I felt free up in my penthouse. Then you began your conquering drive.  You called it a chicken coup, a birdhouse.  My senses were all on overdrive. I was half-asleep, off-guard,  but you with your trickery had a scheme  to invade, starting from the courtyard.  You and your charms made a formidable team. You had tracked me down,  using terrestial - and celestial means.  Do I stay or leave town?  My home was no longer my castle. Smoke and burglar alarms hadn't worked.  My security was betrayed.  You advanced like a conquering horde.  Was this real, or was I being played? The lift was out of order;  no sign of the maintenance crew.  How had you climbed my tower?  Like a peregrine falcon, you flew? On the balconies you got a foothold.  Super Woman! Spider Woman!  You scaled the walls of my stronghold,  the crowds below cheered you on. I looked out from my belvedere.  You must have used a side entrance....

  I stand on the Green Waiting to be seen But somehow you don't  I stand by the road So you can load me But somehow you won't I may not be art But I play my part with your help,  That's a start ... ⁉️😕 Sonorous Snoop Jan 2025

 Well what’s a Ball-Hillian? You may ask the question. They`re one in a million! They’ve helped with congestion. They see you there with a quizzical look! You are perplexed, as they clean up muck! A number of teams are on various quests, To serve Ball hill, to do their best, A Ball-Hillian takes pride in where they live, They give up time, they try to give. Litter picking, surveys no time to chill They keep areas clean up on Ball hill, Environment aware, they’re a friendly bunch A Ball-hillian cares thats the crunch! Ball-hillians focus on air that we breath, traffic is huge, verging on heave. Too many cars, congestion is rife. Affect our lungs, affect our life! An Eco team tackle the causes, Produce solutions, but battle the Tories! Earlsdon receives money in the pot. Why can’t Ball Hill be given a shot? Not much to ask, be a fairer approach, For council to not pilfer, intrude and poach. Parking’s an issue but that’s not strange. Ball-hillians ideas are simple in range. A walking ...

Gosford Green Park is a bloody disgrace! The people who attend it portray the human race; When looked after it is nurtured and nourished; But the park cannot even begin to flourish; It has come to a standstill for the babies and kids; There is nothing to play on; But rubbish and pizza lids; The idea of a climbing frame for the younger ones is futile; An accident waiting to happen!  A calamity in style!! The council removed all the important equipment; Due to health and safety within the system: But what about replacing the features of play? To engage and enrich our children of today; The council informs me in my various calls; That it is down to `lack of funds`, but I say `Balls! ` Why does Primrose Park have a `make over `twice? Gosford  Green is left behind, this is not suffice! Gosford Green is central in our lives; Walking dogs, a game of football, some exercise! The area surrounding Gosford Green is being enhanced; Would it not make sense to upgrade the park for a more q...
