Switch off the light, close the door, Strictly's ended but the future holds more.... 
Whiffle - soixante-neuf questions! Could go either way.... Must have taken ages to compile that lot, well done!”
BIB Thank you very much BB, You, and others, have been so encouraging. It spurred me on to write more. Can't believe it's been just over six weeks since I wrote my first ever poem. Although there have been poems I've liked over the years, I would never have described myself as a fan of poetry. As for writing it: well, that would never have occurred to me.......until now. Yes, it would be nice if Jay popped in, and saw how much support he has, here on this thread. Doubt if he has the time, tho'.

Loving your epic work Rafferty (snipped for brevity). It will appear in the next edition of the poetry collection. 
Since each edition is an update of the previous one, including any corrections, you need only link to the most recent one. To the best of my knowledge, files don't expire on DropBox. 
If anyone can't access it on DropBox, just let me know and I can upload it to Google Docs as well.”
BIB Thank you very much DD. And thank you also for your magnificent work with the Poetry Collection. Fourth edition, already! It looks like such an enormous task to me. I can't imagine how you do it all. I've 'Saved it to Favourites'. So it's now in my elastic-sided Favourites bag, which is positively ballooning. I wonder how much it can take.
isih, StrictlyRed, Korky, ahouch, hannah, whiffle, Lola, Fred, Polly-T, and Jayfan.
Many thanks to you all for your kind comments in response to my recent poems. I have listed you in the order in which your posts appeared on the thread. Please forgive me if I have missed anyone. Thank you also to those I might have missed previously. As a newbie to poetry-writing, I very much appreciate your words of encouragement.
Hannah. I'm loving your poems, it's such fun isn't it?
I'm still darting between here and the previous Part (Part 5 was it?), trying to catch up. Beginning to think it's a bit of a hopeless task. But then the thought of leaving buried treasure, unearthed, keeps me going back, again and again, to read every post. Ho-hum. I've been the same since Part 1. #1.
