Had a very vivid dream last night that I have remembered and written notes on. Great possibility for a short adult story involving bittersweet time travel. I will let you know how it develops.

I have just done another update on the Magician story and sending to another couple of young people and two adult friends for comments and then will try to see if I can persuade a publisher!

I have also started writing something on Sporting theme that is hopefully different and how it has touched me, it may come to nothing but those of you who may remember my idiosyncratic football reports for the Stroud News (I was always given a theme that I had to incorporate in my reports at the end of a game!) or some of you may recall my tongue in cheek offerings for the old Luton Fanzine “Mad as a Hatter”-well samples of both are likely to feature if this project develops. It will also include a political dimension, I always felt on the outside of the sporting mainstream of the time (still do)  because of my views e.g. as a cricket lover I was firmly in the anti-apartheid group when all you heard at cricket matches was sport and politics shouldn’t mix-I did flounce out of one or two bars over this and shout abuse at Mike Gatting and co! My football perspective has always been odd and almost the dinosaur like-e.g. I always make a point and will say “top flight football” instead of Premier League, I resented Sky giving the impression that football only started in 1992!  I will try to write with humour even if it is from an old git’s perspective!
