Songs Of Moonlight
Introduction This was inspired because the moon lit up the bedroom in the Alnwick apartment. My photographs are not very good, but you can get the idea. I am a bit scared of the dark, so it was nice to be able to see my way around the room when it was dark.

Difficulties Of Holidays On Vocal
Introduction Last week I had a wonderful week in Alnwick, but tried to keep up on Vocal, although my time was less than I normally have, plus a little more difficult because I was using a ten-year-old laptop with a faulty keyboard (the space bar does not always register, meaning I have to keep going back to separate words).

How Many Words?
Nine months ago I published my first Vocal story “Coincidentally ... Ken Nordine” which I had lifted from my blog Seven Days In. It has had 40 reads logged against it, that is an average of one read per week. My least read piece has four reads partially because I never shared it on Social Media because it was such a downer piece but I need to get it out of my system and it sits there now as a warning of how not to be.

The Telling Bone
Introduction This was kicked off by Catweazle's name for the telephone. Catweazle was a medieval sorcerer who ended up in modern times (the nineteen seventies). The full episode is all over Youtube and most of my readers might not even recognise what he is holding as a landline telephone handset.

A Wander Back Through Vocal's Top Stories
Introduction I don't know what prompted this, although I did a piece on the history of Vocal's Challenges which I have included at the end of this story. I also was not sure how to approach this either, but how I have decided to do it is to include the first ever Top Story, the last Top Story at the time of publishing this, my own first and last (you got to do some self promotion) then one for each of the seven years that we have had Top Stories.
