Two Minds.
Spirit fly like eagle soar,
Flit between two sides open door,
Touch my very soul,
Virginal white,black as coal.
Open mind feral delights,
Dionysian days,Bacchanalian nights,
Intense bloodshot mind,
Extreme gift of my kind.
Crescendo erupts mind eye,
Never experience 'til you die,
See world kaleidoscope creation,
Can't explain use imagination.
By Matt Harmston.
So if I head over to Bowderdale tomorrow or Saturday, I should be able to have a 'clearish' run to the Calf and back, perhaps?Quote:

Yeah, you should be fine. Bring your long johns though as it is bloomin' chilly up there still. Very little shelter from the wind depending on which way you climb.Quote:

Buffalo make some great kit. I've still got a pair of salopettes that I only wore once as they were just too hot.Quote:

A 'friend' bought me a pair of their pile/pertex 'supporters' - a kind of 'specialist' underwear, which according to the Needlesports website are usually reserved only for stag nights and hen parties. But this winter....:)Quote:

Buffalo - Supporters
http://www.needlesports.com/acatalog/bufsupporters.jpg Fiendishly uncomfortable and bizarre looking creations in shiny black Pertex and fluffy black pile. Most purchased stag-do present in the shop.
Waist size M roughly equates to 32 inches (80cm), but hell, who cares, I mean are you really going to wear them?!
I'd love to see what they look like! I bet they are blooming warm though. :D

Wow...HHH, you are on fire with the haikus tonight! Brilliant. All the Bronte posts have been great too and just right for my run today during which I was up to my thighs in snow drifts at points and the snow seems to have turned to sandpaper...has anyone else had their legs scoured by it?
Hey Tri...it's also good to see you on form as usual!

Baggy trousers, Hat and cane,
Pathos,comedy cinematic brain,
Up there with the other genii,
Life is comedy in a long shot so smile.

Never mentioned this on here before but i have an absolute passion for silent comedy and have many books and dvd's.Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton being my favourites.
I like that Tri and also the little bit of info, it is good to know more about friends on here.Quote:

I like a good chocolate candy bar.
I would even eat chocolate from a jar.
I want to eat chocolate all day long.
Eating too much chocolate may be wrong.
They need to write about chocolate in a song.
Some people eat chocolate just to belong.
I would even eat chocolate in my Froot Loops
I would even eat chocolate with a big group.

Dark chocolate with root ginger, gorgeous;)
Its the best I can do Merry! I'll try and bring some real stuff for you at a fell poets' meeting.:)
I am drinking a cup of root ginger tea with lemon and honey with the choclate as I don't have any of that delicious Green and Blacks ginger choc. Great poem!Quote:

Sitting down to the first cup of tea.
I crash my car, and turn to tell you.
Our daughter does her first perfect forward roll.
I get my first ever published poem.
I make dinner.
I drop off.
You certainly have a talent Matt, goodnight mate;)Quote:
