This is something that Marmilady gave me the first paragraph for. 'See what you can come up with from this' she said. So this is it, not at all what I had intended when I started to write, but something clicked in my head and it felt right. This is what suddenly came to my mind, something I needed to write. Thank you Kay. He stood at the cliff's edge, his heart as dark as the storm clouds above him. Below the sea crashed and caressed the rocks ...
...Life had not been easy recently .... The lure of peace beat in time with the crash of the waves ... would it be so bad to simply walk off the precarious ledge he now stood upon?............. His eyes stared out at the violent beauty of angry nature, but his mind wasn't there. He didn't see the dark clouds roil and merge, driven by the unceasing west wind. He was untouched by the brilliance of sudden flashes of lightning, deaf to the crash of thunder ...

...Everyone was dead friendly, and everything was cheap. Cool. Reminded me of Spain, way back in the eighties, before it was spoiled. I drank a lot of coffee and indulged my passion for buying maps. I got used to being single, which was hard, a little bit interesting, but mostly sad. After a few weeks I flew back to London and went looking for my wife – she was the same girl who had been my ‘first kiss’ all those years ago. There were a few heartfelt ...

There was a time a year or two ago when they were reconstructing my face when I had my head grafted on to my shoulder. I wanted to die then. I ...

Yesterday I had my first experience at fainting. It was quite scary as I didn't know what had happened or have any idea of the length of time which had passed. Fainting seems to be one of those things that everyone has a very basic idea of why they happen, and how to treat them, and yet people's views on how to deal with it still differ at the same time. °°°Intro°°° Fainting is related to your heart, circulation, blood pressure and breathing, and ...

More than one thing may be the cause of fainting and sometimes a specific cause will not be found. °°°My story°°° I was working in a chemistry practical lesson, measuring out chemicals to use in the experiment. All of a sudden, my hands started to shake. It wasn't excessively, but enough that you could see a slight tremble. ...

I've been pondering for a while now how to mark the occasion of writing my 500th Ciao review and after having dismissed a lot of other possibilities I have decided to write about what is most important to me - my family! Also, as in many ways it is because of them and their likes and dislikes that I have been able to write so many reviews they probably deserve it. My family unit consists of me, my husband, our two gorgeous daughters Rachel and Natalie, ...

I didn't meet my husband Simon until I was in my thirties and I think that most of my friends and family were despairing of me meeting anyone that I would eventually settle down with.

A TRIBUTE For the world in general the period of 1939 and 1945 signifies one of the greatest conflicts the world has ever seen, the Second World War. This conflict scourged almost the entire world and sweeping in its wake just about every nation on the face of the Earth. However, at the same time there was a concurrent conflict that had its roots in the Second World War, but which was independent from the strife of the war outside: Finland's the ...
...the Second World War proper has never been all that close to me; like a historical phase that has touched on the rest of the world, but not my people. Instead we had the Winter War that became to signify something that would forever be viewed as the mark of the indomitable spirit that is at the heart of the ideologies of my country and which is looked back at with pride. The purpose for my little paper here is to offer my small tribute to this conflict ...

This type of market is said to have carried on right up until 1850 at which ...

Sadly our beloved pet cat Felix was knocked down and killed by a car at the weekend. I am not one for writing soppy reviews, however, it affected me more than I thought it would and, although, at first, it appeared my 9 year old Son had dealt with the tragic situation well, a few sleepless nights later, we realised he hadn't ! So...how to deal with it....we decided to sit down and write about him, this is what we came up with, written to Felix from ...

Whenever my mum called you, you used to run away....Hee hee, but whenever I called you, you used to come running and curl around my legs purring, or rather making that funny sort of gurgling noise that no other cat makes. You really were the fluffiest cutest thing, with a ginormous fluffy, squirrel tail, longer than you...it was really funny the way ...

...of crap left from creating everything else and threw it all together. Skaters: The name is a bit misleading, Skaters can also be Moshers or BMXers, but the gist is the same. They are outdoorsy types who are, for the most part, perfectly nice friendly people.

The typical music of choice for a stereotypical Skater would be bands like Puddle of Mudd, System Of A Down, Sum 41, Green Day, Foo Fighters, Good Charlotte or Nickelback.

Alternate weeks we run a Karaoke, but that is another story, last Friday was disco night. I serve behind the bar and the queue is long to start with as people buy their drinks and snacks, ...
