Poem 27 was co-written with Jonathan, online. This one we did line by line, pushing each other to test the surrealist boundaries. He wrote using a spelling board by moving his eyes. What fun we had!

Words & Pictures: Sam on Boffs' Island Got to love a bit of Postgate and Firmin 🙂
In the early 1970s I co-devised, co-wrote a teaching to read BBC Schools TV series called 'Sam and Boff's Island'. It was based on phonics, songs and fantasy starring Miriam Margolyes, Tony Robinson, John Faulkner, Sandra Kerr, with animation by Oliver Postgate and Pete Firmin

#Fledge During the height of the 2020 pandemic, Fledge (a short collection of wild urban poetry) was published by Maytree Press. All plans to have a proper launch were scuppered and we decided to release the book via Zoom. Here's a record of that event: youtube.com/watch?v=shFwg5nf…
