this is my James Bond sinister overlord pic. snapped after sending two under performing underlings to the shark tank and about to reveal my master plan complete with shaky laser and large models. we used to know how to do master plan reveals. with AI it just doesn’t have the same impact on a foe.

if you’ve followed me here you will know I have a cat called Kaos. I have even included him in Prosepoem and musings on here.

last week he died. i miss my lap buddy. my late night writing buddy.

he was a stray that adopted us. a real personality. chaotic. it was his nature.

i’m late to this one but seems my early poetry work ‘Screaming In A Vacuum Jar’ was scraped for AI

i was joking the other day that my work was of so little value it hadn’t been scraped. i was wrong.

Revamped open planned pub in nondescript colour scheme. 11 craft beers on offer. We tried the Limoncello IPA from Ora. The toilets were fresh painted but extremely dark.

Ship and Pilot, Broad Street, #Ilfracombe, #EX34
Beer: 5/10
Toilets: 6/10

Just opened after a make-over making the whole pub like someone’s lounge with a penchant for shiny sofas. Had a locally brewed Beach beer which wasn’t much better than Tribute.

whilst I was in Bristol I watched balloons. Slow as a snail in the wet. did not visit bookshops. instead spent time with no. 1 to hear of enthusiastic adventures.
