Retired. Now writing and publishing light-hearted poetry and short stories. Singing folk music in local pubs, especially Appalachian dulcimer

Just finishing off third poetry book to follow 'Little Rhymes with Crich' and 'Nothing Rhymes with Crich'. To be called 'Crich Rhymes with Nothing' unless can think of something more pithy. Out in the Autumn, all profits in aid of Crich Youth Club.

[Martyn Offord @MartynOfford]

Predictive text!! These puffins were posters not losers.

[Martyn Offord @MartynOfford]

These guys are real losers. Orkney

In 40 years this is the longest I've ever been without getting to Gozo. Reduced to reading my own book 'Father Jacko's Gozo Stories' to get some warmth and sunshine. @Faraxabooks #Gozo #Malta #shortstories @AirMalta
