Thrown Out
A wonderful , but sadly missed friend of mine used to run quizzes many years back , usually based on film, and thanks to him I met a lot of people by joining quiz teams on the fly. It was a great way to meet new people and have a great fun night.

Immortals
Today one of the albums I played while working was βThe North Star Grassman and The Ravensβ by Sandy Denny who we lost when she fell in 1978 at the age of 31, less than half my age. And I was listening to this wonderful music more than forty years after she had left this plane. I have chosen her most beautiful song to lead this piece , but this is just one of many songs.

My First Read Dollar
I started on Vocal on 18th of April 2021 with this post and in two months I have earned just over a dollar for reads. This may not sound much and for anyone just here to make money may not sound too enticing, but the benefits of being here are really worth the membership.

A Cautionary Covid-19 Tale
On the way back from town I had an idea for a short story, which may not be to everyone's taste but every story needs an idea, and this is just a straight draft , no editing , just coming out of my mind. Whether that is the best way to write or it is acceptable is up to you the reader.

REUSE not Recycle
The other day I got a knock on the door from someone selling something. I normally donβt bother as they seldom sell something that I want, but this guy was a milkman from McQueens Dairies who was offering deliveries in reusable glass bottles.

On Writing ... on Vocal
Yes, itβs a nod to the Stephen King title which I have never read, so maybe I should. Writing on Vocal is possibly like a microcosm of trying to publish a book or magazine article and as such is excellent for writing discipline.

Playing for PRIDE
I always think that playlists are a little lazy, this is because of my age and I remember doing cassettes for friends and girlfriends to share the music that mattered and obviously these had to be put together in real time and could only really be shared with one person , or put on at a party. You could also do a tape for the car , so any passengers would be treated to your musical taste (or lack of).
