Abandonment

Yesterday I read a heart breaking article written by a middle-aged man. It’s taken me this long to recover from it. I’ll summarise his story. When he (the storyteller) was young his powerful, rich, well-respected father walked out on his wife and children and left them to defend themselves. Though it was never said – […]

All I did was send an email. 3 little words and a ? Are you OK ? Well. The NON-reply said nothing and EVERYTHING. Like – I AM NOT THE NARC. YOU ARE! Shrug. That told me EXACTLY where I stand in the pecking order. AGAIN! Note to recipient of email – It was a […]

Oscar Wilde understood this sad TRUTH all too well. Sometimes what is on the outside is NOTHING like what is on the inside. We just have to accept and move on.

So there was I watching Creeps, thinking about those who are OVERLY obsessed with death and strange meat and Red Mercury when the “yougotmail” bing binged. Can’t make this up :o(

I’ve talked before about a certain delivery man and how He can’t believe that I don’t believe in landing on the moon stuff. He’s just delivered 3 parcels. HIS side of the conversation… I had such a good laugh last night. I went and looked at the Flat Earth Society page. God, they are complete […]

Veritas

Monday, 29 June 2020, 12:25.Reading time less than 1 minute.

Many years ago I researched and wrote a short novel titled Veritas. It centred around Paris, 17th century, the #first theatre there, their pre-police police force and Louis XIII’s brand new (?) Jardin des Plantes. I never published. Veritas became such an over-used word. Which is not a crit of Sean. Just life in general […]
