It appears be the case that I am a married curmudgeon (according to some), who loves riding motorbikes and my wife (deliberate innuendo – duh!), but mostly I love my wife (now and again), who has not been well lately. She is the rock of my life and sometimes the rocks in my pocket when I feel like swimming in a different way, but all ships need ballast to stay on a true course and I guess she must be mine, for she has been a long time in the hold.
I really am in mixed metaphor mode today, but I guess you know what I’m going to say Wazbag. I hope you get a bit better (and thinner) and enjoy your holiday in Egypt. Don’t swap your sister for a camel - she’s worth two goats at the most.
For you readers out there (who I am guessing must be sat on the edge of my very own event-horizon, for I currently see none of you at all), I would like to show that I am not a totally irreverent malcontent by revealing a poem of mine from last year's valentines day. Not too bad after 28 years service.

| The real deal - lovely |
There's a ring of truth upon my finger
protecting me from the past.
A ring of contentment white with age
for evermore to last.
A sign of fidelity
confirming reality,
in a groove of mutated skin,
proving my tears
after all these years,
are only wept for you.
There's a ring of truth upon my finger
fusing my soul to yours.
A golden truth, for all to see,
a bonding force twixt you and me,
a cover for still youthful skin
a proof of love, through thick and thin.
