Well done JP - any one of these lines could have been used in a crossword clue to define, initially, the shop owned by the woman who subverted democracy in Westminster (you have to know your 1980’s political history for this to make sense). I believe Lady Porter is alive and at large living in Israel, but could be wrong. I don’t think she paid her council tax before she went, or was it millions in fines?

You went for the sonnet form of poetry and were hampered by your obsession with a well known chain of supermarkets, but you must be praised for the thought. I’m no archivist of these pages, but do we often get poetic contributions to TW?

I would suggest a closed season, sorry, window, poetry festival for our beloved site if it didn’t put too hard a burden on the editorial team filtering out contributions of the

"Roses are red, Roses are white, Everton’s blue, Redshite is shite" variety.

Cultured football, cultured comment - I’m all for it.

Is David Kipps related to Paola Kipps playing for Benefica’s youth team ?

Think John should get a life or a girl-friend if he has time to mess about writing slogans spelling Tesco, he ain’t got much of a life!!

Patty , I’m sorry but I spent a whole 30 minutes of my life writing that experimental piece. Some people watch soaps , some do gardening I like to write. I am surprised at the variety of responses and appreciate that it was at least read by somebody. By the way Patty what are you doing tonight? (lol)
