Is wearing spectacles a sign that the wearer is a watcher;

an observer of all things sporty and sporting?

Or does one, when donning specs, become the sport,

no longer a human being, but an entertainment,

an energising figment of an overactive imagination?

Freelance writer and descendant of the cave dweller and outlaw, Humphrey Kynaston. Banished from Shropshire for my eccentricity, I have made my home in Suffolk. I write poetry, short stories, travel journals, comedy gig reviews and non-fiction articles. My wish is to write my way back into the heart of my birth land. All writing commissions (and free holidays in Shropshire!) considered.
