Lizzie stood in the sand in her bra,
And tried to lasso a parked car.
Some thought it was clever,
But I think I've never
Seen anything quite so bizarre.

GB, if I had real talent I'd be rich and famous by now! But you're very kind, and welcome to what I've got (if you can think of a way of getting hold of it...)
I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..

DeleteShe's doing it with real attitude though - that must count for something?
