Birthdays and Poems

Running was lost last week due to another birthday. This time it was our grand daughters turn. The week was spent composing and illustrating a series of poems for her and putting them into a book format. I will probably tidy it up and publish it on Kindle as I did with my other book Reflections Tall Stories and Short Poems. Watch this space. We travelled to Essex to see her over the weekend and visited Southend while we were there. There were lots of people of all standards running along the promenade. It looked a bit boring; flat, windy and dodging pedestrians. Coming home on the M40 late Sunday afternoon we saw two Muntjac Deer grazing on the grass verge. They took little notice of the large volume of cars speeding by. Running must start again tomorrow although I also pencilled in for more pruning if the weather is OK.
