlour sized guitar which to be honest wasn't my initial desire but has received rave reviews and also has been designed as a 12string from the ground up - unlike the Gordon Giltrap which is an adaptation of a 6 string design. Not unusual to be fair most 12 strings ar...

ReplyDelete@Cynnie - why not? The Romans were here for 400 years there's every chance I have Roman genes in me... I work less than a mile from where they made their beachhead in the initial invasion and for many years to come.
