Time shifter, Still got the hat and the beard

,

40 years on

The hats got mouth holes in it and had the bobble cut off,

I've had bits cut out but not lost my marbles.  

Halloween, as we watch TV with one eye on the front-door.

Always enjoy Halloween, a good time to meet the Mum's, Dads and kids
of our community, and reward them for the smiles and banter of the last year.

And I get to eat the leftovers.  

Must still take it easy

The Operation for Prostate Cancer was 2 weeks ago,
moving about is still limited, but life with out the catheter
that came out a few days a go, is less restrictive,
but still tiring.

A not so beautifully beaten up and well worn van
just a few roads away from my home.

Looking on at progress

The wild life, Mr Robin and the Black Bird are giving the
garden a wide berth during maneuvers
and reconstruction, only the new comer
Mr Bumblebee is unfazed by the changes,
as he smoothly glides between the Forget Me Nots          

Don't Cross The Line.

The garden is now getting it 2013 makeover,
the washing line had to come down,
 enabling the large containers of trees and shrubs
to-be dragged about like scenery on a  film set.

History painted over and sanitised. to chase money from
the wedding industry.

a bus ticket to Memory Lane,

as a small boy riding on top deck

of the red root master bus, the conductor

when dad pay would reel off a extra extra long ticket

just for me to play with, why this memory today well

my poetic rants seem to stimulate  a wellbeing

confidence, as I typed that, I felt the two fingers rise, 

I'm taking daily notes on a tillrole 

to keep them in order, and to be a little eccentric ,

this is never going to evolve into a rant is it ?

Maybe next time ? a

Every woman deserves to look her best
but their is some thing about the
original picture hat gives it an edge 

Yes! Byford gets Gold

Not a ten seconds sprint but a 

fourteen month marathon,

Its just a matter of keeping 

Dry on the cloudy days.

Easier said than done.
