We had some snow (just!) that had frozen overnight, which left the footpaths around my neigbourhood slippery and very dangerous. I few hours ago I spread rock-salt on several of the paths - in particular a quite steep rise that was lethal to negotiate - in a bid to make life easier for everybody.

"Heart Greatest Hits"
I've just bought the album, and have played it maybe half-a-dozen times in the past couple of days. I've always loved the big hits 'Alone', These Dreams', 'All I Wanna Do...', but it's the stuff I didn't know so well that has got me. I never realised what a fantastic band they were/are!

Leaving home this morning, I found a hedgehog in front of the gate, on my driveway. He looked like he was dead, but then his little chest rose up and his eyelids flickered. He is now snuggled on a soft towel, in a dark box. I phoned the vet (my mum) and asked what I should do. I suspect my dogs may have had a go at him but there are no visible marks or punctures. I have syringed a couple of drops of water into his mouth and hope for the best. He is very lethargic and hasn't even curled himself up in a ball. I don't think he will make it, but at least he will pass away in a quiet comfortable place, without dogs sniffing him or the crows pecking at him. It is a him, by the way. :-(
Bless you!
Do you have an update?
He died. We buried him in the pets graveyard in our garden. :-(

There's a right time for both of them. Ofcourse nobody likes to be the target of critisism, but that doesn't always make it unjust.
Scubadiving or skydiving?
Skydiving. Freefall is as good as good sex.
The future or the past?
The future...
The past is a dark place inhabited by monsters in human form for the most part...
fame or infamy?

The Idolater Unrequited
that's brilliant Andy
Thank you...
but didn't you find him (or her, for that matter) a little creepy? I did not intend the poem to turn out that way, it just did.
BTW I agree with you about the language and content: It's getting out of hand...

The Idolater Unrequited
You leave me breathless,
Excited and aroused
But ultimately frustrated
Ours is a love than can never be
Not that it's wrong or anything
Only totally impractical,
That's all.
You are so far away,
Socially and geographically,
That our paths are unlikely to cross
Anytime this side of hell freezing over.
Besides, what would you want
With the likes of me?
I'm nobody
I'm just the guy who worships
The ground you walk on
Who is transfixed by your image
Every time I see it
On TV or on a poster
Advertising your latest movie
You are a superstar
I'm a fan
I always have been
Right from the start
When you were up and coming
And making a name for yourself
I was a fan even then
Your number one fan
I love you
I know what I feel is real
Even though I also know
You will never love me the same way
It doesn't matter
The way I feel about you means
I forgive you anything.
Maybe you do know
About me
And how I feel about you?
Maybe, but unlikely.
It's my favourite fantasy
The one I imagine most
When I miss you.
Maybe I'll make the effort
To come and visit you
In your grand home
One of these long lonely days.
It would be amazing
To meet up at last.
Would you like that?
that's brilliant Andy
