Got a phone call this morning
Knew a crazy day was dawning
Here I go again with my mate
We’ll probably end up at Hell’s gate!
I always hope for a civilized day
But usually there’s hell to pay
Initially we go for a few hours
Come morning we’re still out, the sun glowers
Today it’s London town we head to
Bored though I am of it, well trod boots
But it’s easy and withing reach
There’s always something it can teach
The city is so damn insecure
Corruption at its central core
But I ignore this as much as possible
After a few drinks anything is probable
So after some munchies off I go
By the Thames where people row
It’s a hot day so should be nice
May have a chinese, chicken fried rice?
The Angel on my shoulder please guide me straight
Don’t listen to the devil on the left, my fate
We shall see what today brings this autumn day
And where our weary heads shall sleep and lay

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
