I wonder if a mediocre moon
Posted on Mon, 16 Sep 2024
I wonder if a mediocre moon is also a dressing-gown moon? It gets up and thinks, no, not tonight, really can't be bothered, I'm just going to sit in my dressing-gown and eat my own crackers. Let them say what they like.

It must be hard for a politician, having to halve your vocabulary so you only use 'acceptable' words for what is going on. Having to tread on eggshells in case an inappropriate word can lose you the party whip or the business that war is good for...

There's little more magical than a bedtime story, and you've captured that perfectly here! I insisted on telling/reading bedtime stories to my kids for as many years as I possibly could - never mind them, I loved it!

This is really interesting, Harry, and a really valuable resource. The myths can be so destructive. My daughter has epilepsy and the things people believe about that can still astound me.
As insert says, well done on giving the workshops...

This is lovely, Rhiannon. I love looking at the clouds and seeing landscapes and castles and all sorts of animals. Unfortunately my desk is by the window so it's a real distraction when I'm meant to be working!

I was enjoying this all the way through, and then your last line was so good. A lovely touch of humour, but also with a lot of thoughtfulness. I love it when the IP produces something as quirky and individual as this.
