The New Catholic Express

 A growing Roman Catholic following

Romania

Though I am not overtly religious, and post few articles on religion, in the last week my blog has gained a following in Roman Catholic states such as Mexico and Romania.

This upsurge could be the result of my numerous posts on Spirituality, and ghosts

Why do people think I still write?

 Matthew Paul Turner

Children's Best Seller

Last week on Twitter, I was contacted by  Matthew Paul Turner, a New York Times bestselling chidren's author.

He complimented me on how long I was a writer, then I had to inform him I stopped writing about five years ago. If the cchat follows its regular pattern it will go like this.

Why did you stop?

I couldn't sell my eBooks.

You could be waiting for the right promotion, I can ut you in contact with my lterary agent, if you wish?

At which point, I say thank you, but as a disabled pensioner, I can't justify the costs

Farage breaks the Law

 Professional Details

Why you shouldn't vote for Reform UK 

I thought NIgel Farage was bad, but now he has crossed the line.

The THREE-time loser, in a desperate ploy to win respect for his failing Reform UK, has published details of a proffesional photographer online, He has now become a criminal.

The only people legally permitted to do this are the photgrapher, or his representatives.

Muslim Hypocrisy

 Sex sites on Reddit

                                                       Never trust a Muslim

One good reason NOT to trust a Muslim is they are hypocrites.

One of the reason I left Reddit is I spent so long blocking Muslims trying to get me to join their sex sites.

I'd spend hours each day, blocking hundreds of sites, mostly from Egypt, I got to the point of blocking anything from Egypt automatically.

It is forbidden for the women to go out showing skin, but not for the men to sell their bodies to strangers. Another good reason concerns a 5-year-girl who was sold to a man of 50 for marriage, when she died of horrofic injuries during his sexual advances, her parents said it was the will of Allah.

What parent would sell a 5-year-old girl to a man of 55?

Also, they strap bombs to children, then detonate them, what type of sub-human would do that?

Yet, King Charles iii, and his son Prince William say the way of Islam is the way the west should accept.

In the words of Golda Meir, "There will only be peace in the MIddle East, when the Arabs love their children, more than they hate the Jews."

In which country is my blog read the most?

 Buenos Dias Mexico

Where is the UK?

Being a writer in the UK, you would think my blog has a lot of readers here, you would be wrong.

The USA, close.

The blog is read most in Mexico, by a long way. That raises the question, where does the UK come in the list? The UK is 8th, above Pakistan. For some reason, my blogs have never been widely read in the UK

Am I being Haunted?

 Am I trying to move on too soon?

The ghost of Linda Mary Place

I realise I could be, and I probably am , overthinking the occurences, but I am begining to wonder if I am being haunted by the memories of my late wife.

 

After she passed away, in January 2025, I said I wouldn't consider another relationship until the following April, I had a lot of family issues in the period to get through. The key word is CONSIDER, I had no plans for another relationship at the time, I am 69, and never thought a lady would wish to form a relationship with me.

 

However, when I returned to Twitter in Spetember 2025, I was beseiged by ladies asking to meet me. Many I disregarded as the lady didn't appeal to me, lots were young girls seeking a daddy figure, I couldn't form a bond with a girl young enough to be my daughter.

 

The change came in November, I was contacted by a lady called Clara, who lives near me, in Bristol. We got chatting, got on well, and transferred our chat to WhatsApp. While Clara is over 10 years younger than me, she is showing real interest in wanting to know me. 

 

The early part of our relationship was plagued by missed dates, which I take the blame for as I was going to the wrong area of the city, through a misdirected notion. However, since February, I have been going to the correct area, and Clara has been beset with incidents which stop us meeting.

 

I know my late wife wouldn't wish me to rot away, and the children are happy to let me move on, rather than be secluded until the end of my days, but I do wonder

Who needs Omens?

 Fate is against you

Will we meet?

I don't need to tempt Fate and the Omens.

I am certain, they have made their minds up Clara and I won't meet.

The distance from where I live in Hartcliffe, Bristol, to where Clara lives in Whitchurch is only 2 miles, I can walk that, but though we have planned many dates, we are yet to meet.

Today appeared to be out day to meet, after a dozen cancelled dates, but Fate stepped in with a kitchen fire at Clara's. She is adamant, we shall meet. I am more certain we will not
