Please Watch These Short Films - You can watch Here - Far from being dry, remote echoes of a long-gone age, each poem chosen for the collection feels like it could have been written yesterday.

And if we can understand this, perhaps it helps to put some of the problems of our modern world into perspective.

An intriguing tale of a bed bound girl, struck down by a mystery illness. Unable to even venture downstairs her only contact with the outside world is through her laptop and the webcams of the various people she watches, anonymously. Until, she becomes drawn in to a particular character and begins to share a little. Highly recommended - Frederika Kirsten Debrabant @ PHACEMAG

If you were to ask me how much I love this, well, the answer would be... An Awful Lot! It works on so many levels, leaving aside the genius PR...I don't mind that, I love Land Rover, even though I am writing this at my own expense ...
I have to admit, I wasn't aware of Veronica's work, until now! (call yourself a Land Rover fan...) The main thing for me is using such an iconic vehicle to inspire writing. Children writing about adventure, is something we need to promote, to keep this world still turning... Best pp xxx

I get sent a lot of emails, about this and that, but somebody mention 'British Apples and Pears'! The lovely Lily Soutter explains the benefits of pears, in particular to women during pregnancy.
If I'm honest what first caught my attention was : British Apple & Pears....Lily explains the nutritional value inside, but I love the fact that we are growing British Apple & Pears! - I don't want to undermine Lily, but surely everyone by now realises the health benefits of eating Apple & Pears? When you do, make sure they're BRITISH APPLE & PEARS! best pp x
