I read it in my late teens or early twenties and remember enjoying it. Think I still have it somewhere and should re-read it :)Quote:

Aye up H you are not illiterate just have possibly spent a few hours of his life doing something better than I ance did. Hod did you change your name dude and also loving some of that stuff afew pages back the poems with onlt few words in aline nice.....;)
Days
What are days for?
Days are where we live.
They come, they wake us
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in.
Where can we live but days?
Ah, solving that question
Brings the priest and the doctor
In the their long coats
Running over the fields.
Philip Larkin
Focus.
Sometimes the voice in my head talks to me,
Forcing me to do stuff lose my dignity,
Well i won't let it control me anymore,
Broke free of the shackles knocked down the door.
No longer me to the power of three no more,
Cast aside just one now to the power of four,
I shall write poetry and roam the fell,
Give me eighteen months and i will run like hell.
Focused and clear after such a long time,
Chemical haze disappears i rise and climb,
Now i can concentrate on the two things i love,
Never to falter astride the fells looking down from above.
By Herakles.
Intense Focus.
Minds arrow,
Straight fell,
High runner,
Victorious conquered,
Natures best no,
Longer holds fear,
Lines short clear,
Words all that's,
Needed.
By Herakles.
I changed my name by PM'ing Brett with what name i wanted minutes later e mail received and sorted.
nice one DT love a bit of Larkin
Long lion days
start with white haze
by midday you meet
A hammer of heat-
whatever was sown
now fully grown,
whatever conceived
now fully leaved,
Abounding, ablaze-
O long lion days!
A moment along the Cornish Coastal path
Around the Headlands turn, I ran
Ancient landscape torn and born again.
Relentless; granite bastions spread
into the oceans roar like a pianists
Fingers.The waves crashed against
them; stretching notes, which ended in splutters
low against the sea blackened cliffs.
Waveswere split and hung in the air
like frothy Constellations.
Lovely neil :)Quote:

Fellrunner.
Moving forward legs like lead,
Wind through my hair,
Thousand thoughts run ahead,
I'm hurting but i don't care.
Hale stones like tennis balls,
Fat bloke says your all bloody masochists,
We hardy lot are joyous souls,
He would never understand our love of this.
Don't do it for fame,money or ego,
The love of life and of the fell,
From the peaks we watch the valley below,
Running atop of the world you fall for it's spell.
By Herakles.
breaded snowy cod
served between freshly sliced bread
grilled or fried?
Hello Herakles...i love the line "synapse firing legs"Quote:

Likin the sentiment Stolly! one for me to follow i think!Quote:

Delicious between slices of bread
Worth the cooking smell that lingers
Coated in Heinz brown or red
Cooked by frying or grilling
Served with mayo or sauce
They really are quite filling
And loved by kids of course
Ready when crisp and gold
High in good Omega 3
Eat them before they go cold
Especially at Sunday tea
Fab DT :pQuote:
