I’ve had emails beginning ‘Dear Mr Curves’, ‘Hey Stud!’ and ‘Have you ever thought of being a model?’

Even my spam mail is taking the piss.

There were definite signs of Spring out there today. Glimpses of sunshine, flowers coming through, the solar lights on tonight. Will still be pissing down weekend, mind.

I’ve heard it all now. My Mum has been given a new sleeping tablet. One of the side effects? Insomnia.

About Me

I am still firmly anchored in the town of my childhood,which is in Manchester, UK, causing me always to be plagued by ghosts. I have a wife who keeps me grounded, and four children who keep me young. I love reading, writing, but not arithmetic.
