The Compliments keep coming

Alan Place- Short Story Writer 

The Fantasy Writer

A few minutes ago, a fantasy writer in the USA complimented one of my short story collection, then said he wished me all the best in my writing.

I had to inform him, I stopped writing years ago, the compliments are nice, and I am grateful for them, but they came too late to save me as a writer, a decade ago, they would have given me some hope

I could earn a fortune in the USA

That is no ideal claim, as I rarely drink anything stronger than coffee, I would be the ideal Designated Driver, the majority of my eBooks have sold in the USA, so the possibility of a writing contract may be high.

A lady on Twitter, last night, said she thought I was American. This is not knew, I've been told that many times over the years, the reason is as most of my sales are in the USA, I write in a style they can accept. I was told by a friend in Israel, several years ago, I think like a Jew.

Recently, I have discovered there are many grannies in the USA who would like to meet me, what a shame I am in the UK

Sex in the 70s 

This month, to my delight, I have been offered the possibility of sex with two grannies, not at the same time.

One lady "claims" to live in Bristol, but as she keeps refusing to meet me, I have my doubts on this subject, Clara is younger than me as she is 57. The other lady, Svitlana, lives in Oxfordshire, and is a couple years older than me at 74. Though Oxfordshire is 100 miles away, it is easy to reach by train, I'd rather travel 100 miles knowing I will meet the lady, than 3 miles thinking she'll give me another excuse. Clara knows I don't trust her, and she is on borrowed time as August is getting closer.

I also have the offer of sex with a young lady in her 30s from Taunton, Somerset, who visits friends in Bedminster each weekend.

I only met Svitlana as I was exploring, for my benefit, the opinion of ladies on how they see me, as I never considered myself attractive

 Sex in the 70s 

It would appear that on several Granny Dating Sites, I have become a catch.

I have had offers of sex from several ladies my age (70), and from some in the age range (57 - 75) I am interested in.

I put my profile on two sites, to clarify something to myself, as I am going through a rough patch with a lady in Bristol, I wanted to see if ladies do find me attractive.

Who's to blame?

 Cheats do win

Why cheat?

In the case of most sports, the players are the last people to blame for cheating, why?

Nobody with sense would risk being caught, unless they thought someone higher up the chain had their back, this goes from Mohammed Ali cheating to beat Henry Cooper, in a fight Angelo Dundee admitted to fixing, to the DeflateGate Superbowl.

Big as Deflate was, it was far from the largest, that happened way back in 1987 and concerned the SMU Mustangs. Though the team itself was small, the impact on the division it was in was huge, and it rocked the NFL for a decade, as the college was banned from playing its home games in Dallas for five years, and had no TV coverage.

The impact it had on the NFL was that it restricted the players available to be drafted for those years.

Gone with the wind

 World Cup 2026

Football Crazy

I can say with certainty I have no interest in the 2006 World Cup, the last World Cup I watched was the 1974 event. My interest in football died shortly after that as money became the driving factor, and stars rather than local talent took over.

The shirt I am wearing is the Middlesbrough shirt of the time, why Middlesbrough, it is the city I was born in, for the same reason I supported Yorkshire CCC for decades, despite their lack of success. I am an advocte for supporting local talent.

Lots of people say they would love to be a football manager, not me. Consider this, your job is based on success, and no matter who you are, there is a finite number of trophies to win, you have more chance to fail than win.

Why don't i use mainline trains?

I would like to have travelled more

GWR trains

To some people, my phobia about trains may appear weird, to me it is a real issue as I am disabled.

Several years ago, I saw a video of a lady who fell under a train, and got crushed, I thought, "that could be me."

There were many differences, the lady was drunk at the time, I rarely drink more than a pint of beer a day. My concern was that being disabled, the step down from the train to the platform is a risk for me. That is why I limit my train travel to GWR trains which have a lower carriage, this means I can step out of the train, straight onto the platform.

The restriction bothers me slightly, but there is a lot I can see in the Bristol area, if I wish to go further, I can use a coach
