Well ive got two or three im tryin to finish, "Dont get Angry get even" "Trouble at home" and a couple with no Strawberry Saucetles just riffs/tune* A mate of mine asked me to put music to his poems once but i explained they were too long and drawn out with large fancy words which i found a struggle to fit in.

Sounds good. Can't wait to hear them, I like the stuff you write about. Yer made me chuckle on the poem thing...I can see that not working too easily. I used to write poems with the daft idea I could turn them into some wonderful song. They weren't really poems, they were more like song lyrics but I never did anything with them. I also used to write music on the piano with no lyrics....never quite put it together... No ones said then.... "Will you write a song about me?"

Aye I knew ya'd written about people...many songs spring to mind...but didn't know if anyone had ever actually asked you if you would write about them or dedicate something to them etc etc If I knew someone really well who was a songwriter I'd love them to write about me, lasting legacy and very personal thing I think

Oh Superior Force Of Nature, no that's a real tough one and probably an emotionally draining process...
