New collection of poems envisaged

You have heard it here before, time constraints blocking poetic productivity. Nothing much has changed, it pains me to say. Yes, for to be sure, life is still busy and at times hectic and few are the hours where I can dedicate myself to my poetry endeavours. But, all is not lost as over the last year or so I have been putting together a slim volume of poems that deal with my leaving Bristol and settling down in my native Sydney. I think it's going to be a nice little book of poems. I have to see whether the LULU printer in Melbourne has sorted out its teething probs and then we're good to go, as the French say.

Gold, gold, gold

I am sure that for most of us it is true that we have, at some stage, dreamt of what it would be like to be rich, really rich. One of the images that are associated with real luxury and wealth remains the alluring commodity that is gold. With Monex you can invest in gold bars, gold bullion, coins, silver, platinum and palladium and many other products as well. Of course, as everyone knows, investing in gold is usually one of the safest options that will keep their worth in the future.

Actually, buying gold has been recognized for ages and ages as one of the most trusted ways to preserve one’s wealth and assets. And of course gold bullion is a unique investment. From time immemorial to more recent times, humankind has had an enduring affinity with gold bullion that has truly stood the test of time. In all ages and across the world, people have been fascinated with the beauty and the magic of gold. Nowadays the beauty of a gold bar must lie in its proven capacity to diversify investments, to protect wealth and also to preserve one’s purchasing power.
Gold is perennially a great investment and one on which you can rely now and in the future.

Fishy

Recently I saw a picture in a newspaper of a huge shark that they dragged up off the coast near Brisbane. This shark was of course a white pointer but the remarkable thing was that it had a huge bite taken out of its body by what must have been a truly enormous shark. The shark that had had a huge chunk bitten out of its rump was after all enormous itself. So, they warned people to stay clear of the waters around that area as a really scary white pointer must be lurking around. Forget about Spielberg's Jaws; down here it's real!
