About Flying Gurnards: Haven't seen any Flying Gurnards lately. Still like odd stuff. And sometimes I do stupid stuff and call it spontaneous. True story. I also don't have travelling shoes. They broke before I left home (omen?) and since then it's been mostly bare feet and flipflops although I keep killing them and consequently am on my fourth pair. I miss home. And everybody that makes it what it is. I feel fortunate doing what I do where I am. And I am still full o' love for life!

Thanks for reading Flying Gurnards & Other Concoctions.


With tons of love, big hugs and sunny smiles

Spellbound

You remember, right? That one evening where you sat around a campfire or kitchen table in the company of a talented storyteller that had you hanging on each and every word? ...When breaths were held and you could hear a needle drop because nobody would want to miss a single word; and the edges of all chairs were overly occupied.
