What I Do When I'm Not Doing What I Do....

Because this time of year can be quiet for me and i'm not going into so many school it means i have time to do other things. Here are some of the other things i've been dong. I have got a Blackberry and am trying my best to get better at using it. Its an amazing thing really, a magic gizmo,you can get apps for it, take pix and everything man!! I'll try and put sme photos up when i can. I have aso been doing a lot, no, a load of walking. I did the Calderdale Way, a 54 mile walk all around Halifax which was fantastic. I grew up in halifax but on the walk i saw parts of it i never knew were there, so that was great. and the sun shone for 4 days!! Today i did a bit of the Kirklees Way, another big walk all around Huddersfield. When i walk i think and when i think i make stuff up so walking is great for me, what wiv being a poet like innit!!And i have been writing as lot, infact my new book POETRY BURP should be out , touch wood, in a couple of weeks so thats always exciting. I also made another radio documentary for BBC Radio Leeds called Away With Words which got on radio 4, a national station. I was dead chuffed with it. So not visiting schools every day does mean i can do other things so its all grand. The school visits take off again in a week or with schools in Rotherham, Gateshead, Blackpool, Norton and Cookridge in Leeds then i go to Belfast in Northern Ireland for a week. So back on the road soooooon!!!!
