It's always an amazing thing to see a book out there in the world. :)

Ah no way! That's made my week! Thank you very, very much. I hope there are a few poems in there for you. :)

Thanks a million for sharing this poem, Sophie (@sonicscrewup.bsky.social‬). I really appreciate it. :)

Holy moly I'm going to aim for that third state! Thanks so much for taking the time to read the poem and for your birthday wishes, Rebecca. :)

Thanks so much for sharing. :)

Thanks for giving it a read, Tress. :)

Maybe it'd be worth a go. You might find they come easy... :)

Ah no, writing the stuff is the easy bit. Getting it out there is almost impossible! :)

It's beautiful to be thankful to your younger self for having such pure hopes. I love that. Thank you for sharing this. :)

Thanks a million, Dusti! :D

Hopefully we'll be better prepared for 60!

Ah, I think that's the most recent book. It's kind of a compilation of poems that were published in The Opiate Magazine and a bunch of newer poems. I hope there's a few in there for you.

Thank you very much for ordering a copy. It's an amazing thing and I really, really appreciate it. :)

But the right side of 70! Thanks for giving the poem a read, Gary. :)

I've never heard of Friday Follow either! I don't really spend much time on social media so it's probably not much of a surprise. But a lot of people seem to have read the poem which is thanks to you! I can't believe it! Thanks again, my friend. :)

Thanks a million! :D

That makes sense... What are we going to be like when we hit a century??? :D

Wow, that's very kind of you. I hope they don't let you down. As If It Meant Something is the best value at the moment at a fiver (less than half price) on Amazon.co.uk right now. :)

I'll try to take a leaf out of your book. Thanks for giving the poem a read. :)

Thanks a million for giving the poem a read, Charles. :)

I don't think any of us are old inside. At least that's what I'm telling myself! Thanks, Linda. :)

Cheers, Mike. 50 does feel different. I don't remember 30 or 40 hitting as hard. Still, that's how things go I suppose. :)

Thanks a million, Julian! :)

I'd like to be a little niftier! But I know I am very lucky. Thanks so much, Vanessa. :)

I'm adopted too but I don't have your brother's wisdom! What a great line! Thanks again, Lisa. :)

Thanks so much, Lisa. I hope the dreams were happy ones. The circle of life and the passing of time is about the scariest thing there is.

That's true...thank you for reminding me. :)

A whole lot of people have gone before you. You'll be okay. :)

It's an amazing thing that you have come close to the live you dreamed of when you were 15! Wow, that's lovely. :)
