If you previously read “Car Share Club” you will know it contains DARK MATERIAL.
I was browsing through The Buzzin’ Bee files, chanced upon the old version and spotted some anomalies.
This new version corrects these, I hope, and I think that this new layout with chapters may prove more readable.
Sorry, but the DARK MATERIAL is still there. It was what my Muse provided.

“Crescendo” is a wee tale about a man suffering from a bad cold.
Monday 15 February, 2016
“Snow Ghosts” is a little poem which I hope captures some of the wonder of a child’s first winter.

Ah, well, at last, something completely different.
Over the past few months I have been snagged again by BBC Scotland’s “Scotland 2016” each evening, Mondays to Thursdays. This current affairs show is followed immediately by BBC UK’s “Newsnight” programme.
This viewing has been running in its groove, on and off, or a few years and has become a habit, if not yet another addiction.
Generally the reports do not make for happy viewing.
As has been said, what goes in, must. . .regurgitate?
Maybe I will revert to my old ways and drift back to La La Land there to watch old films, that comfy place where I already know the Happy Ending.
In the meantime.... Try “Then and Now”

Today I have added two tales, both speed reads.
“Norbert’s Law” is a tale about a bent coppers.
“Driven” is about young people driving recklessly, every parent’s worst nightmare.
Sunday 14 February, 2016
Today I have added three tales, each nearly true.
“Winter Sun Seekers” tells of our trip to Tenerife in January 2016.
“Wee Wullie” tells of two overheard conversations on a bus.
“Brook” recalls an incident from my childhood, when I was 10 years old.
Dive in a enjoy!

Today I have added two read too stories for small children.
Perhaps they might be suitable for bedtime reading?
The first is called “Millie meets Ethan” and is a tale about who gets a birthday present of a huge cuddly toy called Millie the Spaniel.
The second is called “Harry Tallboy and Fairy Swish” and is about a boy who loves trains.
Both are available in hard copy, (free of charge), just let me know using the Contact Form.

Today I have added a short tale called “Stocking Filler”.
I have also added an upgraded version of “The Glasmigos”, a version which has benefited from the editing of my friend Kareth Paterson.
Monday 16 November, 2015
Today I have added “Race Night Nerves“ and “Best Served Cold”.
Both are tales of revenge.
I have also replaced “Fidelity“ with a new version edited by Kareth Paterson, a friend from Writers’ Circus who has been toiling in the fields - nae jungle - of my verbose prose for some time now.
This version is much tighter, fewer errors, I hope.
Any remaining clangers are of course down to me.

This is an off-beat tale of an urban fox in winter.
At 1,000 words,”While we were sleeping” can be devoured with morning coffee and a naughty biscuit.
