You're My Best Friend
I recently had some , to use Orwellian parlance , doublenotgood news, but I am in a very good place. Much of this is due to the support and love I have received from all my friends and family and I always have a positive attitude.

Should I Read or Should I Go?(and Write)
I get drawn into reading stories on Vocal. This probably affects my normal book reading Right I'm just actually going to try and do this by talking into it. I do like writing and at the moment have got 7 pieces in train on here.

A Perfect Storm
This week I had an absolutely awful day mentally. One day I was chatting with friends and Vocal friends on Facebook , working and chatting with work colleagues then my Friend Krista asked me for help moving a table so I had a couple of hours with her and her friends , and for the first time in my life actually went into the Byker Wall.

Home
A very short poem about how I see the concept of home and how it should provide a virtual sanctuary away from the pressures of life outside that bubble. With the lockdowns and covid that has become even more important for us to deal with the pressures of life.

Days
In my current job I am a very small cog in the system , but small cogs make a difference if they do not work. I provide support to the finance department and we are constantly having to extend our remit of what we do , regulating organisations to benefit everyone in our nation. I don’t want to say who I work for , my friends obviously do, but I started here about six years ago after finishing with a job based forty miles away.

The Witch Of The North
This is a tribute to my friend Sophia , The Witch of the North , an incredibly talented, female friendly and lovely tattooist in Newcastle. Sometimes girls may be wary of male tattooists , Sophia will put you at ease. She is on Instagram and Facebook , and we nearly played in a band together once.
