Minds Music Monday – C Moon Cry Like A Baby
It’s been an earworm for days. And well…I did a lot of crying yesterday. David would have called me a sook. And Jim would have said “will ya stoap yer greetin’!” So… And…it conjures up a lovely memory too.

EMBRACE THE SUCK?
Jim! Stop goading me! What am I meant to do with this? Geez…do you know how long it has been? Well, in case you don’t…TWENTY FIVE YEARS! Twenty five years since I’ve had sexual intercourse. Do you know what it is doing to me?! And then YOU….the man I would probably have a heart attack…
