It really depends who has made me feel happy, sad, angry or in love. Simple as that. Sometimes I write about places, where I have lived, like Italy and Pollok.

It all really began when I watched a three hour documentary on Dolly Parton. I thought,
"If Dolly can do it, then so can I!"

I used to hang out in the play ground with my walk man, listening to Jim Diamond. I was in the Spar shop in Buchlyvie and heard his music playing in the background, and not knowing who he was at the time; I asked the lady that owned the shop " who is that?" and after a bit of pleading and begging he said I could take the tape away with me. It was Jim Diamond. thank god I asked!

My dad used to drive me and my 4 sisters and my mother to Italy every year. He played Dr Hook mainly on the car stereo. So I learnt nearly every word. I loved them!

May the blessing of light be on you - light without and light within. May the blessed sunlight shine on you like a great peat fire, so that stranger and friend may come and warm himself at it. And may light shine out of the two eyes of you, like a candle set in the window of a house, bidding the wanderer come in out of the storm. And may the blessing of the rain be on you, may it beat upon your Spirit and wash it fair and clean, and leave there a shining pool where the blue of Heaven shines, and sometimes a star. And may the blessing of the earth be on you, soft under your feet as you pass along the roads, soft under you as you lie out on it, tired at the end of day; and may it rest easy over you when, at last, you lie out under it. May it rest so lightly over you that your soul may be out from under it quickly; up and off and on its way to God. And now may the Lord bless you, and bless you kindly. Amen.
—Scottish Blessing

Not the bee upon the blossom,
In the pride o' sinny noon;
Not the little sporting fairy,
All beneath the simmer moon;
Not the Minstrel in the moment
Fancy lightens in his e'e,
Kens the pleasure, feels the rapture,
That thy presence gies to me. Rabbie Burns.. so does coal

Is the floors dry and can the dogs come in?
