Here: a rare (restored and colorized) historic film of Mike arriving back.

Yup! Welcome back, Mike!

Here are 16 flash fiction pieces - each no longer than 500 words, and well worth reading. http://anthologies.authorshaunt.com/2011/cold/

'Please Come With Me' is truly terrifying, but a must read if you like dystopian fiction. 😱

It... might do?

Shhhh... It's a secret, but we have our own version: Emu Emu Ostrich.

I found some rather rare film of James' GMSUFU at practice...

CNN: Since March 16, when eight people were killed and one wounded in shootings at three Atlanta-area spas, at least 50 mass shootings have been reported in the United States. CNN defines a mass shooting as a shooting with four or more casualties -- dead or wounded -- excluding the shooter. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/04/19/us/america-weekend-shootings/index.html

Good grief, @synystraal, the hiatus ends in May this year, not 2030! 🤣 ...but some great suggestions. And since I'm in Wales Mihangel's Amser beckons. Ta. ---------------- Brilliant, and yet again I wept at the end.

I wouldn't want to be in the police. As someone with absolutely 'no skin in the game' I'd say ban guns. No guns = no awful killings. It's very unfortunate that the 2nd amendment isn't crystal clear:

But... but... but.... Whatever you're doing, Mike, be well, have fun, and see ya soon. 👍

Mine certainly does.

Ah, the old 'is that a pipe in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?' ploy. I like. Also, I concur: ce n'est pas une pipe!

Chapter four rocked... or symphonied, or some such. I've learned more about music in one chapter than I've ever learned in a rehearsal room. Go figure. I wish I knew a Mrs. Tordham.

Marvelous, James. Great to read, but even better read aloud. My hat, were I wearing one, would be doffed. Please cross post it to 'Poets' Corner' so it doesn't get lost.

Mayhap our root vegetable got out of the wrong side of bed, because, in my oh so humble opinion, that's a bit of a 'glass nearly fucking empty' review.

Ah, well then. What happens is: you pay me and I'll tell you. 😂

Ha! I must have the same brand of shower curtain. That's a lovely poem, Bruin. 👍

Cole; Mr. Parker; Guv. I profusely apologise for hijacking this thread, but I beg your indulgence for this last wee point: The World Is Going MAD!

Mrs Darnell is remiss. If you can't 'art' it's a doddle: 1) Two cans of paint - one red, one black - and a canvas... Mark Rothko did quite well. Or failing that: 2) Any old cans of whatever coloured paint you like, a canvas and a bicycle... Jackson Pollock. Or: 3) Trash your room, sell it Charles Saatchi for £250,000 and voila! Tracey Emin - who is now a member (and a professor) of the Royal Academy. The latest 'thing' are NFTs (Non Fungible Tokens), which let you sell non existent digital art to morons for a fortune.
