All’s Well That Ascends Well.
All’s hell that pretends swell
As You Make of It
As you strike it
Comedy of Terrors
Comedy of Worriers
Love’s Labour costs
Love names the cost
Leisure for treasure
Merchants who Menace
Merry Lives rinsed here
Midsummer Night’s Schemes
Much to do about Laughing
The Taming of the Crew
The blaming of Doctor Who
The Hen Pissed
The Hens kissed
Gay hens play
The Twelfth Delight
Two Gentlemen who keep roaming
Winter Failed again
Winter trialed again

MYSTERIES

Henry IV, Farts 1 and True
Henry Jived!
Henry Returns
Henry comes again
Henry VI keeps coming
Henry goes Straight
Kings Gone
Chariot Keys
Richard came too
Richard Revived.
Richard got blurred.
Kings Reunited

TRAVESTY

Scant on in my pantry.
Hoary old anus.
Corio Lane is Us
Symbols and dreams
Symptoms are schemes.
Symbols have means
Jam tartlet
Sam startled
Julius teased her,
Julius pleased her.
Julius Wheezer
Bling Here
Fling here.
MacDeath
Homeo and crueller yet
Simon who baffles.
Simon who deafens.
Timon and again
Tight arses anonymous
Toilets are blessed for her.
Men all get kissed by her
King Dear.
Kings’ Tears.
Cling here
Fling Beer.

Shake your sphere!

Self-help was meant to make me feel better. Instead it turned toxic – and borderline dangerous

This is interesting but I don’t think she is right because many years ago I had a friend who had just done a degree in a modern language art Oxford and she had a breakdown and spent a whole year in a psychiatric unit but she told me that she was cured over depression after reading a book called born to win by Muriel James and someone else.

But also there’s something odd about buying hundreds of self-help books. If you read several and they don’t help you then it’s pretty plain that the rest are not going to help you either.

It’s terrible going through severe emotional suffering so anything that helps at all is very useful. But like bereavement these things have to be suffered and borne until they go away of their own accord

But like bereavement emotional traumas never go away but you learn how to live with them.

It’s like a journey through a horrible place that you just have to keep going on until you get through.

Brandy,in gin mixed with shandy

My friend called and asked for hot tea.
I said,dearest it’s alright by me.
You ought to drink brandy
In gin mixed with shandy…
but unethical tea is quite free

I like to know people’s desires..
Some like to collect copper wires;
some collect wool
and others tease bulls…
I soon will try playing with fire

Did you know that nude shoes are the fashion

St Augustine thought babies had sinned
As they came out of the vagina not in.
They might never know
but it’s wicked even so…..
A pity they are not sent out in a tin.

God can’t make any tinned goods.

Ravines don’t rave
Nor canyons’s behave….

It looked like a person’s name

When I looked to the list of my Gmail accounts I thought someone had hacked me because there was a name at the bottom of the list which I did not recognise.

I felt rather nervous about this wondering what to do

On further study I discovered that it said Choose another account

but in Indonesian so it looked like a person’s name

Why it was Indonesian I do not know although I have another blog on blogger which is read a lot by somebody in Indonesia.

It proves that if you can it’s better to try to find out about what’s worrying you rather than trying to forget about it and there was relieved to discover the meaning of this phrase

Well I am glad I found that out
