Hi, You mentioned James Taylor, I'd forgotten how good he is/was. I used to love hearing him, and of course, accompanying him, especially if I'm driving! Can't understand why his words were usually different from mine!!

Neat idea, simple but clever. Useful too!

Too vague and not committed.

I've seen some nice shoes in a Pavers shop so would love to win this prize.

Always fancied one of these!

Have been using inadequate lights for a long time, these would be great.

My rancid slippers are due to be shot in my back garden, new ones would be lovely!

Would get some nice whisky for Christmas (me, actually!!).

We loved this on tv but did miss a couple. We used to record them and binge watch a few at a time. Fantastic series.

Sounds like a very interesting read, I'm curious!

Love your prize draws, never won anything yet but will carry on trying!

I've a friend who iin New Zealand and he loves living there, so we'd love a chance to visit.

Looks great! We have a basic one at the moment but this would be lovely!

I enjoy slipping off to another dimension at the end of the day, dipping into a nice book or watching a good film. Sounds good, fingers crossed!

We're well overdue a new mattress, big dip in the middle now.

If you could guarantee the £10k went towards a house, then yes, if they showed commitment and contributed the majority of the mortgage. But definitely no, if not, it'd just be squandered.

We shop in Morrisons anyway so would give that £50 voucher, a good home! Merry Christmas

Hi, Ive had 3 cortisone injections in my knees. The relief is only temporary but now, I need more or some surgery as nothing seems to help. I take 2 x 500mg paracetamols which helps, but Ive been given 30 mg codeine but they block me up terribly. Good luck, neil

Sounds like a nice little break, fingers crossed!!

Love your articles. Keep them coming. I save your emails for when I can sit and enjoy them. Always a good read!

Yes, It all came flooding back to me! Hadnt realised that I was that much older than those celeb's born that year! I was 18 in '75, actually didnt think I'd ever get past 25, thought I'd burn out by then, as life was so much fun and I felt invincible! Telling my young uns yesterday, that I'll be 60 in 13months time and they were gobsmacked! Like everyone my age, we've lost lots of friends and relatives on the way, have experienced happy and very sad times, upset others and have been upset ourselves, but have lived to fight another day, so here's to the next 20! Merry Christmas and a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year to you all!!

Would be nice to win one of these, much better than my android phone for the internet

Never come in wrong! Most of ours have died over the last few years, looks a decent, well designed piece of kit!

Hi Clare, Im loving your poetry. Never thought I'd ever be saying that! They're written from the heart and from experience. I can visualise as I read because I've been there. Well done, enjoy your retirement and keep them coming! All the best, Neil

That was really nice and heartfelt. Being 59 now, as Im sure lots of folk my age have also,I've lost a few close relations and friends. Some, we never totally recover from who leave a permanent void in our hearts. Your poem reminded me of that. Keep writing!

I really enjoyed your poem " Next". Never been any good at poetryapart from rhyming a coupl e of lines together. Love telling stories and used to enjoy writing them. Im going to save the other samples on the site until later when I've more time. Well done and enjoy your ' new career'! Neil

Have entered the competition, not that I expect to win, but as my old mate used to say""youve got to be in it to win it!"Good luck everyone!

Would be a nice break after my recent expensive emotional divorce

I too have had menieres for over 20 years now and suffer tinnitus and the usual thickening in the ear/head but as yet, no hearing aids! Doesnt help when hearing specialists tell you your hearings average for someone "your age"!
