Last of the ABC’s….W,X,Y AND Z

Finally at the end of my ABC.

W

Wales is a place I used to visit when my dear friend S lived there, first in Bassaleg then Newport. Used to get the train to Reading then through to Newport on the Cardiff train.Used to take the children as they were small.

Travelling down on time just to attend a special birthday.

W is also for World…….this planet that we are living on……in these crazy times of Covid. Will it ever get back to what was called “normal”…..I will leave that up to you.

In my time I have discovered parts of the world……the man in the street with my penpal hobby. People I know longer write to but I will never forget Mary Lou from America and Sing from Hawaii. Ones I still have…..Anna in Sweden and Oase in the Falkland Islands….and Facebook help to travel the world to…….video chatting to Peter in Denmark and Dianne and Kevin who both live in America.

X

Not many words can think of beginning with this letter.

Xmas…..I much prefer the proper word…Christmas.I hate a card with Merry Xmas on it but love hot X buns especially the spiced apple ones froM/S.

Y

Youth…where has it gone?. The dark brown hair turned silver……but I can hide that with pink. The eyes have faded…..but you can see with your specs. You slow down and don’t walk as fast….. cannot do anything about that. Bones hurt and you get stiff….you get ages spots and extra bits of skin grow. As the saying goes “Old Age is Not for Sissies”

Z

That’s it…I have come to a full stop. Cannot think of a single thing to write about that letter.

What I would like are some suggestions as to what my views/comment et about anything you wish
