Me crossing the stage
I was so concerned that I was clapping for everyone else that as I was crossing the stage I clapped myself, then realised and mouthed why am I clapping myself to the Pro Vice Chancellor – she laughed with me and said I was allowed too (I felt like a bit of an idiot but laughing about it).

Poem accepted
A poem I wrote for the Open University course A363 has just been accepted at Every Day Poets (http://www.everydaypoets.com/) – not sure when it is being published. Had to make a slight adjustment for them so now is a slight twist on the Villanelle form. The title is The Gradual Loss of Me so look out for it.
At the same time had a rejection for another poem I wrote in repsonse to a a challenge on Slingink – think I may try elsewhere though because I like it. It was in response to a news story about Woodstock – may have been in more luck if I’d written in earlier. Ah wel – acception/rejection – keeps me all level headed.
