The Typewriter
Looking through the junk in the house clearance, he wondered what it was. The only keyboard he had ever seen was virtual, on his phone, tablet and computer. He had never seen or even been aware of physical keys but this was an odd contraption with physical keys and he set it on a table.

Oh No It's Michael Bublé
Introduction and Background You may think this is because I don’t appreciate Michael Bublé but you would be wrong. Last week I was in the Talbot Arms in Settle and they were playing a Michael Bublé Christmas album and every song sounded like it had had all the life sucked out of it by a lounge jazz vampire, and that lounge jazz vampire’s name is Michael Bublé.

A Ukrainian Flag On Castleberg Crag
The war in Ukraine is still going on, and I was heartened to see the Ukrainian Flag, Blue and Yellow Flying over Castleberg Crag. That thought was a self-writing Haiku and therefore a fourth entry from me to the Blue Haiku Challenge on Vocal. I also included the Pink Floyd song - Hey Hey Rise Up (feat. Andriy Khlyvnyuk of Boombox) which if you buy a copy donates to the cause.

A Walk From Settle To Scaleber Foss
Steep Slopes In Settle Steps in Settle Settle is not a place to drive but almost every place seems to have a unique construction, in the centre every house, shop and whatever is a different construction. Settle is full of steep hills which must really test the handbrakes of parked cars, but these can be navigated but must be hellish for someone who is disabled or unfit. Even I feel it when I am walking back to April Cottages from the Co-Op via Robin Hill.

What Is A Muse?
Introduction This is my own personal interpretation of what a Muse is to me, others may and do see the interpretation differently. I am slightly worried that I have touched this subject several times before but I think it is always good to revisit the things that inspire you to create things.
