Thats bloody great Giles, and exactly my kinda town - open, welcoming, a little frightening, underpinned by urban myth and enjoyed by for, in whatever way they fancy.

What a wonderful place everything you described would be. Not perfect. Just normal life.

Loved the poem!

Thank you for the great compliments, Mark. 💜

Yeah, I think a lot of us would really enjoy such a place.

I think we’d all love it!

This is incredible. It is how you rhymed folks with windows in a statement that is only separated by fragments that caught me off guard, nice.

Thanks a million, Chi. Your words mean a lot 💜

Support your local hippies indeed! Good read, it really immersed me in the setting of a town everyone wants to live in, the kind I’d want to move to at least.
