Rhona18: I am getting to grips with real old-age! I find that as the legs start playing truant other bits fill the gap. There is more time for reading - and writing . You feel you can be opinionated and people just put it down to being old and Accept your rumblings ......see what I mean!? |

Rhona18: I have actually had a book published. "The Memsahibs cookbook" -it was published by Piatkus and one or two are still in Amazon. It is basically a book on Ceylon, and Indian cooking. But it tells of the very young English ladies who went out there to live in the 1880s. I lived there in the 1950s -all very different. |

Rhona18: I live in a Care Home with a loft of dementia. Also many of us have extremely poor hearing. This does lead to some very strange conversation. I would love to share them. What category? They are very funny! |

Rhona18: I write poetry. I read poetry - a lot. I am ancient and in a beautiful Care Home that is on the Devon coast. Marvelous views, birds and people. Lots to write about. |

Believe me...the majority of people with good hearing, don't truly listen to oneanother ! I have spent time with many so-called 'dementia-beings' with poor hearing, but had more FUN, BETTER communication with them, than with many others, TRUE ! I can imagine your desire to share & in what category... Suggestion: extra-ordinary, funny conversations ! Why not OPEN a new door to ALL !? Bless them & you too, Love Sue xxx - | ||

Rhona18: I want to share poetry. When Write-buzz closed I felt high and dry - I enjoyed writing for a group of like-minded people so much.. I write poetry all the time. Even about wire and lap-tops!I love to read other people's visions. I miss not having that connection. I am very ancient! |
