Words That Dance Off The Laptop Into The Silent Clouds

Although I have provided a steady stream of articles since April 2006 the 'feedback' has been sparse. The comment boxes often gather dust. The silence is sometimes unnerving.

My posts vary from the informative snippet to  the pompous piece but I have got something out of them; my research skills have improved as has my style, even if it is  only from a bad one to the nearly good!  But what do you get out of the articles - if anything?

I seldom get a criticism even though I am sometimes a bit of a know all that in reality knows very little. Come on rip into my pompous pontificating and let me know what you think.

  2. Hi Patarckless,
    I recall the name Loretta Mcquillan. I believe she is mentioned a few times on this site.

  3. Pity I missed this posting but we lived at 44 and of course knew all the M'Quillens very well. The mother was a lovely lady Gurty and old Tommy. I remember as a kid taking a buscuit for Tommy because I knew he was poorly - little did I know just how poorly he was.
