Not a direct relation Christopher, maybe our family trees crossed branches in the distant past, he was a fine poet/novelist, this full moon phenomenon, I believe has a weird influence over people’s outlandish behaviour, cheers David

As strange as the moon's effects are, it does appear to drive some people crazy, so you're right, David. When the howling starts, we know there's a full moon overhead. I hope you're having a good weekend.

Hello Lasaad, I really believe some people return to a feral state of mind, when a full moon’s overhead, we are peculiar creatures indeed, I’m enjoying the weekend hope you are too, cheers David

Heya Michael, Werewolves driving cars, at the store, out jogging, under the lunar influence, a strange phenomenon indeed, brings them all out, cheers David

The moon can influence some people, you know its a full moon when you hear the howling. Hope your weekend is going well David. Just back from Wales, been travelling again. Tom

I’m telling you Tom when out and about over here on a full moon evening, lunacy seems to influence a certain element of the population, where they come from I’ve no idea, I’m off to the US on Monday so looking forward to the break, you’re always on the move, way to go, cheers David
