Still getting to grips with it all and never cease to amaze how you can say so much with so few words. Tom

For real, been there and done it, and as we were on manoeuvres/an army training exercise, it was not so nice. It was something we had to endure until dawn. No doubt you've seen wildlife on telly sunning themselves come morn, well that was us, you wouldn't believe how cold desert nights get. Thanks Anne-Lise... Mick :-)

Lovely one liner Mick, sadly it nearly got lost with the change of page layout and all those damned adverts... no wonder people give up here:-(

Thanks for the compliment. Re the adverts, (and this is not intended as a hint), ;-) if you go here https://www.poetrysoup.com/member_area/poets_i_follow_poems.aspx it is not quite so cluttered. In fact, as you scroll down there are none. I will be going premium, just a question of priorities at the moment. hugs Mick
