The story of two Valentine's Days

 St. Valentine's Day

This time last year was possibly the saddest of my life, while others were enjoying the love of their loved ones, I was mourning the loss of my wife of 38 years, who had died less than a month earlier.

St.Valentine's Day this year is hopefully the begining of a new romance with a friend who lives in Redcliffe, Bristol.

Romance in Redcliffe

Clara and I have been chatting online for around four months, we have yet to meet in person, hopefully that will change this month

Latino Street Bites

 We Missed you

Redcliffe

I had a pleasant surprise this morning when I returned to my favourite cafe in Redcliffe, Bristol.

My friend, Michelle, who runs Latino Street Bites said she had missed me last Friday, she wasn't sure if I had been in as I left quickly as I had little money,

It is nice to think that in the few months I have been going, I am now seen as a regular customer, even though I only go twice a week

A Possible LBGT+ Sequel

 Lesbian Tales of Love

An Unexplored Genre

I have not written any LGBT+ stories, I have nothing against people who love others of the same sex, I never wrote about the subject as I didn't wish to offend people.

My romance, Secrets, though not intended as an LGBT+ story does have the possibility of becoming an LGBT+ romance, as the leading female character has a lady friend.  In the earlier part of the story, there is mention of a young man who prefers men to ladies.

My view on the subject is I find the prospect of two attractive ladies involved in each other as very erotic

I am aware of my attraction to ladies

Yesterday, on Zangi, I was approached by a young lady from Cirencester, Gloucestershire, for sex. I was amazed that such an attractive young lady would wish to have sex with me.

I turned her down for several reasons, mainly as I am trying to build a relationship with a lady who lives in Redcliffe, Bristol. Also in the back of my mind is the girl is younger than my daughters, she said I didn't do anything for her, and she never explained why she wanted sex with a man almost old enough to ber grandfather, who she admitted did nothing for her.

Also on my mind was the knowledge that years ago, I had been in this situation, I had participated in sex with ladies, and looking back I felt badly used, then discarded like an old oily rag

My friend, Michelle, who runs the Latino Street Bites cafe in Redcliffe, Bristol, keeps asking if I am on Instagram, so today I joined. Mainly to see if I could bring more customers to add to her success
