Panto Time
Hello Poetry Lovers It’s Pantomime season and the lovely Trisha Broomfield and I saw Robin Hood at the Yvonne Arnaud theatre last week. (Oh no we didn’t!)

Clever poet Trisha has summed this mood up so succinctly thatContinue reading “Panto Time”

Dear Cat
Hello Poetry Lovers One of my favourite subjects features today. I think you can guess from the title which it is!
