It is Chill Time

 A possible collaboration with Mary Kubica

In conversation with Mary Kubica
A few minutes ago, I contacted the literary agent recommneded by award winning writer, Mary Kubica. I am not expecting a lot, as a pensioner, I don't have money to pay for publicity for the eBook, The Awakening, which is raising interest with several writers.
Clara - my love
Romance in Whitchurch
I am taking a short break to ease the pains in my left ankle from walking from Whitchurch, Bristol, where my friend Clara lives, to where I live, not far away in Hartcliffe. The ankle pain is a result of an injury I sustained in the Royal Air Force, which remained dormant from 1984 - 2011, when it returned and made me disabled

Bestselling Author scam
Amazon Bestseller
This week, I was contacted by bestselling author Mary Kubica, I know she is genuine as she contacted me via gMail, I have been contacted on Twitter by several people "claiming to be a bestselling writer, only to find the accounts has been hacked.
I asked Mary, how she came across my story, The Awakening, as it has not sold according to my sales record?
Apparently, it came to her attention via an online article. Mary is interested in where the story came from, and my experiences as a writer. I got the idea during a discussion on the British Empire with a gentleman in India on LinkedIn

In Praise of Older men

 The Appeal of Older men

Alan Place - sex toy
This morning I had to block another young lady on WhatsApp, she was attractive, even if her breasts were a little large for my taste. The issue is she wanted me to be her Fuck Buddy. I did that years ago, for several ladies, looking back it makes me feel like an old oily rag.

The appeal of older men rests in the fact we respect a lady, and in my case, her pleasure comes before mine. I don't rush making love, partially for health reasons

Buen Día readers in Chile

 Flavours of Chile

Latino Street Bites
A large number of the readers of the blog today have been in Chile.
I have a friend from Chile, she runs the Latino Street Bites cafe, in the undercroft of a church, here in Bristol.
I used to visit the cafe twice a week, but ill health has stopped me. The cafe is only a short bus ride to Redcliffe, from my home in Hartcliffe, but there is a hill I struggle to climb, and the last time, I almost passed out.
Other than that, I had three moments when I sensed was wrong as I crossed Bedminster Bridge

Abolish the Monarchy

 Vive La Republic

The end of the Monarchy
I think it is time to Abolish the Monarchy, until recently I had been a staunch Monarchist, but with the Labour Party, King Charles iii, and his son Prince William supporting Islam, they are going against the wishes of the population of the UK.
The views expressed in my award winning eBook (shown here) are mine, unlike some authors, such as Sara Paretsky, I don't get preachy, and tell you how the reader should think.
It is not up to me, to tell a reader that my views are correct, we make our decisions based on life experience.
I was in Germany in 1978, when riots broke out in the south, started by Muslim supporters, soon there were few cities without a riot, or a crimewave

Vive La Republic

 The end of the Monarchy

The Lost Generations
Until a few years ago, I was a staunch monarchist, that has changed.
King Charles iii, is a supporter of Islam, and from his latest comments, so is his son, Prince William.
It is oddly funny, the first King Charles caused the English Civil War, his son came to the throne after the ECW, and it looks as if the UK is sizing up for another civil war.
They are a disgrace to all the people who served in the Armed Forces.
It is time for the working man to take control, Vive La Republic.

Tropico 5

 From Tropico to Frostpunk

Tropico Focus
Now my "supposed" relationship is over, I can concentrate on building my Empire on Tropico 5. I say supposed as the lady concerned said we were in a relationship, even though we never met after nine dates.
Last month we were like the sun bathed islands of Tropico, since then, we have become more like the icy wastes of Frostpunk
We used to chat with tenderness and affection, l know how to write a romance
