Teeth Tales - Woohoo Thirty Two
I agree with ScoZen and Luigi we need some more entries for this challenge. So in the interest of quantity over quality here's my second one. Inspired by Blur's Song 2. (And yes, hampsteads really is cockney rhyming slang for teeth).

Lost in Translation
Not long after my mother was widowed (not my father, this was two husbands in), I persuaded her to come on a short holiday with me. We decided on...

Small Things Like These
Posted on Sun, 18 Jan 2026
When I was growing up in Southampton there was a place called 'Nazareth House' which was a home for 'unmarried mothers', where most if not all of the girls were Catholic teenagers. I remember the nuns who ran it coming to our house collecting...

Mums
Posted on Thu, 08 Jan 2026
Your mum was roughly contemporary with mine (1927 – 1993), Jenny. It's wonderful that you remember her with such tenderness and love.
My sister, who is religious, believes that she will see our mum again, and that must be very comforting...

Posted on Sat, 28 Mar 2026
Well personally I'm very fond of films and books which don't tie it all up in a neat bow at the end. Leaving the readers to make their own deductions - they'd have to be better at it than Tubby Milton can manage.

Posted on Wed, 25 Feb 2026
Like Turlough, you have the gift of bringing the mundane to life and making it fascinating, Harry. And funny. And sad. And, in this case, just a bit spooky too. Good writers can make great stories out of apparently very little material, and...

Hi Jane
This is very intriguing ! Looking forward to what is going to happen to them next.
I think there are a few places where it says 'sight' when it should say 'site' ? As in 'go around the edge of the sight only'. I think...

Like Harry I really look forward to your Bulgarian blog too. Am a little worried about Ludo not getting a mention. I know he must be on about number twelve of his nine lives, so I hope he's ok.
